Eh, I've never seen these creepy romance obsessions over on the Halo forums, just some other really weird **** there.

Not even close! The worst fanbase are sports fans. Until the day BioWare fans start rioting in the streets, I will consider them lightweights. :P


So.  Very.  True.

Until a whole college town needs to spend a week cleaning up after the release of a BioWare game, like I've personally witnessed after a football team wins the playoffs, it's not even close.

Not too far behind sports fans are music fans.  Watch video of audiences watching the Beatles, or Elvis.  Read about the psycho stalkers, or the servers dedicated to Justin Beiber tweeted, or just think about singers assaulted (and killed) by fans...

And we can always look at Twihards.

Worst fans? not even close. Most ungrateful/whiny/fanboyish/trolls/butthurt? They are pretty high on the list.

Hardly. When it comes to video games, there are games with far more...devoted fanbases, like Sonic fans for one. Bioware has just done such a good job with their creation that people can validly line up and defend their side (stuff like PvR). In addition, they've done a good job with characters that genuinely polarize people. That's why it seems like a bad fanbase: Bioware's doing it right.

It's pretty bad, but this forum is lovely compared to the Bethesda forum right now.

No, and 3 things:

1. For how long have you been on the internet?
2.Have you seen the Sonic Fanbase, the Twilight Fanbase, the TES fanbase(right now anyway), the Square Enix community, The Alredy Mentioned Sport fanbase(who literally start a RIOT over those things), etc? No? Didn't think so.

and 3.

lol @ asking this question to the Bioware fanbase.


although isn't the one of the best fanbases either(not even accidentally, sporadically, maybe on the weekends).

But i don't think i've ever seen a "Good" Fanbase.

This is specially funny considering i've yet to see anybody B¡tch about Skyrim outside of the Bethesda Forums.
This will will die very fast.

The HoN and LoL fanbases are probably on the top of my hate list.

Many scare me. But those are the ones who lurk in the Anders, Fenris and Tali threads. I try to stay away from those dark alleys, for my well being.

Others make me laugh. Such as those who defend every single crap decision BW makes.

Others are completely contrary to BW's ideal direction. It's fun to watch them rant.

No, not a bad fanbase at all. But let me reiterate, stay the **** away from the romance threads, especially the ones previously mentioned. Some of the things i've seen, oh maker.

I would say yes based purely on the idiotic butthurt people bang on about in these forums. However since I don't spend serious time at any other gaming forums I have nothing else to compare it too.

My Little Pony is not on the list because "very annoying" doesn't automatically equal bad.

In the long line of fandoms, BioWare is quite tame. Yes, we have Tali and Fenrismancers, but sexually frustrated pre-teens have existed forever.

Elder scrolls fanbase (for how much i love the games) are the whiniest sobs in the world
Halo follows close behind
Bioware seems one of the best imo

I actually find them rather amusing. Especially how every thread about gameplay or lore eventually turns into a Morrowhiners vs Bethesda fanboys 'debate'.

All fanbases are pretty much the same. Be it for games or a movie series, book series or whatever else. The Sonic fanbase can be just as unreasonable as the Halo one or the Bioware fans etc. LotR and Harry Potter books have a very strong fanbase that geek over things and get angry at any new release because it's not as good as the original or whatever.

People who are fans often feel very strongly about what they are fans of so more often than not they act unreasonably that's just what happens. Nothing the creator does will ever be good enough for the idealism they have for their favourite series so they are bound to lash out.

On the subject of Sonic fans i remember chatting to Roger Craig Smith just after he got the role as the new voice of Sonic and he said he was told when he got the job that the fanbase is very dedicated so he might get a few people who don't like him and he thought nothing of it having dealt with crtics before and like an hour after the announcement he checked his mailbox and it was full of mails like "YOU SUCK!!! I HATE YOU!!" it was pretty funny to imagine.

Its certainly one of the creepiest with people obsessing over what fictional characters are wearing and people caring more about pixelated humping than the actual game. But I dunno if its the worst.

A few bad apples tend to spoil the bunch. That's just how it is.

Virtually all my favourite online people are here, so I'd have to say no.

One of the worst? probably not.

One of the whiniest and easily offended? possibly.

Yes, see why in the poll, But I only go to three forums (Well minus a coupld of mod sites), here, one old Anime forum which averages on post every two days, so dead, 343 forums, and lastly some mod sites for my RTS games.

Out of those 343 is stable as the Bungie fan boys stay over there, the OA is dead, and the Mod sites, if you don't like the community you'll find yourself either being banned or the members being allow to curb stomp you.

As to the TES site, thats a no crap forum, I mean how the game has changed rapidly, and how many morrowind fan boys there are its bound to be a ****ty place.
