Here's a thought. What do you think it is that attracts certain people to forums, and do you think we could find a link in certain characteristics that most forum-goers (is there a proper word for us people?!!) have, like we can all be a bit argumentative at times, all enjoy talking, all enjoy the English language, therefore, writing, etc. Any certain personality traits?

I started to think about this because most people I know say they don't go on forums. Now they could all be lying, because they're scared I might ask which one and then go on and discover all their secrets, or because they might think it's sad. But I mean I'm interested to know what percentage of people go on forums, and if we are a certain 'type' of person in any respects.

I'm expecting lots of abuse now, with comments like 'you can't categorise people into one type, etc.' but that's not what I mean, just what the common factors are between us. Something someone said about there being a lot of insomniacs on forums got me thinking.
