It looks like this has drifted from DEFENDING the group (\\\"No true Scotsman would do that!\\\") to being about gatekeeping by claiming someone is not a true fan, with the quote and image being about the latter. Maybe that could be its own trope? (Yes, I\\\'m too lazy/busy to actually take this to the Trope Repair Shop or whatever, I\\\'m just driving by.)

Edit: Or would that latter thing be a sort of subtrope? Does it actually fit within the defition? I still don\\\'t think it should dominate by having both the quote and the image be about it.

I guess it would count as gameplay footage. Don\\\'t know if the counter would count as a sort of soft release schedule.
