I’ve seen a few pit threads, that, as usual, get pretty nasty quick. and then there’s a the depressed dopers, who just need someone to listen and talk to. I came across [http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=169137](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=169137), where **Guinastasia** was especically nice to **Payne N. Diaz**. At the end she said: > [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by Guinastasia \* > \*\*Don’t forget the little things. It’s the little things you have to focus on. The little things that get you through the day. \*\* And considering she’s been dealing with no Paxil, well, I just wanted to say she’s a great person and very understanding and sympathetic 🙂 … and this is my “little thing” contribution that will hopefully put a smile on her face. On that note, I wanted to create a thread to say something nice about a fellow doper. The twist is that you have to say something about the last person mentioned, then pick someone else you think is deserving of positive attention. So, let’s start it with a post about Esprix… anyone? 😃 Then you name someone for the next poster to talk about. /Shadez ---

Esprix has style, wit, intelligence and enthusiasm. Someday I hope to meet Esprix at a So. Cal. DopeFest. Next topic - Shayna and/or Spiny Norman (who are a beautiful couple, as seen in the LA TarDope pics) ---

**Cerowyn** is an extremely generous and entertaining host, and is just generally fun as hell to go out drinking with. He also has an impressive knowledge of rap music. ---

I like **Aslan2**. He seems nice. And **DanielWithrow** makes very intelligent comments. **Kn\*ckers** gave me cookies. That was sweet. And- naturally- IMHO, **d\_redguy** r0x0rz! 😉 (Sorry about the leet-speak. He’ll like it, though.) ---

Despite his controversial (and occasionally offensive) views, **december** is invariably polite, and his poetry is often amusing. ---

Both **Fenris** and **Eutychus** enjoy Disney films. [Not the same ones](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?threadid=168929&perpage=50&pagenumber=1), alas. 😃 And **Francesca** is by far the best _Mornington Crescent_ player on the boards. ---

**Scylla** has written some things that have made me want to laugh and cry at the same time. **Omniscient and the rest of the -GRY Diplomacy gang** have been very polite and well mannered about my delays to the game early on. Except **garius**. Bastard. 😃 ---

Former Dopers count? One time I was whining about missing German candy; **tatertot** sent me a whole bunch! **scout1212** (hope I got the numbers right, I usually don’t use 'em) and **Scylla** always respond to my running posts and are pretty easy to count on to respond to others. **OpalCat** coordinated a Doper EQ guild and hooked up my ranger character with some sweet, sweet armor. Sadly, I haven’t gone back to the Druzzil Ro server in ferevah. Ditto on **Scylla** ’s writing abilitays. I forwarded the link to the blimp story to everyone I know. Oh man, I was cryin’ in my cube. And of course, **rubes** baby. He’s just sweet. Where the Hell has he been, anywayz? [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/say-something-nice-about-a-fellow-doper/161049.md?page=2)
