1: Any criticism of your chosen love is a result of bias

2: The only defense is attack

3: You are an unpaid salesman

4: Ignore any positive comments, focus only on the negative

5: Call everyone else a "fanboy" before they call you one

6: Criticisms are old news, who cares?

7: Hit and run

8: Justify even the stupidest decisions/games

9: Resort to melodrama to make your point

10: Be a complete and total motherf---ing IDIOT!

I guess numbers 1., 2., 4., 5. and 8. are the ones I recognize the most. The other ones are just funny, I guess. =P

Random game thought :
Why is Bionic Commando Rearmed 2 getting so much hate? We finally get a real game and they're not even satisfied... I'm starting to hate the gaming community so f****** much...

Number 7 also happens a lot here. People post some illogical criticism, then never bother replying to people who contradict them, besides acting as if it never happened.
