1. Polls

2. debate topics (political, religious, moral, etc.)

3. Update topics

4. Humor topics

5. Long pointless topics

6. Flame wars

7. Technical topics

8. Others

Your mother's a *****. You like to jack off dogs. That's right, you heard me. You like to grab that dog by the bone and rub it like a ski pole. Your dad? Gay. Your priest? Straight. **** off and let me post. It's not true, it's all in good fun. Now go away.

1. Polls

Usually, more so if I can be one of the first few to reply.

2. debate topics (political, religious, moral, etc.)

Almost never, I don't care much for politics. I will ocasionally throw in a negative opinion about Catholics if I can though.

3. Update topics

Never, stoped reading them a while ago.

4. Humor topics

What so I can be the 50th ******* person to say "OMG that was a funny link" I already read the joke, why the **** would I care enough to bump it so others can?

5. Long pointless topics

Those almost always fall under category 2.

6. Flame wars

Nah, see above answer.

7. Technical topics

I can answer basic questions, but belive it or not I really don't know that much about computers, no really.

8. Others

Others as in Joke of the Day (Which really dosent fall under humor at all, as I understand it humorus things have to be funny) or the 50th person to post a WTF Comic link, or some dumb **** who stumbled over from the EQ forum who "REALLY NEEDS TO KNOW HOW TO MAKE CASH AT LEVEL 43", or the cannotlinkto spam, or the ******** trolls who want you to smell their finger. Why would I respond to them?

I hereby declare the methodology behind this study fundamentally flawed. Surely only those who normally participate in polls will participate?

No method to my posting, really. I go by the title. If it looks interesting, I'll read at least some of it. And maybe comment.

Do you have a fan club, if so, where do I sign up?

As you once told me long ago, (and most likely regretfully so), "Upon consideration, I have found you to be funny, congratulations, that doesn't happen very often"

I read anything that strikes me as interesting, or sometimes, anything that will waste 10 minutes. My level of participation is, of course, random stupid one-liners and inane comments. I'm beginning to feel like katie Smiley: frown

I read everything, but I only participate in anything that looks interesting. #2 and #6 are normally the most fun.

I will almost always participate in a thread that has my name in the title whether it be praise or slander.

I participate and create polls.

I do the flame war thing, but seldom do politics even though I am an extremely political person.

Humor is good, but there has been little of it here as of late.
