ThatsPants Posted July 13, 2018 Share Posted July 13, 2018 So, I was bored and decided to try and categorise the type of people I have noticed during my time of lurking on the forum. This is purely for fun so don't take anything too to heart. If I have missed any please write them below -The Quiet Intellectuals : Those who are very knowledgeable in most aspects of SL or specialise in a particular subject. They are usually quiet and seek no drama or conflict and often help people purely out of the kindness of their own heart and seek no thanks or gratitude for their actions. -The Wannabe Intellectuals : Those who often try to use as big a word as they can find and as often as they can in the hopes of convincing others they are privy to a more superior intelligence than most. They more often than not attempt to use sarcasm and cynicism as a way to berate and put down others in some desperate attempt to be seen as something better than they are. They often also make up their own words for topics and subjects in the hopes that it makes them seem somehow unique and special on the forum. They feed users false or partially correct information as fact and generally act like an all round a-hole. -The Drama Lamas : These are the drama seekers. The gossipers. The stirrers of the proverbial poop. They seek out threads or create them for no other purpose than to gossip and create further issue where there need be none. They are the ones who slander, smear and besmirch others for the purposes of providing themselves some kind of entertainment in their otherwise dull and boring existence. Often found to be obsessed with websites such as SL Secrets and can not be trusted at all with any kind of personal information as they will seek to use it in a way that furthers their own social gossip like standing. -The Entitled Kids : Usually found whining consistently about changes the lindens have made to some aspect of Second Life that somehow affect them in ways that it does no one else. They are often found creating and blowing up threads, raging at the lindens and generally shouting about how unfair it is to them and them alone that these changes have occurred. They are usually the type that are not satisfied regardless of what the change may be. Their favourite phrase is usually 'well linden labs you have lost my business I'm out..' acting as if the measly pittance they spend on SL each year will be noticed in the grand scheme of things. You may also find them complaining about 'unfair' bans where they are usually at fault but in denial..... or in fact any subject where they they feel they have been heinously wronged as if their very soul has been torn asunder and yet more often than not are totally in the wrong and deserving of said punishment. -The Interesting Trolls : The wittier of the troll category who have at least some understand of comedic word use and need not to swear or insult in order to get someone riled up. Those who can make a post seem 100% earnest yet manage to trigger multiple people resulting in a true forum thread meltdown. -The Standard Trolls : Often found using derogatory terms more often relating to homophobic, transphobic or racist slurs while laughing to their mates on voice chat about how “edgy” they are being and how they will “troll them good”. Usually deemed to be around 14 years old or older with an equal mentality to a 14 year old and often found perusing sites such as 4chan and playing Minecraft or Fortnite. They usually claim to have once been in The Patriotic Nigras or know a dude who was who can totally "get your ip". -The Lindens : Our lords...our masters...the true god of old....we pray 'Heavenly lindens, bless us this day and guide us on our true path. We thank you for all you have done and all you will continue to do. Bestow upon us the blessing of the great one Oz and the supreme ruler Ebbe and may they deliver us into a new age of virtual innovation...for in the lindens we trust....'..... found to be merciful to some and merciless to others, they are the true gods of the world we inhabit. Some say that meeting a linden is like meeting the architect of the universe itself. Those who have studied the lindens closely make mention of the 'linden hive mind', controlled by a single AI consciousness known only as E.B.B.E they claim that the L does not really stand for Linden but in fact Legion....for they are many.... (srs guys don't ban me I love you all, il pay my tithings next week I swear...) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cindy Evanier Posted July 13, 2018 Share Posted July 13, 2018 You forgot my category - tries her best to help but with blonde moments. Can revert to sarcasm with snowflakes and likes a good laugh when people start to rant or when they don't get their own way or don't get people rushing to agree with their rant. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
