I was picked on a little bit as a kid? but not seriously, serially bullied. Probably what I experienced is similar to what most kids do (outside of the in-crowd at least).
And I'm not a loner. Quite the contrary, I'm actually very much an extrovert.
I think the majority by far of people active in fandom are introverts, but not all of us! Nor do all have the same childhood experiences. This is not to de-legitimize the experience of those in fandom who have been bullied, or judge those who choose to spend good deal of time by themselves. And I do think the proportions of people with those experiences are much higher here than in the population at large.
But you are kinda making a blanket assumption there, OP, which is generally not a good idea. The only things all people in online fandom have in common is that they're fans and have (at least some) access to the Internet.

Seriously, though, I think it's just a common fallacy in human thinking.
