I love this. Someone sent me the link, and I have treasured it - not least because almost all of us fall into one of its categories at one time or another.

Phil's Field Guide To Trolls

It's about trolls who inhabit firearms forums, but there are pearls of wisdom here for all interests. I particularly like "The Bruce" and "The KungFool".

/\ Is a troll of an entirely different nature then those outlined in Reg's linked guide.

Mimi habitually goes around to other forums and spreads goodwill.

She's ... evil, I tell ya. :o|

"The Limey. Limeys are, as the name suggests, British. It is very important to them that you know they are British. More importantly, it is very important to them that you understand just how obnoxiously British they are. Limeys are usually hoplophobes and prone to pontificating from ignorance (regardless of subject)."

Oh how I love being British.

But I think I need to google the definition of hoplophobe.

P.S. After reading the definition of hoplophobe, it just makes sense. If more people were scared of weapons they wouldn't run at people holding pointy things really now would they =D

I wish I was a glow worm, a glow worm's never glum. How can you be gloomy when the sun shines out your bum? *runs off into distance giggling*

If you hop whilst holding a pointy thing you are just asking for trouble IMO.
