This thread is a tinderbox lying next to a haystack.
Only if fanboys come on this thread and get offended that they are being called a fanboy which will probably be a good thing in the long run.

Even though I play it quite often, I have always had a hard time with Halo Fanboys. Nothing against the game, but I don't believe any game is worth the devotion that some of these guys portray.

PC fanboys, their attitude tends to be detrimental overall.
Next up would be console fanboys who refuse to play anything but their one console of choice or even entertain the thought that anything else might be good.
Third are fanboys of old games from previous generations who don't accept that the franchise is dead/moved on.
Ah, the "everybody's an asshole" tactic. A good move and easy to get away with, although you ruined it when you ranked them.
I think this guy nominated himself

No one's mentioned Sonic fanboys yet?! INCONCEIVABLE!
Insulting Sonic Fanboys at this point is kinda like throwing rocks at a crippled dog.
QFT.

How could anyone be a fanboy of that once-great, now-shit blue hedgehog?

He hasn't had a good game in years. It's like watching a crackwhore do her business. She keeps selling herself out for more crack money.

Halo fanboys, and Call of Duty fanboys.

both games are fun, don't get me wrong, and are good for killing 6-9 hours each, but both certainly aren't "TEH BEST GAEM 3VAR!!"

I actually didn't realize I was calling 'everyone' an asshole. That's just how much they annoy me and how I'd rank them on a scale of worst or not. Other gaming related fanboys are lower on the scale.
To clarify, the elitism of the PC fanboys is mostly what nets them the first point. They do nothing but *****, whine and insult the console players but they show no interest in educating them to show them the benefits of the "better" platform in their eyes, they don't want more people to like PC gaming. They just want to be the only ones being gamers. If it was up to the majority then anyone who's ever touched a console wouldn't play games at all and only PC gamers would play games ever because they're apparently smarter for liking a different style of play.

Console fanboys are second for being annoying and closed minded. They're trolls mostly, creating topics on forums dedicated to annoying other people and creating internet fights over a choice of what fancy box they play with. They are similar to PC gamers in some ways but differ in that rather then wanting everyone else to stop playing games, they'd force everyone to play their console of choice. They tend to put their fingers in their ears and scream nonsense when faced with any negative fact of their console, even if it's something as simple as "it looks silly." They manage to score lower simply because though annoying they don't usually go out of their way to antagonize, insult or be a massive douche to people.

Nostalgia fanboys are just annoying, they cause no harm other then annoyance and rank third simply because of the sheer amount of annoyance. How many times have you heard someone screeching about FFVI or FFVII being THE BEST and how the series should go back to it? They're obnoxious and blinded by nostalgia so thick nothing will penetrate it.

My reasons behind this list is mostly generalization based on the people I've met, but I'm fine with that.
Wasn't actually expecting, or asking for, an explanation there. Especially considering you pretty much mentioned entirely what I assumed you were trying to get across from your first post.

Also, yeah, you're pretty much mentioned everyone there. PC gamers, console gamers, and nostalgia gamers make up every single gamer on earth. Can't get much more general than that.

Except that crack whore used to be your best friend who no matter how you tried, ended up in a downward spiral.
Wow, you took my analogy and went one better.

I am in awe of you. That is a very, very good addition to my analogy.

Super Smash Brothers fanboys. *SHUDDER*
TiersR4queers lol? I like SSB, but you are right. The fanboys and tourney[folk] are loathsome.

I personally want to murder shooter fanboys (collectively known as Brogamers)
What is this TiersR4queers that you speak of?

Not necessarily in gaming, but the absolute worse are Star Wars vs. Star Trek fanboys. :) I'm an old school Trekkie, but I appreciate both. Those who argue the two? ugh.

And no matter how hard you try to help her, she just keeps taking your money, insisting that this $100 is going to go towards getting herself into that clinic down the street. But deep down you both know you're just lying to yourselves.

moderately successful campaign to make jackasses quit playing as marth and falco in Melee tournaments. Yes I've played tournaments. No, that does not make me a tourneyfag. At any rate, once upon a time, this guy noticed that tourneyfags had begun ranking the Melee characters into tiers. Falco and Marth were top-tier, and EVERYONE began using them, because cowards love to counter and run away. So annoyed was this one mysterious fanboy that he began an internet campaign called TiersR4Queers. Basically, play anyone BUT marth and falco. ANd it worked! was cool. And a great day for all ganon players. HELP YOURSELF TO ANYTHING IN THE FRIDGE!

All fanboys and fangirls. By that, I mean people that bash other games simple because its not the game they're obsessed with.

I'm alright with people being fans of a game. I am a fan of a number of games, but I admit that it has faults. I enjoyed the Halo series, but I'm not going to be some douchebag that thinks it's perfect. It had many flaws.
Very good definitions. I feel the same way. I love Modern Warfare, but I know there are problems with it.

PS3 fanboys, if only because they actually get pissed off when a series becomes cross platform, rather than exclusive. Devil May Cry, Final Fantasy, etc.. all caused the PS3 community to ***** when announced as cross platform. Nintendo, 360, and PC fanboys all generally could care less, but PS3 fanboys don't shut up.

Still, all fanboys/girls are terrible.

Oh, the worse fanboys in gaming. Well, that would be the fanboys in that part of the Internet over there. [Gestures vaguely.]

Blargh, what a silly question, like any one person has the kind of omniscience required to render such a judgment.

Suffice to say, self-delusion is a all-pervading trait of humankind, and I'll not fool myself into thinking it's isolated in any one body of work.

Call of Duty fanboys. It's not a bad series, but it's not the second coming either. Next up would be the Fallout 1 + 2 fanboys, who refuse to accept Fallout 3 as a proper part of the series. Anyhow, that's about it.

TWILIGHT kids. Seriously. Nothing worse than a bunch of pre-teen kids drooling over a brooding vamp kid and the other fantasy-fanfic-gone-wrong cast of characters.

Well, that's a bit less mainstream, so it'd be more secluded. It's more of an elitist thing, anyways.
Besides, I like them all! (The fallouts, not COD fanboys)
