As their Primarch laid out the [[Codex Astartes]], they follow it precisely and set the standard for almost all other Space Marine chapters, and are [[Games Workshop]]'s default chapter of choice and the most common army choice of new Space Marines players (as the marine starting box sets are universally Ultramarine-based). Given the normal qualities of new Space Marines players, the Ultramarines are not particularly highly-regarded on /tg/.

The Ultramarines are a chapter of Space Marines, and GW keeps stuffing them wherever they can, blubbering that they are their default chapter of choice or similar nonsense.

Thanks to the GW's PR campaign, lots of newfags have raging hard-on on Ultramarines, and have formed a common image of a typical Ultramarine player: ignorant of the rules, new to the hobby, and without any will to paint his minis right.

Ultramarines are considered to be boring by the majority of /tg/ posters, this to be expected for anything default and forced so hard at that, really. The chapter has received a deteriorative nickname 'Smurfs' (Chapter Master Magneus Calgar thus becoming Papa Smurf) for their resemblance of the blue midgets, and is generally referred to in a pejorative manner on /tg/.
