Fandoms you dislike, of things you like.

[game-lover]

I honestly don't have anything to add. It's shocking. But not even the crack shippers that I don't really approve of or understand really get to me.

So instead, I'm just going to bookmark this thread so I can come back to it later and read everything I just skipped over.

MLP:FiM.

Honestly, I enjoy the show but the majority of bronies just get on my tits and make me feel guilty for liking it. They're either man-children, actual children, or insist on bringing it up at every possible moment.

I was playing TF2 just earlier today, there were 2 people with avatars of Octavia and Vinyl Scratch, their steam names were "Octavia" and "Vinyl Scratch", and to top it off, appended to their steam names were "FiM" and "Friendship is Magic". Their names where "Vinyl Scratch (FiM)" and "Octavia (Friendship is Magic)".

Wow, how very subtle. Really... isn't an avatar enough? Are you that desperate to be identified as a brony even to people that know nothing of FiM? It's startling how common that is, and irritating to boot.

Sonic fans too. I really like the Sonic games but there's a reason the fandom is infamous around the internet *shudders*

In fact here's a fun game; go onto Google images and type in '[your first name] the hedgehog' and just marvel at the pieces of art before you >_>

why, why did I do that? Oh man.

Spoiler: Oh God, this is bad

and that was the first thing that popped up! the first thing

Spoiler: Meh not horrible

OT: The TF2 community members who spend more time complaining about the price of buds and F2P'ers than playing the actual game

 

[everfreeDragon]

I've come to accept all fandoms have loud people who make them look terrible. So, all of them!

Spoiler: Also the ____ the Hedgehog game

Not bad, I don't really like it but not as bad as most of what I see here.

Avengers Fandom

Go on Tumblr and search for "The Avengers" you'll see what I mean.

Now don't get me wrong, I'm a huge Marvel fan, And the Avengers film was amazing, so good I saw it twice in the same night, but bloody hell, some of the members of it's fandoms are terrible, they never shut up about how pretty Loki is, and how he's adorable, and how he's actually a pretty nice guy, I do not kid when I saw a post on tumblr saying

"Just saw Avengers: LOKI LOKI LOKI LOKI LOKI LOKI LOKI (Times about twelve)"

Bah I hate them, worst thing is that if you're a fan of the avengers, you get lumped in with these screeching morons, does my head in!

 

[Evil Cabbage]

Final Fantasy... in particular, the fanbase on sites like Youtube and IGN. It's not that I have anything against people discussing the merits of one entry over another like civilised human beings - it's just that people tend to get so angry over the opinions of others that it's simultaneously hilarious and headache inducing.

At one point, I even took screen caps of some, well colourful, Youtube comments, however I'm not sure if their contents would get me a warning.

 

[DJ_DEnM]

The certain part of Brony Fandom that hates anybody who doesn't like the show. Fucking extremists, the reason why people don't like us.

 

[Khazoth]

Mass Effect
Yahtzee Croshaw
Portal
Team Fortress 2


I don't play League of Legends, but I think its a cool game. Guess why I don't play it?

 

[Lilani]

Whovians...y u hate River Song?!?!? :<

Also, a lot of people on TF2 are elitists. They think they're better than F2P players, they think they're better than little kids, they think they're better than furries...just a bunch of people out looking to wave their e-dick around.

 

[NoNameMcgee]

Gamers.

 

[solemnwar]

Atheism/atheists.

It's ironic how people who are supposed to advocate free thinking can be so zealous and righteous. Basicly they're turning atheism into a religion, saying that anyone who believes in a god must be completely moronic.

...

*facedesk* *facedesk* *facedesk* *fcaedsek* *fmaeonag* *snfvba*

"fmaeonag" totally looks like a scandinavian equivelent of "facedesk".
[sub]Just thought it was interesting.
[sub]I'll leave you alone now.[/sub][/sub]

 

[penguindude42]

The people who are hating on "weeaboos", have any of you actually been to Japan? It's pretty sweet.

Have you ever seen a weeaboo? <url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Y2xGKZ9HSw>They look something like this.

OT: Sonic fantards, whether it's the literal 'tards, the manchildren, or the furverts.
But then there's the actual fans, the people such as myself.

Those, and the zombie trolls. News flash: MSPA sucks ass!

 

[Vault101]

you'll get it with any fadom

but fucking otaku/weaboos....I loathe soo much

 

[Vault101]

The people who are hating on "weeaboos", have any of you actually been to Japan? It's pretty sweet.
If anything it would be great to tap into some of that love people show their favourite series.

theres a difference between liking/apreciating japanease culture (I think alot of their stuff is really cool)

to being like THIS:

 

[soren7550]

Mass Effect fans. Not all of them mind you, just the ones that are *way* too into the romances - the ones in-game and the ones they make up.

(so says the person who calls herself Soren Alenko)

 

[Khazoth]

Anime fans.

I like anime, I really do, but sometimes the super fans just take it waaay to far!

What would make you say something like that? Anime fans are rational, well thinking...




AHHHH! OH MY GOD WHAT THE FLYING SCROTUM OF CTHULHU IS THAT!


(Disclaimer: I don't hate anime fans, no offense intended)

 

[bullet_sandw1ch]

Everything these days. Fans seem to be whiny snots everywhere you go. Especially fans of long established series that idealize the old through rose coloured glasses of their nostalgia and whine about how the new is not the same.

*cough* final fantasy *cough*

OT: basically MLP. i dont care if you like this show, i dont give a crap about rainbow sparkles, or turd feathers, or whatever these stupid magic ponies are called! they are seriously the most intrusive, obnoxious fans ive ever come into contact with.
