Types of on-line personalities

October 4th, 2008 by Erich Vieth

Have you ever been annoyed by an on-line personality?    Perhaps this is a rhetorical question for you.  Regardless, Mike Reed of Flame Warriors has spent a lot of time studying the types of people who hang around and often annoy the rest of us.   These personality types include the following (and many more):  ALLCAPS, Bliss Nanny, Evil Clown, Filibuster, Grenade, Lonely Guy, Deacon, Troller and Xenophobe.

    Most people play a combination of many of these roles. Only the few that fall into only one sterotype are problematic.
