Whenever you contribute to a thread that goes for more than 20 posts, who is most liley to have responded to the same thread? Who can you count on adding to the same thread(s) you do? If you could assemble the Dopers who gravitate toward the same topic(s) you do, what would be a good Gang Name (or even Band Name) for your group? ---

Maybe the title’s typo will draw some replies: it’s supposed to say “all is” and not “al lis.” But you probably already figured that out. ---

There’s the Lost Dopers. As in the TV show, not just a bunch of us who are unsure where we are… We’re on vacation till the new season starts, but we’ll all be back for some fun discussions when the season starts up. ---

It would be whoever the other diehard bowling Dopers are, but I haven’t found them yet. I assume we would be named The Pinworms. 😃 ---

We’re pathetic, I know … There’s a few construction Dopers I see from time to time. **Danceswithcats** is the only one whose name comes readily to mind, but if I did a search, I would likely see the same names over and over offering helpful hints and professional insights.

I have two ex boyfriends who are Dopers. I didn’t meet them on the Dope - they came here after we’d been dating (er, not all of us at the same time). They seem to be likely to post in threads I start. We’re not a gang, per-se. More like 3 people sitting back-to-back with shotguns. grrr. People I have NOT dated but talk to occasionally are **ultrafilter** and **Lobsang**. They don’t know they’re in my gang of Boys Who Are Roughly The Same Age As ZipperJJ 🙂 ---

I seem to end up in a lot of cat-related threads. I’d call my “gang” **Crazy Cat Ladies** , except for the fact that this would be confused with the member whose username is **CrazyCatLady**. So how 'bout **Kooky Kitty Kuddlers**? Ecch. Too kutesy-poo. **Passionate Pussycat People**? Nah, sounds too much like a porn flick. Guess I’ll go with **Fanatical Feline Fanciers**. ---

I used to be in a Doper gang. But, like all the best gangs, we sort of drifted apart once fame and fortune kicked in. [The Doper Brat Pack](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=281539&highlight=Brat+Pack) ---

Hmm. I wouldn’t call it a gang per se, but start a thread about the new Battlestar Galactica show and I’ll probably show up. The first other two names that come to mind would be **Cervaise** and **carnivorousplant** , but I could add quite a few more. ---

I’m not in a gang - too new. Also, not enough human disassemblers on the Dope… I give a shout out to **QtM** a lot though; maybe he’ll let me be in his gang. There are too many dopers of whom I am in awe (e.g. **Eve** ) whose gang I couldn’t be described as being in. (Somebody edit that sentence) **LOUNE** and I followed eachother around a thread until one of us had to shout “Mo-o-o-om!!!”, but it was a one-night kind of thing. I’m always glad to see **Twickster** show up in a thread. But, then, who isn’t? ---

I’m a big fan of all things Korean, so I often see **HazelnutCoffee** , **Bear\_Nenno** , and **Monty** in the same threads. Our Gang Name? _Joe Sun And The Kimchee Warriors_, maybe, but that sounds more like a lousy wedding band than a gang. _The Flying Mandu_? Nahh, too much like a trapeze family. Now I’m gonna be thinking about _this_ all day . . . grumble grumble ---
