That was so difficult to type I kept forgetting to put the capitals at the start!

Technically speaking, the FORUM is a Capitalist... because it converts posts written in allcaps into that form.

So it's converting Headliners and The Great Unlocked into Capitalists instead.

Headliner: One who feels everything must be shouted to be heard - EXTRA! EXTRA! READ ALL ABOUT IT! MY CORNSNAKE WON'T EAT LOL!

The Great Unlocked: Obviously their keyboard must be missing one vital key. Surely they didn't mean to type the WHOLE post that way.... Usually starts like: mY CORNSNAKE WON'T EAT WHAT DO i DO?

this one is so true!

boosterposter...for those who start a thread with "what do you think of my hair/dress/tattoo/lipstick/fancy dress costume"....ad infinitum.
Then they sit back and wait for the "oooos and aaaahs" and the "wow you look so fit/sexy/gorgeous" etc answers that give them an ego boost.

Premature Bumpulator - The person who replies to a thread with 'stunning ******, free bump for you' when the thread is still at the top and doesn't need bumping. This one being an absolute classic http://www.reptileforums.co.uk/other...boys-good.html
Look at the time of the first post and then the second post - the free bump.

Can't Read Won't Read - The one who replies to a thread repeating exactly what was said hours / days / weeks earlier but couldn't be arsed reading the thread.

How about Agent Provocateur - One who winds up other people on behalf of another person because they think they are their friend, and ends up getting them both banned or flamed to bits?

Loving this thread... many times have followed controversial threads on here and have actually thought many of the things termed above regarding some of the posters... can even see myself in a few of them!
