It's messing up a lot of good threads now. People who did some mighty fine work in the OP end up having their thread destroyed because one guy states some absurbity, calling everyone who disagrees with him for a fanboy.

Now, I don't think he should be banned. That's not the type of site we want.

We should stop quoting the guy who said it, as that only fires up the conversation, and we should stop throwing out the word fanboy - every page now has the word fanboy written 5-15 times

Sorry for sounding so belearning

I agree. Harsher penalties should be brought in

You're right, the word gets overused a lot. We need to stop calling people fanboys and restrict ourselves to only calling fanboys fanboys.

I'd prefer the term fan of boys actually. =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...

I'm quite irritated with this as well. Fanboys? Just boys? Why the sexual discrimination?

We should all start calling each other fanboys and fangirls. Mix it up a little.

Instead of seeking to convince others, we can be open to changing our own minds, and seek out information that contradicts our own steadfast point of view. Maybe it’ll turn out that those who disagree with you actually have a solid grasp of the facts. There’s a slight possibility that, after all, you’re the one who’s wrong.
