it almost feels like something got lost once we hit 2004-ish. I dunno, I feel like around that time, anime fans started to get more and more obnoxious and/or more elitist towards one another. What was popular at the time? what could make people flip like a switch from being somewhat decent to downright obnoxious?

in an unrelated, but somehow related thought: I feel like there should be somesort of 10 commandments of Anime Cons written somewhere on the side of a building at a con for people to listen and to obey, but then again, most people will for the sake of ether them not understanding how the old ways work or people just being edgy.
