The real key is knowing what the fuck you are talking about. Let's plays can do that. It's the people who only read fanworks that I can't stand personally.

basically, don't not know basic facts or have stupid theories/ask stupid questions, and nobody has to know!

ohplease

I'm heavy into the Mass Effect fandom and I've seen plenty who've played through who held stupid theories and asked stupid questions.

Playing the game isn't bullet-proof against being a dumbass.

And for as long as I've been in fandom, I've seen people who watch a show and still managed to be so OOC for characters it's painful. So who's going to really know if someone's played the fucking game or not?

You just like living in your ego-wanking world that YOU PLAYED THE GAME WOOOO!

get over it.

[insanenoodlyguy]

Played the game, read the story, listened to the fucking band's actual music...

Why stop with just the games?

Is it really so elitist to expect that people who are fans of something would follow the source material?

I'll judge the other dumb assess too. Just for different reasons!

But why should they have to, just to be able to say that they like some aspect of a thing, or participate in a fandom?
This makes absolutely no sense, to me.
Why is there so much "You must have followed [x] to enter here." shit in fandom? What does it accomplish?
Just correct people when they're wrong, and leave it at that.

[insanenoodlyguy]

To like something? No. But to talk about it within it's fandom? Yes. It's not so much to ask, IMO, that people wanting to talk about something know what they are talking about.

Edit: unless they are actually there to ask about it. That's different.

I get irrationally angry when someone comes trotting into fandom and it quickly becomes apparent all they know about it is what they've read through fic and the wikipedia.

I'm old school anime fan and when I saw this happening in Gundam Wing I was just GAH! It was clear pretty quickly they based their knowledge of the series from fanon in fanfic.

Drove me NUTS. They were impossible to have any kind of meaningful discussion with about the show.
