    Since PFF seems to think that everyone has the same posting style, isn't it true that everyone posts differently? Some people use things that make it obvious who is posting it. I know I overuse the "..." thing, and some people post in rows and skip lines etc. Do you think everyone else has their own style?

    Another thing I notice is that some people use like full sentences, while others may abbreviate and use shortened versions of things.

    I post everything from one-liners, to short paragraphs, to essays.I post seriously, offensively, defensively, and humorously.I post with intelligence, and idiocy.I basically post in every style possible. I think so atleast [​IMG]

    I always use the .... thing when I am analyzing things in games, or comparing players.

    some of my posting habits:I believe I use the :eyeroll: in pretty much every single post, sometimes following it with the :HAHAHA: if I don't trust people will be able to tell me a comment is sarcasm.I post like a total Warriors homer in the NBA forums but am among the non-biased intelligentsia outside the NBA forums.I don't know if anybody picks up on this, but I use a lot of quotes that don't have names in them; in other words I copy and past people's text and then click quote on the fast reply thing because that way I can keep the page open.I edit nearly every post I make at least once to make sure nothing I say is misconstrued.I almost never make typos or malapropisms because I feel inclined to correct that sort of thing.

    I just made a thread like this a couple weeks ago....I wonder if TheLegacy and PFF both agree on all members having the same posting style.

    My posting style consists of:-Long essay format.-Reiteration of same point about 10x in the same post.-The will to break your will.-Dozens of stats, useful or not.That's about it really.

    I don't really have one, I just usually use proper grammar instead of "I dont rely have 1 I uz propr grmr sted of". That was a bit of a stretch, but you get the point. [​IMG]

    I like to go in-depth with most of my posts. Every now and then I'll make some quick jokes, but the real reason I'm here is to talk basketball with other knowledgeable fans of the game. I like going in-depth and give my full opinion.

    Well, I'm not so sure. But I'll tell you this: The Legacy and PFF sure do have the same style. [​IMG]

    I'm all over the place. I really don't have a consistent posting style.
