Twitter Snob 

Someone on Twitter who replies to or retweets posts only by Twitter users with lots of followers, usually because he or she deems comments from users without many followers as inherently less worthy, regardless of objective evaluation of the wit or wisdom of said comments, or because there is not as much of a benefit to him or her (such as gaining followers of the popular user)
"Did you see the funny tweets between the guy who writes for Slate and the ABC reporter?'"

"Yeah, the guy from ABC said the same thing I did but about 5 minutes after I did, yet he was retweeted because that reporter for Slate is a Twitter Snob who wouldn't retweet me."

Fogey/fogy /fougi/ sl. (early 18C+, orig. Scot) old-fashioned, stuck-in-the mud.

You think me an old fogeyand an old tory, his thoughtful voice said. I saw three generations since O’Connel’s time. I remember the famine. Do you know that the orange lodges agitated for repeal of the union twenty years before O’Connel did or before the prelates of your communion denounced him as a demagogue? You fenians forget some things. (James Joyce, Ulysses. Penguin Books,1992. p. 38)
