The regular

The least irritating of all forum life, knows the rules and abides by them most days...but knows how to get a laugh. Creates a real sense of community when these creatures gather together.


The troll

A person who appears out of nowhere and decides to be negative or downright insulting to everyone or sometimes a lone, vulnerable regular or n00b. Thoroughly irritating but if completely ignored will go away on every occasion, do not feed this beast however as it brings only headaches.


The spree poster

This creature is most notable for a high-speed DSL connection that allows them to reply to nearly every thread on the first page of a forum before you even have a chance to refresh. Can be irritating as often their posts have little to no depth and often is hybridized with the troll.


The n00b

This breed knows nothing of the rules or the regulars and the acronym F.A.Q has never even registered in their enfeebled brains. Notable for repeated duplicate posts, HTML questions that have been answered in a thread directly below the new topic they created. Believes it is quite okay to just post 30 topics in as many seconds and not get any abuse for it.


The drunk poster

This breed is not necessarily drunk but they type as though they are at all times, on the occasion you meet a lesser spotted REAL drunk poster the encounter can be pleasant but the more common variety favours eye-hurting sticky caps typing and ebonics....to be noted is their use of emoticons far more than is necessary, likely their name will even have one special character in it.

The moderators

Do not fuck with us.

nifty

You’ve forgot about Flamers. They exist to abuse. They love to do it. They are coming to forum for it. And after moderators kicks them off, they register again and do that again. It is subdivision of trolls.

I don't mean to bump old threads, but I think all forums can use this.
