The Worst/Most Annoying Things About the TMNT Fanbase

What do you guys think? What aspects of our fandom rub you the wrong way?

For me it's 2 fold:
1. The "fans" who were only really on board the franchise as kids and have "moved on" but feel the need to come behind the new stuff Nick is doing and saying, "This isn't the Turtles. CG sucks! This is gay!" So mainly anyone who posts comments on Youtube saying they're a "Huge TMNT Fan"...

and the second is kinda like it...

2. Fans of one part of the franchise at the detriment of all others. I can understand not liking a particular aspect of the franchise, but to speak nothing but bile about how boring all the Mirage books are, or how un-grim/dark all other iterations are when compared to Mirage (and Image). We get it, the Mirage books aren't your preference, no need to bludgeon us to death with it.
