Present yourself as fan and name your equivalent in a different fanbase (if multi-plat supporter put yourself in the console of prefference and name multi-plats with different preference). Then evaluate the fan before you as you see him.
I'm from the ps nation, respect and despise ms as competitor and have a soft spot for ninty as a younger goofy brother that I ignore the claims of auto-sufficience and importance. I aknowledge the strengths of my rivals, know their good games but don't care enough to play. Defend my platform of choice, seem as a troll and fanboy but am actually reasonable and capable of debate and assuming being mistaken.
My MS counterpart is sales2099 and nintendo is probably tbone1.
