Posts a quick "I agree" because I'm one of those posters who posts in practically every thread. Of course, I'm upset that the original poster isn't talking about a book I don't have because then I could post something like, "I agree. Even though I don't have the book that seems to be right."

I then leave the thread with people marvelling at how I have managed to achieve such an extraordinarily high post count without ever actually saying much of substance.

Points out how whatever the original post was about, it would be better if it used whatever new idea I'm pimping this week.

Makes the exact same point as Jdvn1 using the same Gygax quote.
Complains that no one ever reads the entire thread, eventhough is guilty of the same thing.

Makes useless, neutral comment that seems really witty at 2 o'clock in the morning, smirking to myself about how goddamn clever I am.

Decides to derail the thread by still commenting on the original topic but tossing in analogies to popular culture, interjecting insults about all post-1977 Star Wars films, everything ever done by Joss Whedon and concludes with a statement that the original Battlestar Galactica and even Galactica 1980 are far better than the current series. Sits back and waits for the Fan Boys to react.

Makes lame joke to play it off, desperately seeking hong's approval, and thus demonstrating what a sad excuse for an amorphous internet entity I really am.

The threadjack the Fan Boy is waiting for.

Multi-page, multi-tiered threat that WILL actually be presented in court to clinch that Restraining Order.

The rant spills over into an incoherent statements about Firefily, and that Joss Whedon is the single greatest human being EVAR, but ends abrubptly because that screeching harpy of a Mother wanted to go out to dinner at a NICE Skippers... The one down the street just wasn't the same since the Health Department closed it down that one time.

I get offended that the thread has been derailed and I report the post to the moderators. I'm still upset that the moderators haven't acted on my previous report of a post so I head over to www.rpg.net and start slagging off about ENWorlders.

But first I do a quick post asking for the thread to come back on topic.

Makes connections between Star Wars and ancient oriental cultures.
