Inspired by [this current thread](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=356649) and blantently copied from [this old thread](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=275245).

As **Bruce\_Daddy** put it in his thread, “Half game, half vanity wank”. I’m going to expand on his options, however. Take a look at the last poster to this thread. What do you know about them?

A) Not a damn thing. Is that a guest? No, wait…it says “charter member” under their name. Huh…sorry, no recognition whatsoever.  
B) Ummm…I _think_ I’ve seen this poster before, but I could be confusing them with a similarly-named poster. Really couldn’t say for sure, though.  
C) Yeah, I recognize the name, but couldn’t tell you much about them.  
D) Oh, sure…good 'ol \<poster\> (or, if you prefer, “that dickweed \<poster\>”). They like to talk about \<subject A\> and \<subject B\>. I really \<like/can’t fricking stand\> them, and find them very \<amusing/much in need of a ball peen hammer to the shins\>.  
E) Oooo! One of my favorite posters! I always click on threads and pay extra attention to their posts.  
F) Their real name is \<whatever\>, they live in \<whatever\> town, and I have naked photos of the two of us together.

For **Hal Briston** , I’m not gonna say “F,” because I’d have to explain how we got the garter belt on the sheep – so I’ll say “E.” 😉

What do I know about **Hal Briston**?

C & D

Unless I’m very mistaken, Hal is fairly well respected, and usually has something pertinent to add to any thread  
Then again, he’s been known to spout nonsense - haven’t we all?  
And he likes sheep

Meanwhile, while coding this - \*\*Happy Lendervedder \*\* posted.

I know very little about him (her?), but I’ve seen his (her?) posts in a lot of threads.

(damn) Then \*\*Twickster \*\* chimes in  
She has a silly side and likes kitties

Ooops – a day late and a dollar short.

**Happy** – C.

**Pansy** – A, sorry. (Though with a post count like that, whaddya expect?)

**PapSett** –

Between C and D for me. I know you like animals, and you have been having a bit of a rough patch lately. You seem like a nice person!

**Electronic Chaos** gets an “A” from me, I’m sorry to say. With that many posts I’m surprised the name doesn’t ring a bell.

C for **Revenant Threshold** , but I’ve been reading more of her (his?) posts lately, and they usually seem to have something to offer.

In a good way, that is.

**ronincyberpunk** definitely gets a C. The name is very memorable. The fact that I remember very little about her (his?) posts says more about my advancing age that her (him?) as a poster. Some days, I feel like I’d give _me_ a C.

\*\*ronincyberpunk \*\* - C, borderline D, but I just don’t have enough to fill in those blanks. I like this poster, though, so the blanks aren’t _bad_ things.

D. **norinew** was just talking about never being noticed in another thread. I just did so there you go.

Between D and E for both **Shag** and **Anastasaeon**. Both are rather prolific and recognizable to me.
