Lol I know you always thought I was one of

Anyway to be fair the 'shmups community' doesnt really exist anymore, during these past two years it's finished splitting into several entities, the largest being on shitscords or twatter.
At ye olde shmups forums, well, the real worst guys don't even go there anymore, and it's become more like a slightly more crowded BYOAC now.
You could probably go back there yourself and actually have decent conversations now lol.
Anyway yes there is and actual style and tone relatively easy to identify from the worst bunch of them, because it's born from the defunct 4chan thread.
