It's important to note that the -Insert Popular Game Here- Forum does not represent the community as a whole, merely a ton of newcomers that want to make page-long rants about every minor problem they've had with the game. Sure, Bungie refers to these unwashed masses as "The Community" to make its underground army look bigger and strike fear in the hearts of political leaders the world over, but they aren't so much community members as they are angry teens smashing random words into their keyboards because their video game avatar got shot in the face.
It's not only important but essential to realize that none of you are in the right here. Terms like "Haters" and "Fanboys" get thrown around, but neither viewpoint is correct. The answer to the problem is to post your opinions calmly, and defend them logically. Flaming others - even if they are totally asking for it - only adds to the problem. Moreover, bringing up the fact that there's a "War" will only draw attention to it, not stop it. Accept others' opinions, rise above the problem and petty biases. Lead by example, and pray that the masses will one day join you.
~If that sounds like too much work, just avoid the Reach Forum. It's a dump.
