Least irritating fan bases?

We certainly don't qualify. Anytime anyone gets into a franchise argument, we can just start babbling about #23.

I vote the Raptors, based on the number of posters on here with hilarious, self effacing Raptors sigs.

Raptors fans were pretty bad peak Bosh-may-be-leaving era...

The answer is going to be any team that has almost no fans.

Oh my lord no. The Raps have some great fans here, no doubt about it. Knowledgeable and reasonable. But it's such a large fanbase that there can't help but being an ample share of ... well... the opposite. If you were around here much during Chris Bosh's later days as a Raptor you know what I mean.

But their best fans are right up there among RealGM's best.

I don't think that I've ever seen a San Antonio fan trolling or uber-obnoxious. But they have very little RealGM activity, period. Same with New Orleans. In general, the least annoying fanbases are probably those with low levels of activity. And the obverse holds as well.

EDIT: I was typing my post as organix made his, and while our points were almost identical he was much more succinct.

When the Raptors do well, there is a fringe element that troll many of the other Forums and insult the other teams & their fans.

However, none of the regular, respected posters do this. The Raptors - when successful - draw in a lot of bandwagon fans who misbehave.

Similar to the Heat fans. They picked up a huge following here on Real GM since LeBron joined them. Just look at Real GM hire dates. Almost all of their trolls are from the bandwagon fans.

But let's be fair - a number of our fans are no different. Some Bulls fans created enemies by trolling last season once the Bulls started doing well.

The Raptors fans are the funniest fans on realgm for sure. A lot of great, creative and informed posters. But a lot of overly sensitive douchebags too.

The correct answer is: The Atlanta Hawks. They don't have hadly any fans, and the few fans that they do have are shouted down by the Bulls fans in attendance.

Canada has only 472 a-holes. But all of them are realgm posters.

Agreed. It's hard to be annoyed by something that doesn't exist. That goes for the RealGM boards as well.

I'll go with Raptors.. they're devotion is great. They've had bad teams for most of the franchise's life and they've got some of the best fan numbers, not to mention a nutty atmosphere. You get trolls everywhere, and of course they are an Eastern conference competitor, but they don't annoy me like Heat and Knicks fans.

Don't get me wrong, I'll stand with any Bulls fan, but we have some wack trade proposals and in typical homer fashion overrate our own and underestimate other stars. Then when the struggles come, fickle trade scenarios start popping out like babies. But then that is the point of RealGM, as it would be quite boring if we all agreed on how to be GMs.

I've always had a soft spot for Raptors fans since we had that epic shared game thread in the Cavs forums a Couple years ago.

On this forum?

The MOST annoying fans have been Knicks, cHeat and Raptors, they are miles above anyone else in my experience.

I'm just talking about visitors here (not the GB), and I'll also note that we perhaps don't always get their best and brightest as visitors.

There are a lot of fan bases that I've so rarely seen here, I couldn't pick out one.

Also I would have expected the Lakers and Celtics to have the most trolls as they've won over half of the NBA titles, but they rarely every troll, in fact considering how good the teams are I might have to nominate their fans.

Bucks and Pacers wouldn't be least annoying.

I remember that, does anybody have the link to that thread?

long time Bulls fan here, I say the least irritating is the Raptors because they seem to know how bad they suck, while fan bases like Detroit Pistons always are 100% sure they're gonna be 5th seed every single year.
