Forum Personalities

The Severe Poster
This post will post anything, at anytime. Most times the posts he makes contribute very little to the thread. This person equates a lot posts with accomplishment.

Grammar Police
Every forum has one of these. They will not only go to great lengths to correct simple misspelled words, but will also try and correct l33t as well. They will venture into the realm of grammar as well. This forum poster is usually dismissed by the forum community as someone with nothing more to contribute than their good spelling.

The Big Head
This poster knows more about the game than you. This poster knows more about you than you at times. Everything in the game is easy to this poster. They tend to have short, one sentence posts which basically boil down to you being a noob and them not being a noob.

The Complainer
Nothing is good enough for this forum poster. The game is either too hard/too easy for them. Most aspects of the game need massive amount of work in order to live up to their standards. They will complain about people in the game, game mechanics, game play, and anything else they can get their hands on. Meh is their reply to any sensible post.

The Arguer
This forum dweller lives for an argument. They have a snappy comeback for anything that may not be 100% correct. They do not have the ability to understand generalizations, only specifics.

Idiot
These types tend to either be very young, very unintelligent, or do not speak the language native to the forum in question. They utilize a lot of l33t, seldom use punctuation, and are huge fans of the ‘Wall of Text’ method of posting. Mostly ignored, they tend to continue their posting and pay little mind to those to try to correct them.

The Creator
This person will actually go out of his/her way to make something original or funny for general forum consumption. These are the type of forum posters that created orly owls. This poster can be mean if their work is met with little appreciation.

The Supervisor
This poster believes he/she is an unofficial moderator. They will tell people to calm down, not argue, don’t violate forum rules etc. This person tends to treat the forums like a job, because most likely, they do not have a job in real life. They take their forum time very seriously, and won’t tolerate anyone messing it up.

Bipolar Poster
This is the kind of poster that you can never be friends with. One minute they are cool with you, the next they aren't.

The ThreadJacker
This person lives for taking a thread off subject. They especially enjoy derailing a serious topic. Some more popular methods of derailment are the posting of lols, ..., 1234567, meh, etc.

The Wall
This type of poster has always done something more or better than you. If you have a Masters in Physiology, they have a PhD. This is the hardest poster to get along with, they are like talking to a wall.

The Troll
This is the poster that will post anything to get attention. They will post senseless threads about TV shows that just started 10 minutes ago or about going to sleep. In a Troll's mind, the letter "a" is good enough for a thread. *Does not include Trollbrain*

The Idol
This is the type of poster that everyone sucks up too. Even is the idol doesn't have a good personality, somehow every will suck up to them and expect you to too.

The Groupie
This poster usually usually clinches to forum groups or important people. The groupie feels the need to be protected by the companionship of players or forum groups. Usually if you insult a groupie, he/she will use everything is his/her power to bring their friends into the conflict.

The Insulter
The insulter is a poster who has a little amount of friends. If any friends, they will usually be idols or someone somehow important in the forum. This poster will most likely insult another poster for no reason. Although the insulters do a lot of insulting, they rarely receive infractions.

Average Joe
The average joe is exactly average. Sometimes combined on two or more personalities, the average joe usually spends his/her time posting regularly and not doing any more than that. Sometimes joining important debates and sometime spamming, usually the average joe is the easiest poster to get along with.

The Compensator
This poster usually feels that he/she must brag about mostly fictional things. They usually have real life issues and feel the need to brag about themselves in some fictional way. The compensator is know to make comments about sexual things or about their ability in sports or education.

The Body Guard
The body guard is one of the most atrocious posters. They feel the need to defend a poster against the insulter. The body guard will usually make just as bad comments to the insulter as the insulter would make. Although they can sometimes be irritating, the body guard adds balance to the forums and sometimes can help you in a situation. Some body guards may also be called suck-ups or groupies too.

The Lurker
The Lurker is if not the most, one of the most mysterious of the posters. He/she will rarely post but instead, read almost every post in the forum. They usually know a lot about the posters and can sometimes be dangerous. Every once in a while the lurker will feel a need to make maybe one to two post on a subject and then run to hide in the amidst. It is recommended to stay away from lurkers.

The Normie

Normies are called normies because they are the norm- the average- and the droll. Normies lack the ability to see connections as Weirds can and are often hard to communicate with. They are more prone to start or instigate fights and are more often then not the people who watch and hoot at fights on the street or at school.(Note that if you're a normie, you most likely still belong in another group)

The Weirdie

Weirds make up a low percentage of the worlds population and even lower in America. Weirds are more prone to reason-ability and often have a higher IQ than Normies. Having a higher IQ means that they can see patterns and learn/store information much easier and faster. Weirds make up a large part of the Off-topic population and enjoy educated debates. (Note that if you're a weird, you most likely still belong in another group)

The Pretender

Although The Pretender sounds like it's someone who pretends to be something, it's a little deeper. The Pretender is a poster who comes in pretending to be a different gender. Such as, a guy pretending to be a girl and making threads that say "Girls Only". They usually have fetishes and are very dangerous posters. Usually, asking a lot of information about you and tracking your every move. This is a very dangerous poster and should be avoided.

Thanks for putting this together Rich, hopefully I'm doing this right:

Mattypoole:

Average Joe - been a bit quick to flame etc at times in the past, trying to stick more to this poster profile nowadays.
The Arguer - I can be an arguementative bugger by nature, though I'm not as quick to let this part of my nature take control nowadays, not that it still doesn't get the better of me sometimes ":)
The Weirdie - probably my favorite aspect of the forums is learning from the debates that can happen on various aspects of the games, it's interesting to see how the top players approach these things.

I'd probably say in the past I was 50/40/10, I'd say 60/20/20 more recently.

The Weirdie
Arguer - *Shrugs* you don't strike me as the arguementative type, but I was running out of ideas and I know you have the odd debate on the forums ":)
