General Chat

Can any of the older members remember the link put up about Internet wums trolls etc? The one that described each type of person. it was very funny but I can't remember what it was called and where it is. Mick from the Bush was the last to put the link up

I may have it in my watched threads; Steve (Durham Boffin / Flirt) posted it, too.

I was just reading one of Steve The Flirts threads :-)

I was wanting to read it again Joy and am sure many newer members would find it highly entertaining, so if you find it it may be a good idea to post the link on a new thread with its full title.

Here's one -

Flame Warriors: Recognise Yourself ??

Ta Sue.....and Sheila .not sure if that is the same one but looks interesting enough to keep me busy for a while :-D


Edit:- That is the one Joy.......but with the others too I suppose they had better stay on here and I will change the OP

And the most important rule - DON'T FEED THE TROLL :-D

:-D @ Sue......indeedy

"Be he a Baptist, Scientologist or Zoroastrian, in the heat of battle Deacon will call down Divine retribution on all net sinners, and will never miss an opportunity to blather endlessly about his religion. Deacon is fervent and earnest, but seldom contributes anything of interest or substance to the discussion. Occasionally Tireless Rebutter or Philosopher will rouse themselves engage Deacon in battle, but they soon lose interest because of his utter predictability."

Love this one :-D

Yes that was it Sheila.. :-)

"Cyber Sisters are an extremely fierce confederation of fighting females who act something like a shrill Greek chorus, echoing and amplifying one another's voice until their foes retreat in disarray. They are generally leaderless, but anyone who challenges one Cyber Sister can expect to be savagely attacked by the others. Only the most powerful and battle-hardened of Warriors is strong enough to weather a Cyber Sisters attack."

:-D :-D :-D

Big Dog is a bully who doesn't hesitate to use his superior strength to intimidate other combatants. Big Dog may be smart, articulate or just plain mean, but in any case he is a remorseless fighter, brutally ripping into even the weakest of combatants. Once Big Dog securely fastens his powerful jaws on a hapless victim, Me-Too will join the attack. Me-Too is far too weak and insecure to engage in single combat, and must ally himself with Big Dog or a pack of other Warriors to bring down his quarry.

mind you...there are some great caricatures on the site...well worth a look

lol

don't you just love them


Warriors often underestimate Toxic Granny's fighting abilities. She can be very aggressive, and because of the deference paid to the elderly, not only does Toxic Granny easily attract allies to aid in her defense, but her foes are reluctant to employ their strongest weapons against her. Prudent Warriors avoid confrontations with Toxic Granny because there is ignominy in defeat and no glory
in victory.

i reconise many of those trolls :-D :-D

I can remember adding to that, post has gone when I ended my membership last time...lolol

I love:

Bliss Ninny doesn't understand why people just can't get along. While it is entirely unintentional, Bliss Ninny's utterly vacuous comments can drive the more pugnacious Warriors into a frenzy of aggression. Often in the heat of battle Bliss Ninny will discuss her cat.

Love the caricatures, Susanwithnumbers :-D

lol Sue


Evil Clown is very quick with a joke, but his jests always have a barb. He has little patience for in-depth discussions and will often disrupt exchanges between serious forum participants by introducing irrelevant topics, fatuous quips, and offhand comments. His greatest thrill is to taunt and humiliate weaker or more plodding Warriors with his snappy ripostes. Not a particularly powerful Warrior, Evil Clown will attempt to avoid defeat by accusing his attacker of having no sense of humor.

:-D :-D

and who can ignore?

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.
