That’s basically the attitude of someone who trolls said hobby forums lol
Translation: “No because I wanna feel superior for having that interest.”
I don’t necessarily want to feel superior, I think I just like when my communities are small and it’s a genuine rarity to find someone that likes, for example, the same subgenre of music. Finding someone that likes techno (for example) isn’t rare anymore, so it’s not a special event, y’know?
And you wanting to avoid having niche interests is your desire to feel, ah so normal?
Also, I liked it first btw 😆
This happened to me yesterday. There was a discussion thread on whether Attack on Titan is on par with great literature. I personally agreed with the sentiment and I explained in a comment, why I think so. I got downvoted because it was counter to generally accepted stance in the comment section. I was just trying to foster discussion. They didn’t even argue against my views, just downvoted me. But, I guess that is internet for you, people don’t want to have discussion. Most people are just seeking validation for their views. I am sure I am guilty of it too.
In before the WH40k comments.
Controversial (but correct) opinion here:
If you paint your Warhammer pieces more than a utilitarian single color, you’re not a real gamer. Making art is a homoerotic activity.
I don’t even know what you’re on about. I would understand the joke in this context if you had said ‘Making art is a heretical activity.’ because that plays into the grim dark lore of WH40K. Was saying homoerotic a typo?
