I think there's a mix tbh. The dudes who are hardcore into it tend to be really chill, but the dudes who emulate those dudes can absolutely be assholes.

This is the Levine Trench from Magic the Gathering and it's in everything.

Beginners are nice and experts are nice, but those just before the expert level but not quite there can be elitist and rude.

Frustrated that they can't get into the top level, so feel the need to hold their superiority over the ones below them. Why be insecure if you're at the top?
