Fanboy is a term used to describe an individual who is devoted to a single subject in a fanatical manner, often to the point where it is considered an obsession.

If you’re a gamer and you hang out on forums now and then, you’ve certainly come across one of these joyfull persons. Always so elegant and witty in response, never to shy to point out the fact you fail at life and have no business even thinking abiut their game.

Yes, we all love fanboys.

So here’s the great news. You to can be a fanboy!
All you have to do is remember a few pointers now and then, and if you’re lucky, you can take advantage of your new fanboy-ship and get discounts, freebies and everlasting fame.

Okay, lets start with the tutorial:

• Sometimes you will see people write about other games that supposedly are better than your current game nr. 1. Obviously these people have been bribed, brainwashed or are just plain stupid. use every means necessary to point out they are wrong, wrong, wrong. There can be only one best game evahh!
• Second, hardcore is the only way. Everything else is for wussies. If someone points out a feature that they think is questionable, they must be carebears!
  Be absolutely sure to guide them towards World of Warcraft and make some comments how your game is for real men only. Hardcore means being uber-leet, don’t let some wuss ruin your game.
• We’re on a roll here. Remember, the developers created this game for you and you alone! Hell, shy wouldn’t they? It’s not like they have to earn a living or something, right? All these people on this forum are nothing but a bunch of whiners. Be sure to let them know this at all times.
• Forth, abuse the quote function whenever you can. Why waste time with an adult discussion? Nonono, remember point one, everyone else is wrong but you. So when someone dares to post something, quote is and rewrite it to your liking. People will love you for this. Not only are you funny, you even took the time to make the internet a better place.
• Last, do not hesitate to use harsh language to prove your point. No need to try and present some level of dignity on the internet. It’s all carebears and whiners remember?

I’m sure if you think hard enough you can find more interesting pointers to make the internet a better place. But start with these five and you are good to go!
