counterproductive activity as a fan. I've never been a big fan of booing to begin with. That being said, I have no issue complaining about a player on a message board or someplace where a player will not see it unless they are searching for it.. (My rationale is that, if a player is visiting TSL or searching on X, well that's on them.) But if you want your team to win a game, booing them serves no positive purpose.
