Gamer is the modern term for those who are connoisseurs of games, particularly video games.

Studies on the other, shit end of Gamerdom

Gamers who comprise the bad end of the fandom of video games are of a more insufferable and intolerable nature.

They are usually known by these traits online, and not limited to:

• Anti-social behavior
• Resentful tone
• Passive Aggressive attitude
• Confrontational disposition
• A self entitled sense of elite standing
• Forms of humor rooted in sarcasm, being "snarky", and/or dark humor
• Speech that come out in a ranting and/or whining fashion
• Off hand off topic racism, especially directed to Japanese people
• A general degree of pathos-less unrelatable unpleasantness

These traits usually stem from a lack of self esteem, ill natured upbringing from years of bullying and a lack of self respect, and a vast degree of ignorance brought on by their environment and upbringing. Their demographics also branch into other categories of people and subcultures, especially neckbeards.

Overall, these kinds of Gamers are the ones that usually give any other connoisseurs of video games a bad name. They do not just comprise of average people, but to those that have joined various video game related publications and news sources, those that host sites dedicated to various favored series, and those of /v/ on 4chan.

While these traits are not unique to the worst of video game fans (the worst of fans exist in any fandom), it is due to the unusual degree of unpleasantness that gamers get the attention of Lurkmore and its researchers.

Top Ten Lists of "Worst Gamers"

It's very ironic that the pot calls the kettle black and proclaims itself as the true scotsman, especially when the worst of gamers tend to give examples and end up as one of their own.

Creators and followers of Top Ten lists are always the biggest offenders of this, as while they often note nuisances and other examples, those that usually fight monsters end up as one without a sense of self reflection, as they will always show the traits that define a bad video game fan, and create nothing but clickbait out of their ass. It's like they're usually hiding something, and it's often the fact it's usually the writers are up there with the worst kinds of gamers.
