Pink Floyd, Jethro Tull & Porcupine Tree overly technical?
I bet KISS are too technical for you as well.

and most of them think they're the best thing to happen to music. Like Dream Theatre for instance. Prog fans thinking prog is the only good genre of music doesn't help either.

That is completely made up crap and you know it, you judge that simply on the half a dozen self proclaimed proggies on MB, and none of them from my memory are very closed minded, LesPaul is very open to Indie, Magmamar is into everything, I know little about Seltzer but I can assume he listens to more than prog. Most prog fans I know are pretty open minded to other genres, mainly classical, jazz, metal and some alternative rock... Though most prog fans dispise punk, I won't deny that.
Oh, and way to go for using what I consider to be the worst prog band of all time to make your example.
