There are worse:
- true metal must have NO INNOVATION. If it doesn't sound like the '80s metal, it's gay and commercial.
- true metal can't sound modern. If it sounds modern, it's gay and commercial.
- true metal can't have songs above 4 minutes. If it does, it's gay, commercial, or Opeth.
- true metal can't have concept albums. If it's a concept album, it's pretentious. Pretentious things are gay and commercial.
- true metal must never have emo lyrics - that is, not about death, Vikings, death, battles, death, Satan, or death. Emo lyrics are gay and commercial.
- true metal can't have musicians capable of playing in something else than 4/4 and of above-average technicality. If it does, it's wankery, which is, quite obviously, gay and commercial. If it's Meshuggah or Dream Theater, BUUUUURRRRRRRRRNNNNNNNN.
- true metal can NEVER SOUND ANYTHING CLOSE TO NU-METAL. If it's anything nu-metal, it's... yeah, you guessed it. (In case you don't know, according to one kvltist on Metal Archives, OSI "Blood" is nu-metal)
- true metal must be always metal from start to finish. If it has any calmer parts, it's... is it that predictable?
- true metal is only true if it doesn't progress. If a band's 20th album sounds just like the first one, they're really fvcking methul!!!!11

That'll do for starters. :D

Yes, but even worse: "If you don't like death and black metal, you haven't 'matured' as a fan of metal".

All this comment shows is that the speaker is horrendously condescending, uptight and insecure about so greatly liking a genre that most people hate on, and which is, pretty much whatever way you look at it, wide open to ridicule.

But no, if you don't like death and black metal, you're an immature, inferior breed of metal fan.

- true metal can NEVER SOUND ANYTHING CLOSE TO NU-METAL. If it's anything nu-metal, it's... yeah, you guessed it. (In case you don't know, according to one kvltist on Metal Archives, OSI "Blood" is nu-metal)
I hate this as well. Not that I'm a big lover of nu-metal, but I think there are things the sub-genre did that metal overall could have benefited from, but since it's been put in a box and labelled shit by almost the entire metal fanbase, that's probably not gonna happen.

Most annoying,  Fans that force what they like on others who don't like it. :P

My school did a production of that with a live band.
I played guitar.
It was awesome

Yeah, this exactly. There are some things that are labeled as "nu-metal" (from what I've noticed, tuning is the most common reason for nu-metal accusations), which can sound really great if combined with the rest properly, but the retarded pseudo-purists can't understand it. There are plenty of bands who have a seriously non-traditional metal sound (like Katatonia, to which I've been addicted for over a month), and it sounds great if done right.

This. Here's more:
- If someone likes a nü-metal band or mainstream Hard Rock/Metal band you don't like, e.g. Avenged Sevenfold or Slipknot, you must not try to convince him politely that there are better bands and teach him what you know. Instead, you must be a dick with him and humiliate him, because your underground metal knowledge can't be shared with anyone. Why? Because if you share it, it becomes mainstream. And commercial. And gay.

- Prog sucks because it only consists of whiny gay men who sound like girls and songs that last forever and shred guitarists who only like to play musical wankery. That's sooo non-methul!

Tie between Tool fans and ICP fans, but to be honest, at least the Tool fans like a good band.

Just amazing.  DT should count their lucky stars that some of their fans are at this level of unconditional cult worship.

Tool, they are so damn annoying. They couldn't stop talking about how Maynard is the Jesus of music.

Also older DT fans (over 30) and younger fans (under 20). The older group is still stuck in the 80's and the younger group only listens to DT, thus DT being the best and only band in the world.

Hey! I'm a 16 year old DT fan, and I think they're a good/great band but I've lost the spark for them now.

You're free to insult us Tool fanboys though, that is all true.

Any fans that dress up like clowns or exaggerated Goths or any other clones. My brothers are Tool fans, and my older one does think that nothing is better than them, but other than that, I've never come in contact with any annoying fans.

Although I do remember in high school there was a kid that was a huge ICP fan, and I think the only thing he didn't do was paint his face. I remember those Powerpuff girls socks though. I guess his appearance was pretty annoying.

I voted for Juggalos, but the most annoying are people who think that their musical tastes are better than all others, and always explain why in great detail while also trashing the taste of whoever they are talking to.

I didn't believe it either but I went to my first Tool show a few years back and I was surrounded by idiots "OMG MAyNARD HAS NO SHIRT ONHE IS THE ULTIMATE MUSICIAN!!!!"

I just put it away, well the next show I catch the next day, same fucking thing with different people.

Not sure about the "older" part, I've indeed seen some who prove this, and some who don't. As for "younger" - no way. I've seen such a huge variety of different <20 DT fans that any kind of generalisation here is really pointless.
