The Flame Warriors

Recommended Posts

I recently posted a thread detailing how to participate in a flame war. It was all meant in fun (it even occurred to me that sometimes it's necessary to follow the rules outlined in the post). Then Abramul posted a link to a site that detailed various "Flame Warriors". While it is comical, I got to thinking that some of the personalities listed are in fact REAL.

 

This forum has had it's fair share of unsavoury characters. If the rules of this forum weren't enforced, I believe it would be smoking battlefield riddled with the corpses of dozens of combatants. So I'd like you to take a moment and read the list of "flame warriors" and figure out which one you are (or perhaps you're a hybrid of several).

I'd like to thank Abramul for posting up the link to the site - I don't think I would have been able to tell that I was a palooka :rolleyes: ... and a ferrous cranus... and an ideologue. Anyway, feel free to post up who you think you are, or who you think someone could be. And try not to make it sound offensive - I don't want Dark0ne to close down this thread for getting out of line.

I think I'm the Artful Dodger, because it's tough for me to give up. I'm like a flame that's hard to extinguish.

I might also be the Godfather, because I never engage battles unless I have a reason. I often report abusive posts accurately, which probably makes PART an example of a Godfather within me. But, I'm officially a godfather when it comes to my site.

Palooka is the never-give-up type.

 

Godfather's most significant aspect is that of soft-spoken, shadowy, powerful leader. "Aiding in the enforcement of the rules" doesn't enter into it.
