Well, that is obviously where we differ. I don't just look at someone's likes or dislikes and instantly assume them to be a fan of a specific company, especially when they aren't on a gaming site.

You can be a hater/fanboy without being an expert or a member of a gaming site. I was a huge Nintendo fanboy prior to being part of this online community, then posting on vgchartz has changed me radically for the better.

You can like/dislike something and offer reasons, but it is highly unlikely to like EVERYTHING on one console and hate EVERYTHING on any other console. That is fanboyish. Over the years I've found some content I like on all consoles, some I dislike, and I have legitimate reasons for it and they are consistent. If I say I don't like something on one platform, I would dislike something on another platform for the same reason, no double-standards. People saying "this sux" or "that sux" without giving a reason makes it much more likely that they are a fanboy. It's a question of probability, you can never be 100% certain.
