And also increases his tiny post count by yet one more.
Complains about Thread Necromancy, eventhough knows this post bumps the thread, making it more likely to be posted to.

Makes a comment about a post on page 1 without having read the rest of the thread...thus missing the particular post having been thoroughly refuted at the bottom of page 2, and arousing the snarky ire of the refuter.

EDIT: Apologizes for missing the post on page 2, citing exhaustion as an excuse for inatentiveness. (Insert appropriate smileys here.)

Makes another post to this thread in order to get postcount up to an even 3000! Poster delusionally thinks that he is catching up with Crothian.

Makes an observation about this post in reference to Paladins, and then makes some ill-informed and inciteful claims about what the Paladin really should be, in light of the obvious truth of my opinion on Lawful Good.

Quickly drops in to leave a 2-word reply which will undoubtedly be misinterpreted as passive aggressive.

Complains about the passive-aggressive nature of the previous post.

Suggests another system would model passive-agressive behavior more accurately than D&D.

Chimes in with a post talking about how there aren't enough D&D players as-is, and that we should be hoarding each one like dwarves horde gold. Asks previois post "what's your problem ?"

Pops in and notes that apparently these types of threads are allowed in General Discussion once again. Points out that this was originally my schtick.

Leaves thread.

Tries to prove that:
a.) Meta-Trolls are a rip-off of Megatron from "Transformers" and
b.) that only the Timecube can solve OP's problems with the game system...

Adds another irrelevant post just to pimp a story hour, only forgetting to include link to said story hour.

Posts a polite reply subtly implying that anyone who misinterpreted his previous post as passive aggresssive must clearly be mentally deficient.

Offers to explain it more slowly.

Adds smilies throughout.
