Poll: My arguement with an Army guy. Over ODST.

[MrSnugglesworth]

(This argument is over Xbox Live and with some guy I don't know)
So I was talking with my friends about how they liked ODST (Stayed up all night/skipped school just to play it) and they were like "Its awesome" and such. So then I asked the question "How's the story?" and they said "Great!".


But the real "Argument" started when I said
"I saw a review of it online and all it said was that the story just holds the game together."

So then the army dude gets PISSED! Like seriously angry. He yells

"So what, you gonna believe some stupid fucking gaming site? This story is fucking GREAT!"

I just chip in

"I dunno, Bungie isn't known for great stories. Look at almost any other gaming company for that"

So he gets even angrier (Please note, I have no idea he's in the army at this point)

"FUCK YOU! You don't know SHIT about gaming and is probably a twelve year old who's balls haven't dropped!"

So naturally I went for his maturity.

"Wow, cussing and jokes about my age, great, but I'm fifteen and probably more mature then your stupid fanboy ass."

"Ahahaha! Just talk to my commanding officer *****! Thats right. THE FUCKING ARMY!"

"Dude, your commanding officer would be fucking ASHAMED of you for boasting about being in the army in an argument about videogames."

So I ask of you after this long post, was I right to say this?

Was this in person or over live?

And arguing with fanboys is useless.

Just because he's in the army doesn't make him any less of a douchebag. But that doesn't give you the right to fall to his level and argue with a fanboy like that. Honestly he was probably in the wrong here but you shouldn't have stooped to his level.

Over Live.

Go Mrsnugglesworth! You can do it!

.... You argued about Halo's story sucking with a Halo fanboy? Why not convince someone that slamming their head against the wall is useless by slamming your head against a brick wall until you go unconcious?

 

[Radeonx]

Being in the army doesn't mean anything. He isn't better than anyone else, so, you can say whatever you want to him.

 

[Artemis923]

Chances are the guy isn't even in the Army.

 

[Ibanez887]

Christ, that guy needs anger counseling, and an intervention

I really wasn't talking to him much about the story, but how all he see's is Halo being the best. Now I know its almost always useless, but I feel I left a significant mark on his mind.

A real soldier would never bring the army into a fight that didn't concern the army. Not saying that he isn't enlisted, just that he isn't a true soldier.

Then you have lost. Because, to think the person is actually in the army, and to think you can make a Fanboy use those grey meats in his head for something other then Clouds stats at level 67 when wielding the cloudbuster with a level 4 all materia and a level 4 heal materia is just silly.

What are you asking here? He is an idiot, just because he is in the army doesn't mean he isn't a fool, you should have verbally abused him and defeated him with logic and maturity!

Honestly? You should have just dropped it s soon as he got irrationally angry.
Just drop it!

It's some guy over LIVE who you'll never meet, you gain nothing from the argument (Even if you 'win'), and you end up looking like just as big a douche as him (Even with eloquent responses). Some people are just looking for a fight, verbal or otherwise, and it's always just a better idea to ignore them and drop the subject. Especially over something so trivial as a video game.

Irony.. read my comment below yours... XD

I'm pretty sure he is, because he got super pissed after I said that, said something inelligible and turned his Xbox off (Other friends in party friended him)

 

[Quadtrix]

I hope he ends up as a P.O.W.

 

[Random Argument Man]

Wanking the fact that you're part of the army is does not make an argument valid. FOR ANY SUBJECT.


Your friend should make another trip to bootcamp. Maybe he'll learn what does army-fans are rambling me about all the time...(Discipline mostly).

Because he got mad over a game debate?
