Basically, who are the people that you'll read one of their topics, pretty much regardless of the topic? And, in reverse, whose are the topics you'll avoid?

Always read:

Meka - Funniest guy on here, IMHO
Grix - Always an interesting read
Goatboy - Very funny, and great to argue with.
Mr Nice Guy - When he used to post regularly, intriguing topics
Mr.Happy - Best film opinion to be found here (excluding Coen Brothers)
Mystique - Don't know what it is, but the majority of her postsmake me laugh. A lot. Maybe it's the mention of monkey a lot.

Never read:

There's not many I never read. I hardly ever read MoJoJoJo's, because if I reply I get into a senseless argument about how Mojoman thought I was the cause of WW2 or something and Dringo's don't interest me much. That's about it.

Your turn. Go flatter/annoy someone.

It's easy to come across like you think you're all that on a computer though, you should see the pics of him, i've not yet met someone who looks like they should be playing Warhammer with an ego the size of Stryke's.

Some people would say, it's strange who gets brave with a Computer in front of them...

For Christs sake, when are you retards going to realise that word count doesn't mean squat?

I don't usually find Stryke's posts very interesting,

I'll choose to ignore that, seeing as you told me it was.

I'm hurt.

I find that i just take a quick look at every post the reple if it looks good! If only that held true of people on my posts, it seems that even posts with no basis on gaming still get more replied then mine!

I don't decide whose posts I am going to read by their username. Infact, I don't make any decidsions about a topic depending on the username.

I do my best to read as many topics as I possibly can, but when I'm short for time, I generally choose the topics who's titles interest me. It's usually titles that mention something I'm interested in, or look strange and catch my eye that cause me to open a cetain topic. Just wondering, maybe some of the rest of you should look at it this way too.

Don't judge by username, judge by the title.

If the title says "Vote for your favourite console", you're more likely to ignore it, I norally do.

However, if it said "The wierd and wonderful winner" or something like that to symbolise a console wars post, you're likely to get intrigued and have a look. Granted, you're no going to find a decent topic every time. But there's no guarantee that you'll be readig a decent topic if you open a post like this one by Stryke (hell, it looks like an excuse to boost his word count). I don't usually find Stryke's posts very interesting, that's my opinino, and this topic I have found to be of little interest to me. Most the replies are the same "Why aren't I on your list" or "here's my list of people i ignore"
