> [@Dag\_Otto](#): > > Eh, you’re ok, but that sun jester dude was better. Actually, the sun jester was only ok, and you are a little bit worse than him, so maybe calling you ok is a bit generous. But that guy is gone so there’s no point in continuing on with that comparison. Um, now where was I? Oh, yeah, you are ok I guess. daaaaaaaaaaaaammmn ---

> [@DSeid](#): > > Mostly it’s the _characters_ who stand out, and more commonly not for strongly positive reasons. Alternatively some posters are “known” for specific areas of expertise or interest. And some for the personal stories/sagas they have shared. > > Looking over some of your posting history **RitterSport** you are a solid reasonable intelligent poster making reasonable contributions, expressing reasonable opinions, and asking intelligent questions. You don’t seem to have any _specific_ area that you have extremely strong special interests in or opinions about, just an overall solid contributor. Part of the muscle and essential organs of this community but not the pimple on the nose that gets noticed so much … but also not the infectious laugh. To make a High School theater analogy - more efficient and competent stage crew than lead. > > I only hope I can be characterized as well! Man, I love this description! You’re right, though – certain people stand out in a positive or negative way, or because they know everything about certain things ( **Chronos** , **Stranger on a Train** , **Colibri** , to name a few standout experts), but I really do take a middle road. I didn’t really realize it before. I know a fair amount about certain subjects, but I’ll usually make a single contribution and that’s it. I try to keep things civil, I guess. I think I’ve only started a few Pit threads and they usually die off. I have a positive impression of you, but I can’t point my figure exactly at why. I’ll leave it to someone with your descriptive flair to really do you justice. ---

> [@RitterSport](#): > > Man, you even get the German versions. I’m not exactly sure what version we get around here. I see them all the time at the Polish places, but I assume they’re the American versions. (And I’m pretty sure I’ve seen them at the Targets here, too.) But I first encountered Ritter Sports from living in Hungary in the late 90s and early 00s, where the slogan on the back was “Quadratisch. Praktisch. Gut.” And that slogan has stayed with me since. As for your OP, I certainly know your name as a poster, but I’ve never associated it with anything negative. I tend to mostly hang out in CS and GQ and avoid GD, Elections, and the Pit for the most part. Not exclusively, but I don’t recall you pinging my radar as “who the fuck is that jagoff?” and there definitely is a list of those people on my radar. So you must by okay. 🙂 ---

Wait, you are **Ritter Sport** again? Not **Ritter Sport** still? And you are German chocolate, like the cake? So confused. So very confused. I could do without the nuts in the frosting, though. On that point I’m pretty clear. Of course, if you are a guy then nuts are standard equipment. I get that. No way to tell from your name. Still, I don’t have to like them. The nuts, that is. I do like mine though. Very much. What was the question again? ---

> [@Inigo\_Montoya](#): > > I avoid making threads like this because I don’t dig the ensuing denigration, but I often wonder if I bug more people than I tickle around here. It would be useful if people could just give honest feedback rather than exploit the opportunity to eviscerate someone displaying a bit of vulnerability. You I know, you are mostly harmless and often entertaining. But I do love the movie your name is from. ---
