    I have come accross quite a few web forums where flame wars are the standard "baptism of fire" for a new guy, mine is bigger then yours is a prerequisite end statement for any post, or even the most original "!!!???!?!"...fantastic stuff altogether.
    :)

    ..but i have found a very special forum:

    TeamXbox was once a great website and console forum (which is why i registered) but these days it produces such gems as:
    From:General Xbox Discussion

    Halo only used 15% of Xbox power !?!?!?!?!?!?!?!
    oh my god!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! oh my god!!!!!!!!!!!! no way in the world can Halo only use Xbox's full power only

    that means that Xbox will have better abd bigger games coming in the future!!!! WoW!!! Halo is a great game and it only uses 15% ! LMAO PS2........ I cant belive I bought a PS2.... crapy thing - even gay cube is better ... LMAO

    this is great news!



    I wish this was an extreme example, but on TeamXbox, this is simply a standard post.


    So does anyone else have any amazing gems they would like to share?

    One of the funniest things I've ever read was the comment thread on TeamXbox after one of our guys on Eurogamer.net wrote an editorial summing up the whole Xbox Live affair. He criticised a load of things about the proposed service - all of them pretty much fairly, and he did go to lengths to point out that Sony has yet to reveal how it plans to overcome these same difficulties.

    Some guy at TeamXbox posted up the entire story to a forum thread, which rapidly turned into a massive multi-page monster - the sheer depth of ignorance and rabid fanboyism on display was utterly staggering. And I'm sorry, but Xbox fanboys ARE the worst of the lot on the Internet - probably because they're mostly american teenagers and mostly on the defensive.

    Extracts of the enlightened.
    First of all, thats Eurogamer. Just another news site getting anonymous tips from a secretary of the companies

    Second, Microsoft <edit> specialize in COMPUTERS. I think they know what they are doing (debatable).


    Eurogamer is a site of Nintendo fanboys....

    ..and the final piece comes from: xboxisphat
    It's this kind of arrogant troll bullsh*t which just simply needs to be handled, legally. This kind of ignorant trash should not even be allowed to be written, and these people doing it deserve to be banned from doing so. Does the world care how you would have done it in the first place sherlock?? NO. It's only a great way to raise more controversy and blind a couple of foolish haters to sway your way- why the hell don't you take edgegamers lead and realize that ANYTHING YOU SAY does not matter in the longrun anyway, so jumping aboard xbox is the way to go??

    I don't think I really need to explain this anymore, these articles are full of bullsh*t, and are so onesided, the "press mongers" who keep feeding them should be getting misdemeanors slapped on their asses every time they turn around. There is no probable cause for allowing slander like this in the industry, it's the EXACT same thing as racial protagonists, and people against white supremacy etc. And with sites like www.xbxo.com popping up because of these enraged fanboys, I would not be surprised at all IF laws do get passed, because this kind of idiocy is not only not exscuseable, it's downright insidious.

    If you wish to experience more..clicky here.

    On Usenet, webtv users were (and probably still are) seen as the lowest form of life (even lower than AOL'ers). Then Microsoft bought out Webtv. History repeating itself?
