boredom lack of hobbies carry around a lot of anger probably addiction issues, booze/weed/shit food/videogames/pop/etc getting a reaction from users to make up for lost time as a wallflower nerd all their life is a fulfilling feeling inherant lack of respect for other board members. Mostly just the vehement trolls
Like when someone brings up your post history or post count as a retort in an argument, you know instantly 2 things: 1) They have a fundamental lack of understanding of how gamefaqs counts, logs, archives, and deletes posts, and 2) they're losers that want you to feel as bad as they feel. See: First 3 points up above
Some gimmicks are lame, see: ReggieBush. Some used to be lame but are now not too bad. See: MrDuckbear.
Like I dunno
I feel like this does explain the reasons I get upset and flame/troll/etc
But what kind of specific thing makes you do this one gimmick on game facks dot com?
Like if you're doing it for 15-20 years, what's the thing that keeps you doing it? Like okay I'd say my addiction issues/boredom/lack of other hobbies are why I can't keep cool enough to stay in character
