I don't know that your average random person joins a forum solely to s#itpost. That takes a special kind of fanbro.
And since, as you mentioned, this is a pen fandom scenario then the vocal minority of people who do this sort of thing from every fandom suddenly become the majority of people on that website.

Maybe I missed a thread but could you explain to me what this Nice Guy routine is actually about?
