"No one should have to meet their hero.", and even less so: fellow fans.

Firefly. Only because I've never met anyone that wasn't someone I had to introduce to it. Let alone the comics, novels, board/card games, etc.

But for real, if I ever got anyone enough of a base around me becoming such fans as I; I would also happen to have enough of the old school Mage:tAs books to equate Technocracy with the Alliance and equate the Trads to Pirates.

I used to be active on /r/mma which was actually a decent sub with good moderation, but there was also /r/ufc which was just awful.

A place for teenagers to post dogshit takes and say shit like “I can’t wait to see X fighter get knocked out”. They treat it like WWE, wanting it to be a dramatic story and not the competitive sport that it is.

Aren't you afraid you enjoy it for the wrong reasons?

Oh ffs. For me it was the 40K fans. The grand majority is completely fine. But there are still these mouth breathing, bitter, gatekeeping neckbeards who loose their mind the moment something goes against…well they loose their mind all the time. No real reason to it. At least the mods tried to contain the worst offenders. Who would have thought a setting filled with hate and xenophobia attracts hate filled racists?
