Please Ban The Word 'Fanboy'

I have only been reading the Phones board for a month or so, and I am already bored with the peurile slanging matches that any thread on the iPhone descend into. I'm not personally offended by the word 'fanboy' but by the way it is used - to put down or deliberately provoke of the other poster. Otherwise interesting discussions are being hijacked or derailed and I am sure it must be as offputting to newbies to MSE as it is to me. I do not feel this word is in the spirit of MSE at all and I hope it can be !!!!!!!!!!!!
