Im guilty of this tactic as are others, but how much better when you think about it are you compared to them? What the hell am I saying? lol hold that thought.... ok ok I remembered what it was...Simple ? here....What do we gain from calling others the following...Fanbois, Hater, Trolls etc etc..

Calling other people these various names is what kids do in primary and middle school and sometimes even in high school. Yes yes I know there are kids that play online games too. Does that mean we as adults should join in on that immature behavior? Im guilty of this yes. When I step back and think about it I am no better than them.

Whatever happened to good ole debating...the sad thing about it is mostly its the adults doing this..Im just curious thats all...

This may be acceptable to alot of people, but what does name calling eventually lead to in the real world? The answer is, it usually leads to kids plotting to bring guns to school and shooting up innocent good people.. Could that happen here? Sure it could, there are many ways of obtaining information on who you are and where you live... Think about it!!

when they start a thread with false/out dated facts they are called a troll/fanboi etc. if they woudl start a thread in a non derogtory manner it would get taken as such. There have been discussion to that manner in these forums before.

Now also it is human nature to lash out and defend something you like.

I can understand what you are saying, but is there really a need to name call. Why not just gather your facts to proove them wrong.

i must be reading the wrong threds.. or reading the right ones.. however you want to see it.. lol cuz i dont see people calling others names very often at all. generaly when i see people talk in a "hater thred" its usualy people talking about thier experiances in the game. what was wrong with it an stuff. talking about lagit probs with a game isnt being a hater imo, just speaking truth an there is no reason someone cant voice his or her opinion about a game.. good or bad. if people dont speak up.. nothing will change for the better.. thats how i see it.

if you dont want to read that stuff then just dont. you can usualy tell what its going to be about. if you see a thred called "cancelled AoC sub" then you can probably be sure that person is going to say he/she stoped playing and why. dont like it dont read it. simple as that.

Its WAR!!!

If you say something and I disagree with you then I will DESTROY you......for you are my enemy! I will take up a verbal equivalent of my trusty battleaxe and engage you in melee combat! One of us will fall to the ground, defeated and broken while the other will stand victorious and blood stained......and maybe even holding a severed head aloft. We will also call each other names in an attempt to enrage our opponent so that they may execute a hasty and badly planned verbal assault, allowing the other to get a quick blow past his guard.

If a combatant is too soft to be able to handle the impact of some deadly name calling then they should not enter the verbal battlefield. They deserve to be crushed underfoot!

Moderation should be done in moderation.

Communists.

Jesus, another bleeding heart who thinks that holding hands and smiling will solve everything.  People will find a reason to hate each other, supposed WAR threads won't change that. 

Damn peace fanboi.....joking.

$$$OE$$$
"We got your game"
(and we screwed it)

Agree with OP.

 

But it's difficult in this forum, anything besides "WAR is going to rock!" or the numerous variations, is called trolling.
