I think the awful thing about fanboyism is that it forces polarization. You see people being goaded into fanboyish behavior by true fanboys, and it just seems to escalate from there. If your favorite game is Uncharted, or Halo, or Mario, and you see some nimrod come in and insult it for groundless reasons, then it does get under your skin. Pretty soon it becomes a back-and-forth round of insults. It's like a cancer or a virus.
I think that it's pretty clear the worst fanboys should be stamped out as soon as they are identified so that they do not infect the rest of the herd.
