Ok, so after getting trolled and harrassed by TGWTG fans on Doug Walker's fanpage on Facebook after I expressed my disgust with... {Spoiler}Doug's cat killing joke in his latest review It got me thinking what are the worst fanbases on the net? For me it has to be the TGWTG fans after the treatment I just got from them. |

Call it hypocritical, but the majority of bronies at this point are becoming snivelling brats when they don't get their way with anything.

I also wonder if there is a troll section in the Brony fandom. People who pose as Bronies to piss people off. I know that you guys love the show and more power to you but a small minority take it too far and I can only think it's on purpose.

Yes, there is a vast majority of trolls in the fanbase.

comic fans. so many of them have a coniption whenever something messes with the status quo and actually has the gall to advance the characters (see Grant Morrison's entire run on X-men). even worse, some of these mouthbreathers are given prominent jobs at comic companies and blow up continuity just so things can stay in some kind of bubble (see: Barry Allen's needless return, One More Day). it's really childish, and creates the image of an industry run by a bunch of guys who look/act like comic book guy throwing tantrums when something didn't go their way.

Considering where the fandom basically started, it's not far-fetched to think that at all. |

The ones that try to convert others by shoving the show down their throats piss me off.
I love the show but I accept it's not for everyone, seriously these people need to stop giving the rest of us a bad name ¬.¬

3 words, Pewdie-f***ing-pie.
Anyone says anything negative about this screaming manchild, he'll comment on it, and of course, it acts like a beacon for his "Bro army" to reign abuse, swearing and racism on 'em!

When I realised real Bronies weren't like that I got off the anti Bronie bandwagon. I'm 31 and still get all giddy when Babar comes on so I really can't judge. XD 3 words, Pewdie-f***ing-pie. Anyone says anything negative about this screaming manchild, he'll comment on it, and of course, it acts like a beacon for his "Bro army" to reign abuse, swearing and racism on 'em! That's pretty much what I got from the TGWTG fans tonight. It's to the point I had to report them to Facebook. Seriously crazy people. |

I kinda think CM Punk diehards are absolutely the worst. They're the worst as far as it comes to making excuses for deplorable behavior and letting things slide simply because "it's CM Punk and that's just the way he is!"

Any fanbase that can't take a joke. If you get all bent out of shape when someone makes a joke about your thing you need to relax.

There's a lot of bad fanbases out there.
You've got the "weeaboos" who believe everything from Japan is superior to everything else, regardless of quality and believes that people who like dubs are "mouthbreathing morons with no taste".
You've got the overzeleous Sonic "fans" who crap on everything Sonic does no matter what.
You've got "Bronies" who try to force the show down peoples' throats or get overly defensive over the smallest criticism.
You've got the Nintendo fanboys who praise Nintendo and assume that you're some "CODtard" or "brodude" fratboy shooter fan if you don't praise Nintendo's 1st party games and believes that Nintendo invented every single game innovation.
You have Family Guy fans who think Family Guy invented every joke ever.
The CM Punk fans who wants to give CM Punk a free pass because he's CM Punk(Example: When he hit that fan on Raw that one night)
And many more. I can't find myself to single out just one.

I'll go ahead and say juggalos.
We pride ourselves on being all about "family" and are quick to point out that we're not all criminals and whatnot. But then I can't go to an ICP concert or the gathering without seeing fans stealing from each other and fighting. I went to a Twiztid show a few yeara back and saw 3 fights (2 of which were male vs female) AND had a lot of stuff stolen from my car.

Although I love most of them for their enthusiasm and for being good hearted rivals (I'm a vikings fan)... there is a select group of Packer Fans that need to be reminded that taunting small children and throwing beer at them for daring to wear Purple into Lambaeu isn't cool.
But honestly, that's probably every sports team. There's that 5% that just can't refrain from burning things and being drunken assholes.
so I won't name the Pack or any sports team. Instead, I'll say the diehard Console Fanboys that turn friendly internet conversations about video gaming into bile filled flamefests of filth over who owns the better console.
It's completely mind blowing how stupid and out of control these people get.

I can second this, love ICP Fans and am one myself but hate "Juggalos" because I have never seen an example of them not going over the top and showing how bad they are as a fandom. |
