Might wanna reconsider lacing your opinion with insults if you want to hold a conversation (that's been discussed at length in other threads, actually). It's offensive as hell to imply that people hosting events in their houses, which are designed to encourage thematic roleplay, is "pushing" players there. Nice dig at calling those sorts of thing "trite, monotonous" events, too.
Pleasant fellow, that Gus.
And these two posts right here are the answer to the question being posed: RP communities are full of folks with thin skin.
If RPC is a microcosm, just take a look at the World Wide Web as an example of a macrocosm. Websites are thrown up for folks, and like-minded individuals cluster together and ostracize/excommunicate/exclude those that aren't like-minded.
Flocking together in cliques is natural human behavior. It happens on the internet (the only places where this doesn't happen as extensively require you to have a thick skin, e.g. 4chan) and it happens in communities such as this one (folks gathering together by common interests/goals and "bubbling").
