Not at all, what was considered metal in 1987 is just hard rock in 2017. Things evolve and change over time Metal is no exception

Those bands are good in their own and as transitioning bands. They act as jumping points from normal hard rock to shit I generally listen to

That's not how things work. Genres do evolve, but that doesn't remove older things from the genre, it just creates new sub-genres.

If you can't get on an appropriate level then certain things aren't for you, you may call it gatekeeping but in reality it's called life.

Who died and made you High Inquisitor of Metal music

I'm not THE authority on Metal and I never claimed to be however, I've been listening to Metal almost exclusively all across the spectrum for over 15 years and have been a dedicated member of one one hardest active Metal scenes in the U.S. today for almost a decade with easily over a hundred metal shows under my belt. So I'd say I've earned the right to judge people on this subject

Curious then in your wisdom you take an elitist and confrontational stance to people who aren't as big a fan as you, instead of a welcoming and accepting one. But hey, I guess if you want a badge of honour or something just for enjoying something it's all yours broski.

You should see the Anime: Other Titles board.

Conversations tend to go like this:

You: Hey, what do you guys think of this show? It got good reviews on wiki and various websites.
1st Poster: Uh, utter garbage, I wouldn't even recommend it to my diseased braindead dog to shit on. Here's some slice of life high school romance anime about 4 teenage girls dealing with puberty, that's the real shit
2nd Poster: How can you even recommend that trash? OP's recommendation might be garbage not worthy to poop on but your recommendation I wouldn't even tell my worst enemy in the galaxy to watch. Here's some off the wall romance comedy about a guy and a girl who like each other (spoilers: it never gets resolved).
3rd Poster: Uh, none of you weaboos can call yourselves true fans of the genre. While you watched the anime I bought the original manuscripts straight from the artist and learned Japanese just to truly appreciate it in its purest form. If you didn't do this don't even talk to me about your tastes.

Ad infinitum.
