A lot of names just now popping up with very low post counts turn out to have ostensibly joined long ago.

Anyway, when in doubt, I find MIRT is a good resource.

Posters who rack up giant post counts in short amounts of time...they’re here. Trolls are embedded here.

They are fooling many.

The joke’s on them though; their hero is a loser.

For some reason, I'm more wary of the "overwhelmers" than the "sit and pickers". Should be the other way around because the discreet aren't as obvious.
