Your opinion is your opinion (which is fine) but how you chose to frame your opinion resulted in you 'getting lambasted.' If you say 'I feel fan games are...' then you are only stating your opinion but the minute you say fan games are s***, you have insulted people (those who make games and those who disagree with you) because it looks like you are belittling their opinion. You walked on very dangerous territory with your statement. Your not the first person who has done it on this forum. It seems the most heated discussions come when the word 'crap' or 's***' is used in reference to something.
