If controversy with the fandom overshadows the game then it might count as Overshadowed by Controversy, but I don't think an item like this would work on this wiki. Fan Dumb is Flame Bait for a reason.

I do some cleanup and then I enjoy shows you probably think are cringe.

There's also Why Fandom Can't Have Nice Things.

We used to have something like this (called Tainted By The Fanbase, I think), problem is such a page would just attract complaining, complaining about the complaining, complaining about the complaining about the complaining, and jerks.
