90% of people in BW are annoying KT fans. and 99.9% of the discussion/posts are from insufferable KT fans who think they have to say something about anything and bore everybody.
Consider this, would a Woongjin/Ace/MBC/T8 fan, despite hating KT or SKT participate aggressively in things like thiese? I doubt so. They are nice and pleasant people generally, and would rather keep out of things like this. On the other hand, KT fans will always find ways to annoy and flame in threads. The polls alone, as well as the replies, show this.
A way to improve this thread is to limit it to SKT vs KT. But even so, loudmouth KT fans will always find ways.
Just saying. Wow, what a true hater! KT anti-fans are the best.

i hate khan, the most annoying fans are SKT and KT, I cheer for SKT... I wish CJ did better but they are upsetting... at least SKT consistently can do well in playoffs.

I hate Fantasy and I don't have a good reason. I just hate his dumb gawky face.
Flash Fans tend to bandwagon, you saw the same thing with Jangbi for awhile. Love both the players, but I seriously doubt some of their "fans" sincerity. Why would they lie about being fans lol I'm referring to fair weather fans. Not the actuality of their fandom. I despise fair weather fans too. If your favorite team is playing against your 2nd favorite team or whatever, I don't understand the wishy-washy mentality of cheering for both. I get wishing both teams well, but you should always cheer the hardest for your most favorite team, especially when they crush others! + Show Spoiler +Although I make an exception for when Hydra faces off against SKT, so there is a bit of hypocrisy there. STILL, I do that only for Hydra, not for any other player/team!
I also hate how fans of teams are lumped together in stereotypical categories. You know, Bisu and Flash and Stork fanboys and the like. What happened to being a fan of the whole team. :/ Oh well, can't be helped since stereotypes will exist for pretty much all of eternity.

I think it's interesting data. Seems a large number of people are pretty ambivalent about the teams themselves but SKT1 fans seem to be the most annoying. Can't really explain it with KT vs SKT1 either, under favorite teams they're pretty close. If it was all about hating the most successful team I don't see how this is true as KT has been dominating both the team leagues and the inidividual leagues for the last 2 years or so. Sorry you think its a worthless thread.

I gave up after I saw the results of this poll.

SKT fans can definitely be annoying...probably because they overlap so hard with Bisu fans ;P

I just hope that if people are still going to choose to hate on players / teams that they can leave it in this thread so we don't have to see it in the LR.

This thread has been amusing, but I'd like to inject a little positiveness and love to break the long string of hate~
I find that when interacting with people, a strong, lasting positive impression completely overrides any negative ones. For example, I don't know what comes to mind when the rest of you think Stork fanboys are annoying, but to me, Stork fans are the most fun, friendly, and kind people out there. I think of people like Opshot, who's always been so patient and willing to help me with anything I ask of him, and of Nuke, who almost single-handedly taught me how to love and appreciate Starcraft, and of Sayle, a hero beyond description. If from now on, every Stork fanboy I ever meet is a jerk, it won't even matter. My opinion of them will still be the same :D
Competitive spirit is great and intense rivalries are important for sure. But it is a little disheartening that it seems like the vast majority of non-SKT fans genuinely think we're all Lightwip clones or something. They forget the fact that almost all of the current active translators and most of the SPL team that slaves away to bring you guys such sick articles every week are SKT fans. Like, I've had someone say to me, "Thanks for translating, you're awesome!" and then 10 minutes later turn to another thread and comment, "God, SKT fans are so obnoxious." Of course every fanbase has its bad apples and generalization happens to everyone, everywhere, but sometimes I feel like we tend to get the shortest end of this particular stick.
Anyway, I guess I'm just saying, I hope people try to value and remember the positive impressions and interactions more. Let's say MBC had the most annoying fan ever to step foot in TL. I'd still hope that when someone mentions "MBC fan," the majority of you would not automatically picture him in your head, but instead someone like Ryo, who dedicates himself tirelessly to this community ^^
So endeth my spiel; you may resume the hating!
(KT sux)

Thats not really a problem imo. While contributions are indeed awesome (translations/writeups/LR threads/etc) it doesnt give anyone a pass to act like an obnoxious fanboy/girl without having to hear about it from other people. Thats not the same as not appreciating the contribution one makes.
If it counts for anything, I like you. + Show Spoiler +

I dislike Khan because 100% of their fans are D+ protoss players that think pvt is a hard match up.
|
I dislike KT because 100% of their fans are D+ terran players who think tvp is a hard match up.
|
actually I think most kt fans are sc2 players
|
I hate STX because every player on STX looks the same.. And Flash fans are boring, "Oh he only lost because a fly landed on his nose when wanted to build a turret"... And I'm surprised that Ace is not higher on the "favorite team" poll!

Honestly i dislike KT fans because they think all their zergs are ultra "clutch" because they win with 3 hatch hydra and bo advantage in ZvZ.

On the forums, I think SKT fans are annoying for managing to make conversations that have nothing to do with SKT or Bisu about SKT or Bisu. My last favorite fan period, though, is CJ Woo guy.
