I remember this site, actually. There was a thread about it a year or two ago. I think it's been lost in cyberspace now.

Although sometimes a male, Crybaby is usually a female, and often a close ally of Innocence Abused. When teased or attacked Crybaby will pitch a loud public temper tantrum, holding her breath and kicking her feet. If that defense fails she will run to Nanny for comfort.

Toven in the "real" world.

Rat prefers to attack with private messages rather than out in the open. CAUTION : If a Warrior starts to get the better of the fight he will suddenly post out of context excerpts of his opponent's messages to the list. When taken to task for betraying private correspondence he will insist that he did it because he was being harassed or that his adversary poses a threat to other, more vulnerable Warriors, such as Innocence Abused.

Coincidentially enough, there was a poster named WhiteRat who did this to me, though never brought up our arguments in threads. He harassed me for a couple of weeks about being a Chiefs fan.

Lmao!!

Though annoying and often disruptive, Fanboy is a relatively harmless Warrior because his interests and knowledge are strictly limited a single obsession. He's fixated on a particular video game, a celebrity, a television show, a sports team, – almost anything, really. Fanboy’s compulsion makes him very easy to identify, but it also arms him with supernatural tenacity. The most benign criticism of his beloved immediately provokes a cascade of virulent abuse. Once alerted to Fanboy's sensitivities Evil Clown, Troller and Jerk will goad himmercilessly. CAUTION: ANYONE can become a Fanboy, but the warning signs of an emerging Fanboy are subtle and easily overlooked. For example, are you a little hasty to defend Linux?

THIS is JAL.

Never really associated Fanboy with an actress. But it is fitting.

I wonder if Stalker is a choice?

Ferrous Cranus is utterly impervious to reason, persuasion and new ideas, and when engaged in battle he will not yield an inch in his position regardless of its hopelessness. Though his thrusts are decisively repulsed, his arguments crushed in every detail and his defenses demolished beyond repair he will remount the same attack again and again with only the slightest variation in tactics. Sometimes out of pure frustration Philosopher will try to explain to him the failed logistics of his situation, or Therapist will attempt to penetrate the psychological origins of his obduracy, but, ever unfathomable, Ferrous Cranus cannot be moved.

Celldog again, maybe Jonty.

 

[Tsunulia]

I don't know if any of those names describe me

 

[Abaddon]

Let me push you down the stairs.

Dinner and dancing first. We'll make a day of it.

So what's the archetype of the poster would say "old!" to this thread subject?

Or the poster who would point out that "archetype" is misspelled in the title?

'Cause I guess I'm both of those.

Awesome I think this is me:

[Socrates]

Not exactly sure which of those names would best describe me; if any.

 

[Mixairian]

There is something for everybody and 3-4 for some.

 

[LEX]

I see myself as these four combined...

Evil Clown
His greatest thrill is to taunt and humiliate weaker or more plodding Warriors with his snappy ripostes. Not a particularly powerful Warrior, Evil Clown will attempt to avoid defeat by accusing his attacker of having no sense of humor.

Acne
Acne constantly whines about how, like... his life and everything really sucks and stuff.

Jekyll and Hyde
As a forum participant Jekyll and Hyde always plays by the rules and is consistently cordial and helpful – a model netizen, until one day he comes completely uncorked and lashes out without warning.

Lonely Guy
Lonely Guy doesn't get out much, and often his social isolation can drive him to do battle just for the human contact. Nonetheless, Lonely Guy can be very fierce. Remember, he has nothing better to do than stew over real or imagined insults.
