1. The true Hermit must never start threads to bait the consolite. He must never bash the console for sake of angering the consolite. He must never start a thread bashing a console on basis of hardware, control, or alleged lack of games.

2. The true Hermit must never rise to anger. He must bear the misconceptions of the consolites with patience. He must seek not to attack, but to enlighten the ignorant consolite. If the consolite is not educated, then the Hermit will continue the same, never stooping to attack the consolite's system of choice.

3. The true Hermit knows that it is the consolite, not the console, that is what needs fixing.

4. The Hermit cares not for the exclusives of the other consoles. Never should he covet the games of other systems. The true Hermit is content with the vast library that the PC has. He must never criticize the libraries of the other systems. As such, since the PC has so many exclusives, the Hermit must never be upset if a single exclusive is ported to the consoles, because he knows that the PC version will be superior in most cases.

5. It is of the utmost importance that the Hermit never directly state that the gaming console is inferior to the PC. He may express his belief, based on fact, that the PC is superior. He may state the PC's superiority, but never the console's inferiority.

There's my writing of the Hermit's previously unwritten code of honor. We'll see if it gets approved by the other Hermits. >_>
