Flame Warriors

Well botankus, I'll take that as mostly positive.

As for Big Evil's post, I guess we can all have our opinions of other members, even when not asked, or even if you have here barely long enough to know anyone well enough to pass judgement. Maybe you're just posting to get attention, don't worry, it's not that we haven't noticed you, it's just that no one has noticed enough to care.

They have names for posters like that.

*raises hand* I know it Mr. Botankus, I know it, I know it. Let me answer, please, pleeeeeeeaaaaaaassssssseeeee.

Enfant Provocateur likes to stir up trouble because...because, well...just because. This species of Flame Warrior is almost always young and male - it could be just a hormone thing.

Like his Congressional namesake, Filibuster attempts to influence the forum simply by holding the floor. His monotonous hectoring and prodigious output of verbiage rapidly clears the field of other Warriors.

Unsteady in his knowledge of computers and cyberculture Newbie perambulates the internet, blithely stumbling his way into discussion forums. He seldom reads the FAQs and is utterly clueless about the basics of netiquette. When engaged in battle Newbie's usual tactical gambit is to feign helplessness, often going limp or crying when cornered. While Newbie doesn't seek conflict he will lash out comically when his feelings are hurt. Most Warriors will either ignore Newbie or treat him with mild disdain, but a few, such as Jerk and Evil Clown, take special pleasure in torturing him. Others, especially Propeller Head and Xenophobe, have a particular animus against Newbie and view his bumbling as an affront that must be punished.

If you were attempting to flex your flame warrior muscles you failed dude. I have formed a new world order of flame warriors. 😮‍💨

Crystal>Deacon.
Brian>Centurion.
Justin>Idealogue. (Right-wing.)
Pete>Troglodyte.
Myself>Capitalista.

Our forum friend PVS..

Lonely Guy doesn't get out much, and often his social isolation can drive him to do battle just for the human contact. Compassion dictates that we shouldn't get too upset with his antics. Nonetheless, Lonely Guy can be very fierce. Remember, he has nothing better to do than stew over real or imagined insults. CAUTION: If Lonely Guy is also a Propeller Head he may retaliate with e mail bombing, anonymous spamming, electronic stalking and other techie mischief.

Kung Fu Master

Though very complimentive of you and I like KidRock and all, but let's be honost dude. Kung-Fu Masters are few and far between. Like Jedi..

Are you refering to jedi before ROTS or after?

Who could be that.....?

Netiquette Nazi is in control and does not tolerate back talk, especially from a sniveling worm like you. She demands the strictest adherence forum protocols and rules of engagement . If you deviate in the slightest you WILL be punished. Even Admin is careful not to attract her ire.

haha, that's good stuff.

I wonder what you guys think I am.

You are the eagle scout 😛 ............or not.....one or the other

Paranoid Scizzz.... 😂

Xenophobe is usually a long-term discussion forum participant and he thinks of the forum as his private compound. Xenophobe regards new forum arrivals as mentally deficient and perhaps even having criminal tendencies, and they are invariably approached with suspicion and condescension. Xenophobe will mount a furious attack if a Newbie has the temerity to make critical observations about the forum's social dynamics, or questions its prevailing opinions.

That's fantastic, lol.

BTW, I think I displayed some Kung Fu Mastery in the "Biggest Dick" thread this afternoon...

I'm a Dream Warrior!

It's not on that site though 😬

For Coffee Klatch the discussion forum is a social gathering - like Mah Jong or Wednesday morning canasta club. Coffee Klatch prefers a friendly, chatty environment and almost always limits her participation to non-technical forums. Whether inadvertently or by design, Coffee Klatch prepares the battlefield in her favor by making it soggy with pleasant, but vapid messages - her favorite phrase often being, "thanks for sharing". This renders the battlefield rather slow going for swifter and more powerful Warriors. CAUTION: If war does break out she will shed her benign facade and attack mired Warriors without remorse.

I've seen this one on Comic Book Versus Forums. Read the Batman VS You thread...

BASELESS BULLY:

Baseless Bully's strategy in battle is to refer to his physical capability in an attempt to intimidate forum members into retreat. He can refer to his 6'8, 300 lb frame of solid muscle, his capability of curling 100 lb weights, his six years of training under a martial arts master, or his fights against three bikers armed with knives and beer bottles. Sometimes, Baseless Bully tries to play a 'gentle giant' only occasionaly referring to his combat prowress while usually laughing off all challenges. Other times, Baseless bullys can be ferocious, loudly claiming how he could easily 'snap the necks of all you 98 lb. geeks.' Obviously, since physical capability does not help at all over the internet, Baseless bully is a weak warrior. Most grugingly admit defeat, though some will claim they will figure out where a forum member lives so that he may show his ability in person. Even in the rare occasion where Baseless Bully's claims may have an element of truth, very few forum goes ever believe his claims.

Perhaps I am this one.

No one is quite certain what makes a Reaper, least of all himself. The only thing that is known is that he has an uncanny talent (which some might call a curse) to end any discussion that he is involved in. Whether it's something he says, something in his demeanor, or simple chance, if you run across a number of old threads with the same last poster, chances are you've encountered one of these unfortunate individuals.

Almost every thread I make get only three or four responses...

Hey! I consider myself a Xenophobe! 😛
I'm not sure why they would be considered a paranoid 'scizz,' though. I thought they just hated newbies.
