Flint, I have to say, those descriptions are so so funny.

So anyway, which one ARE you really, and which one would you like to be?

Aliantha · 11-01-2007, 07:19 AM

OK, I found this one and had to post it. There's definitely one or two of these here...aren't there UG?

Loopy's messages are incomprehensible to all but himself. Loopy is easily aroused and exuberant in battle and fearlessly flings himself at any Warrior - even Kung-Fu Master. Loopy's main weapons consist of a disarming array of nonsequiturs, tautologies, and bizarre metaphors, which can often gain him an advantage in the initial stages of an attack. Combatants very quickly realize, however, that Loopy is a certifiable nut case and generally avoid further engagement. Jerk and Evil Clown revel in egging Loopy on for their own amusement. CAUTION: Loopy cannot be defeated with conventional weapons - any response to his attacks will provoke a fusillade of incoherent messages, so Loopy is best left undisturbed.

For anyone who's interested, I recommend looking up Centurion and Troglodyte also. I nearly peed myself Merc. Seriously. lol

This one's for you UT:

Admin is the janitor, the cop, the mayor, the judge and sometimes even the forum doctor who tends to Warriors injured in battle - in other words, Nanny on steroids. Because he runs the forum and sets the rules Admin has the power to pull the plug on any Warrior who gets a little too frisky. Sometimes his efforts are appreciated, but like any authority figure he is also resented - especially by Jerk, Evil Clown, Enfant Provocateur, Ego, Rebel Without a Clue, Yuk Yuk, Troller, and other Warriors who would like to turn the forum into their personal playground. Most Admins are generally fair and even handed, but the adage that absolute power corrupts absolutely is as true on the internet as it is anywhere else, and it is a rare Admin who can resist bringing the hammer down if seriously pressed by a determined foe. Sycophant and other suckups (that must be the clique) will also attach themselves to a strong Admin to form a defensive perimeter around him, and more often than not Admin's enemies will be driven off without him ever having to brandish his ax. CAUTION: Admin is the most powerful of all Warriors and drawing him into direct battle invites almost certain defeat. Rebel Leader does pose a limited threat to Admin's power by fomenting a revolt and causing forum members to jump ship

ok, I'm getting outta this thread before I get into trouble. lol

Hey, thanks Ali, you saved me the trouble of clicking on the link.

Shawnee123 · 11-01-2007, 09:00 AM

I clicked on the link first and was interested to see where, if anywhere, people pigeonholed themselves in the posts that followed. Only to find all the posts were Ali! We may not have ourselves figured out, but she does.

Some names were missing to protect the innocent, but you know who you are.

Perry Winkle · 11-01-2007, 09:20 AM

Where do I fit?

I read through most of them but didn't find any one that fit very well.

lumberjim · 11-01-2007, 09:37 AM

kind of a lot of wasted time cutting and pasting if you;re NOT going to tell us who you see fitting which character ali.....i mean.....what glatt said.

HungLikeJesus · 11-01-2007, 02:25 PM

Wow! That might be a record for sequential posting.

I'm now off to read all other Cellar threads to confirm.

See you in January.

Ummmmmmmm
Sorry, I think this might be me (bolding mine)

Quote:

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.

At first I thought atheist, but I don't mess with people's religous threads.

Quote:

Target is the guy everyone in a forum loves to hate. He brings this upon himself; he may be a known cheater in a game forum, a conservative among liberals, a Windows guy among Mac enthusiasts, or even a man in a women's forum. Why Target places himself in such dicey situations is anyone's guess, but he seems genuinely oblivious to the danger. When Warriors unleash their collective fury upon him his usual reaction is "Hey, what did I do?" or "Why do you all hate me?" Target eventually gets the hint after a while and moves on. NOTE: Target often serves as a useful pressure valve for the forum's pent up hostilities. Therefore, if the current Target has been driven off or immobilized a new target will be quickly selected. CAUTION: Target is a favorite disguise of Troller amd Evil Clown.

For Tireless Rebutter there is no such thing as a trivial dispute. He regards all challenges as barbarians at the gates. His unflagging tenacity in making his points numbs and eventually wears down the opposition. Confident that his arguments are sound, Tireless Rebutter can't understand why he is universally loathed.

Though I think all personal attacks are trivial and beneath me and feel like I should not have humored them.
