A person who claims thrash metal, outside of the big four(Metallica, Megadeth, Slayer, and Anthrax), is the best genre of music. They also claim their music is better than anything you listen to. Also known as a metal snob.

An insult used on a person who knows alot bout Heavy Metal, because he refuses to accept the insulter's favorite Grindcore Punk band as being part of this music genre.
"Metal Elitists" are usually described as being rude. This might be true or not depending on how long they have been listening to Heavy Metal and the character of the person itself. A "Metal Elitist" who has been listening to Heavy Metal for example 7 years are actually the usual ones being bullied.

Dude1: - "DAMN, Avenged Sevenfold is the greatest 'Metal' band THAT EVER LIVED!"
Dude2 (supposed Metal Elitist): - "I don't think they are Heavy Metal, they're more like a combination of Hardcore Punk intrumentals with Emo Punk vocals, and a small but not significant touch of Heavy Metal. I would call them Punk.
Dude1: - "ZOMG, what are you talking about? THEY MAKE NOISE! Therefore, THEY'RE METAL! YOU ELITIST! I bet you think those old fucks Black Sabbath are Metal! LOL, you're weird.

Metal Elitist is a term made up by people that hate die hard Metal fans that are 100% Metalheads. These anti-Metal people want them to go hand in hand with the idea of all being assholes.
A real Metal Elitist is a person that only loves and listens to Metal while not supporting any other type of music in any way. Yet, most people have an extremely negative view of this idea because Metal Elitists can be rude or posers pretending to be Elitists.
The biggest genres that Metal Elitists usually attack is Deathcore, Metalcore, Nu-Metal, and Rapcore. Many believe Deathcore is a rival of Death Metal which makes seniority and skill come to mind. Metalcore is compared to an Emo like style of vocals/musicianship. Nu-Metal is believe to be the biggest sellout genre to mainstream (non-Metal) audiences. Rapcore has rapping as vocal style and Rap has always been the nemesis of Metal.

There's nothing wrong with only listening to metal. Most definitions on here seem to be by people who have never listened to metal.
