I don't have favorites, but I definitely have those I dread. They include people who:
-Reply to anything with 'lol' or the like and nothing else--this is not adding to the conversation and it makes you look like a fourteen-year-old girl.
-People who don't try to use proper grammar and spelling. I don't mind when someone has a lot of errors as long as they are trying. We get so many people who claim to have educations posting unintelligible garbage that it is ridiculous.

isn't replying with just an lol impossible. I thought you had to post at least a 10 character post.
Gotta give a shoutout to Black Balled, Mosconiac, cmbwsu, Mr. Wilson, and Blue Hog Rider (and myself) probably a couple of others, purely from the funny/gift thread for constant posts and laughs I have gotten there.
I like Black-Balled. You never know what he is going to say next.

I don't have favorites, but I definitely have those I dread. They include people who:
-Hijack threads to say 'hi' to someone or ask if their friend is around and post photos nobody cares about--us a PM or start a new thread.
-Reply to anything with 'lol' or the like and nothing else--this is not adding to the conversation and it makes you look like a fourteen-year-old girl.
-People who don't try to use proper grammar and spelling. I don't mind when someone has a lot of errors as long as they are trying. We get so many people who claim to have educations posting unintelligible garbage that it is ridiculous.
-People who feel like they need to out Mr. Stroud every couple of weeks.
The rest of you are great, thanks for making this a fun forum.

Sometimes I will see the person's name as the last person to post to a thread, and no matter what the topic of the thread is, I click it to see what this person has to say. :grin-square:
This logic, however, works both ways. When I read a train wreck or flame thread, there are times, I must admit, that I click on that thread, no matter who's posting in it, to find out what twists and turns the thread is taking. The alleged "Samoan accompanying Scott Frost to a pool room" thread comes to mind.![]()
There are certain members, though, I consume every single word they write, because I know beforehand it's going to be a good read, even if I don't agree with them.
Any post written by Jerry Forsyth, AzHousePro, or Mr. Wilson, I automatically click it to find out what's going on. :angel2:
Wow...88%...either I am delusional or you are.
Thanks for the ringing endorsement. Please put me on 'ignore' since I offend thee so badly.
Actually, 80% of the time I don't know what he's saying in his posts!! One of my favs nonetheless.
JAM, Jay Helfert, JBarton, JCIN, JoeyInCali, JoeT <-----hmmm I wonder if I can find any more good posters that start with "J"??
Darn! Found a few who don't start with "J"!!
Cueman, qbilder, RealKingCobra, Tom Hay, TATE
I always liked PJ's comments, he just seemed to be misunderstood sometimes.
You're right.
It's ironic though ...I mean that he wrote with such clarity and yet was so often misunderstood.
West Point said:I always made a point to read everything he wrote, though!
PJ's problem was that he wasn't wrong (he's actually pretty knowledgeable), just not 100% right and refused to debate. He would attack a strawman (something out of context a little or not what was meant by the poster) and hang on like a pitbull. Then he'd get mad...which just isn't fun for anyone and doesn't advance the discussion. I always made a point to read everything he wrote, though!
