Line 15:
The SHFG is a specific subspecies of [[Fan Hater]]s, who dislike/condescend to "casual" gamers who don't play the same way they do. It also overlaps with [[Complacent Gaming Syndrome]], where the players use only one or two characters/strategies/levels to make winning easier.
In a more general manner "Stop Having Fun!" Guys can appear anywhere something enjoyable can be twisted into [[Serious Business]]. They will inevitably divide approaches to the subject into the "right way" (theirs) and the "wrong way" (everyone else's), and give grief to (or even actively sabotage) all who do not adhere to their concept of "proper" participation.
See also: [[Scrub]], [[Serious Business]], [[Fan Dumb]] and [[Internet Backdraft]]. The larval form of the SHFG is the [[Munchkin]]. See [[It's Easy, So It Sucks]] for the mentality that sometimes results from the single-player form of this.
