Some may remember I have previously mentioned a site from the dawn of the internet containing humerous descriptions of messageboard poster stereotypes, and in what seems like a highly spooky coincidence I have just stumbled on it again today!

This website is built on cutting edge technology circa 2001, so a simple url is unavailable. Instead to get to the relevant section first go to http://messageboardfools.com/ and scroll down to 'Fool Games & Tools', click on that and finally select 'Fool Character Sketches'.

St Dav, Lord Bony, Darren, and no doubt many more are all in there -- Enjoy!

Warwick is on there:

'Grammarian' usually has little to contribute to a discussion and possesses few effective weapons. To compensate, he will point out minor errors in spelling and grammar. Because of Grammarian's obvious weakness most of the other posters dismiss him without answering his challenges.

Sprout:

'Profundus Maximus' eagerly holds forth on all subjects, but his thin knowledge will not support a sustained assault and therefore his attacks quickly peter out. Profundus Maximus often uses big words, obscure terms and...ahem...even Latin to bluff his way through battle.

'Profundus Maximus' is clearly St Dav, whereas Spratts - I'm sorry to say - is Filibuster.

And of course in connection with the current discussion of religion in a parallel thread, the messageboardfools website from the dawn of internet time offers conclusive proof of the veracity of the bible:

"The thing that hath been, it is that which shall be; and that which is done, is that which shall be done; and there is no new thing under the sun."

Darran:

'Xenophobe' is usually a long-term discussion forum participant and he thinks of the forum as his tree fort. Xenophobe regards Newbies to his forum as mentally retarded and perhaps even having criminal tendencies, and they are invariably approached with suspicion and condescension. If a Newbie has the temerity to make critical observations about the forum's social dynamics, or questions prevailing opinion, Xenophobe will join with his fellows and attempt to silence or drive out the newcomer

The thing is in real life people are rarely as stereotypical as suggested by the site; instances like 'Profundus Maximus'=St Dav are the exception.

Instead we most often come across composites in the real world, and for me Darran is a blend of Xenophobe and Compost.

Oh yes indeed....

Darran: The Compost Xenophobe:

'Compost' has few weapons at his disposal and must resort to expletives and gross vulgarities to amplify his rhetorical thrusts. His tactical approach can occasionally rout Innocence, but it is generally ineffective against other messageboard posters. Combatants know when he has spent the fury of his attack when he suggests that his opponent's mother is a professional sexual services provider (although he will put it in different terms). Nanny has little stomach for Compost's ordure and will quickly eject him from the forum.

mbl1966 aka boob -- The Yapper

Ill tempered and aggressive, 'Tiny Yapper' is always right out at the end of his leash and barks furiously at the slightest provocation. His constant high pitched yips can be very annoying, but because of his diminutive stature and limited strength Tiny Yapper poses no real threat to other posters.
