The comments at chessvibes are interesting as well. You do get the feeling that there are distinct camps of Kramnik fans, Carlsen fans, and Anand fans as well. Are there any other chess players that have a large fanbase? Nakamura, maybe. I can't think of many others though. Was it ever like this when Kasparov was dominating?

I think it was always like this.

Those who frequent chessgames.com will be well aware of all those groups. Not forgetting the Wesley So claque :lol:
