Fanboy Battle Royal!

I saw this crazy thing on some site where this guy makes a replica of an MA5C Assault Rifle (Assult Rifle from Halo). If I had a soul, I' d sell it for one of these.

I think it' d be interesting if we used this thread to display acts of extreme fanboyism. Or not even neccessarily the work of a fanboy but just anything extreme a fan has done. Something none of use would do. It could be for a game,franchise or a platform, anything related to videogames. It doesn' t matter if it' s a fabrication, a video or body mutilation. Any act or display that shows a devotion to one videogame brand.

Teh fanboyzerz assemblezerzzzzzz. We will talk about our teh greatnesszzerzz, Flamezorz anyone who doesnt agreezerz, and call them teh fanboy nubzerzzzzz

Well, this topic is perfect for what I am about to show you. I imagine a few of you have already seen this, as its at least 6 years old, probably more like 8.

It' s a bunch of guys dressed up as their EQ characters and NPC' s from the game.

There is an extend version of the above clip, but I cannot find it.

I' m not sure if these guys are EQ nerds, or just D & D nerds. But a few of the costumes and the guy who dresses up like an elf druid lead me to believe its supposed to be EQ

I saw this, way back when I was 15 or so, playing EQ not long after it came out. Back then I made a pvp Shadowknight and used to go hunting for people in my level range. In it, unlike WoW, you could text opposing factions. I don' t think you can realise how serious people take MMO' s until you hear the things they say to you after you kill them in a game that was as hard as it was. I had people threaten bodily harm, cry, plead, beg, create such vulgar insults that I still have not heard the like today, and even pay huge sums of in game money to be left alone. Now, I must add that I was the biggest pvper out there, and had the highest number of pvp kills even 2 years after I had quit, so my encounters were most likely very out of the ordinary. I figured I would share this story, as it somewhat relates to how crazy the nerds in the video are.

That...is a wonderful story Dagashi. Thank you. I really enjoyed that.

lol, I just realised how that post makes it look like I' m trying to boast about my pvp prowess. I guess I should have worded it differently. I should add that my friend also used my character to pvp with a couple days a week. Regardless, it still sticks with me today how angry grown men and women can get over an MMO.
