Basicly you got the definition right : D though trolls are everywhere not just here they get mistaken for fanboys as well.

Trolls are annoying, but since *******I spend most of my time actually gaming********* (and other activities), I just don't bother reply to obvious trolls.

Yep. Go enjoy your games, troll friends. I can understand conversation, even debate, but who honestly thinks that they'll convert someone to their gaming philosophy with trash talking and sht stirring? It just doesn't fly.

I actually think it's impossible to "convert" someone to your gaming philosophy. They either like the games or they don't. It's like trying to convince someone to eat anchovie pizza with words... They obviously don't like that type of pizza, they'd rather just bash your anchovies and promote their pepperoni.

I really don't see anything wrong with having a bias, because whatever kind of game I like is my business, and shouldn't affect anybody else, but there is a difference between being a fanboy and going out of your way to cause problems.

I didnt say they were fanboys, I said they get mistaken for fanboys.

I was agreeing with you, and in fact expanded on your point, Leo.

This topic is pointless...because everybody is sick of trolls...it's a given...

LEFT4DEAD411.COM
Bet with disolitude: Left4Dead will have a higher Metacritic rating than Project Origin, 3 months after the second game's release. (hasn't been 3 months but it looks like I won :-p )
