It seems to happen in every single fandom that has older versions of something new: the hard-core fan who doesn't want other kinds of fans (usually new fans) to exsist (like, anywhere) because "THIS FANDOM IS MINE MINE MINE AND YOU CAN'T BE ON THE INTERNET BECAUSE YOU'RE DESTROYING THE PURITY OF THIS SHOW/MOVIE/BOOK/COMIC!!!! *STOMP STOMP STOMP*" Mwah.
