From a 2014 FNaF Fan
To all of the FNaF fans who grew up alongside me, I ask we stop the gatekeeping. I've noticed toxicity and gatekeeping have become way too common play in the community and I think we should stop.
To the new FNaF fans who came into the fandom from the Steel Wool games onward. Hello, it's a pleasure to have you joining the fandom. Enjoy your time here <3.
Whether you grew up alongside the Classic Animatronics like myself, or emerged as the Glamrocks were taking their place on stage to kick this new era off, we are all still FNaF fans and we are united in that way, whether we joined as early as 2014 or as late as 2024.
We are all valid. And the date we joined the fandom doesn't determine that. Billions upon billions of people have had their lives changed by this series, and I am just one within a sea of voices. No one's story is invalid because of the date they joined our fanbase.
Classic or Glamrock
FNaF 1 or FNaF HW2
Markiplier or Dawko
The Novel Trilogy or The Movie
We all joined at different points, yet we are all still connected by the love of what Scott had given us. And I think it's important we never forget our own roots.
Everyone starts somewhere, and if it's today then it's perfectly okay.
Welcome to the fandom, you may have a lot to catch up on but there will be people to guide you.
