Not finger pointing at anyone, just in general. Roleplaying on youtube, like changing your youtube name into an anime character and circlejerking. I know it doesn't effect whether I should enjoy watching anime, but it irks me.
Also, trying to convince someone that a show is bad and they shouldn't watch it. Shit, if a show is bad, I'm sure the watcher knows too.

Explain what you think.

Implying ERASED is not the worst anime ever.
Implying Evangelion is not the best anime ever.
Implying FMA 2003 is not better then FMA:B
RainyRai spamming these same three things in every fucking post he makes
saying bakemonogatari episode 12 was one of the best episodes of the anime, let alone all of monogatari, let alone all of anime.
every single one of my forum posts is dumb and invalid except for 1, I don't claim them it was a different person it was all fake

Aren't the people who make it included in the community? Tregedydesu has a good point regardless. Enough with the half-assed adaptations, wait until it's complete and then adapt it fully.

So anything popular? XD

That's usually the crowd where it's "cool" to hate popular things. Yeah, you can genuinely not like something (I personally didn't like Orange, but a lot of people loved it.), but most of the time they just hate it because it's popular.

these so called haters watched a show because it is popular but they didn't like it. Would be because of popularity or because they have legit reasons?

I'm fine with the community most of the time. A thing that comes to my mind is using the whole scale for rating (or at least not 7-10), they should do it imo.
Another thing may be is to stop the immature behavior of elitist. good taste, shit taste stuff, that is pretty immature, i do understand it if its coming from school/teen folks but when i see adults doing it it's a bit depressing. I mean there are a lot of worse shit that people do, but this isn't helping towards a better community.

Using "autism" as some kind of way to describe an anime, or its characters or whatever.
I seriously never understood what people mean when they use it in that way. Highly doubt they have or know someone with autism. Even then, it's a spectrum disorder, so it has varying degrees of severity; none of the traits make sense when commenting on certain anime/characters.

Ironically, I bet I'll get called "autistic" for this observation, LOL

Stop making threads like "this season sucks" anytime a new season comes. Like, I can understand why people can't like a season, year, decade, etc. or anime, but the same thread each time a new season starts gets tiring very quick.

Forums existing at all. I never post anything, but I ghost these threads a lot because it is sometimes entertaining to watch the shitstorm. I haven't seen a truly interesting, insightful, or genuinely funny post ever on the MyAnimeList forums at least.

I think it's fine that a lot of people just watch anime and don't really care about the creators behind it, but I do, and I wish there were more production nerds, I'd have way more friends that way. I'm so tired of people saying "lol they ran out of budget" and "the animators were so lazy here" when they don't know jack shit.

Stop bitching that anime is dead or dying.
And stop saying that Free/Kill la Kill/OPM/Rose of Versailles/Utena/RE:Zero/Jojo/Yuri on Ice/Princess Tutu/etc, etc will save anime or was the pinnacle of anime and it is all downhill from there. Because it only is a 'savior' or 'pinnacle' in your narrow mind.

During hype season: anything negative about x anime is wrong and you have horrible taste for dislike the best anime ever (for 3 months). Also the over exposure of it doesn't help.
Also the inverse: anything positive about x anime is wrong and you have horrible taste for liking this trash. This one is less common, but still happens.

I do agree with you to an extent, as I know it's not tied specifically to the anime community, but when I first joined MAL, the first time I ever dived into an anime "community", that's when I saw autism being used extensively in that manner. However, yes, it certainly is something widely used on the internet regardless; just that from all the forum communities I've been on, and even after I left MAL some time ago, I rarely see it pop up in those other non-anime communities, unless it's seriously being discussed with proper context.

Hm, that is interesting. I don't really visit many other communites so I can't say. I mainly asscoiate that uses of autism with the "cringe" community.
I find it funny that the anime community is using the word like that because anime fans are usually the ones being called "autistic".

I think the part of the anime community that either wallows in self deprecation or that really believes that being somehow passionate about anime(however a person may show it) is somehow a negative thing should really stop what they're doing or to be exact, they're the cancer that should be removed in this community.

-Overexaggerating a certain series.
-Comparing two series that don't even have any resemblance at all (FMA and Steins;Gate for example).
-Bashing on a certain genre without any knowledge.
-Claiming "anime" and "animation" are different (This is mostly done by my community, Turkish community).
-Claiming a certain anime sucks just because it's outdated or it doesn't have eye-candy graphics.
-Trying to ship almost every character with each other.
-Mixing Japanese with their native language, thinking that it's cute.
-Asking "wut animu" without even searching a certain image on the internet (a.k.a. laziness)

That's all that I could think of at the moment I guess.

I like(not really) when an anime fan hates on anime as a medium, and oddly enough it seems to be the "cool" thing to do nowadays.
I know, I know, there are trolls who don't really mean what they say, but these trolls are even worse than the people who genuinely hate on anime despite being "fans" of it; because they make those "fans" think that their opinion on anime is the popular opinion and that people agree with them, when it's obviously not the case.
Those people are a minority and will keep being a minority. At least, I hope so.
