    Folks

    I've been around forums for about ten years. I think I've seen most if not all of it.

    First we have the obfuscator or who tries to make you think he has something, but it is hidden in riddles, homilies, parables and what not. Actually, he has nothing. What he is trying to do is this: He has an idea but he can't make it work. If he convinces you it does work, you will bust your buns trying to figure out how. Suppose you do. You report back to him with the answer he could not find.

    Then there's the bloviator who pumps his system to point you wonder why he is not traveling the world, winning in all those beautiful casinos we peasants can only Google but never visit.

    Then there's the hinter who has the key to Ft. Knox, but just can't spill it outright. You must follow his hints and work, work, work and suddenly, like the Buddha, enlightenment will come. You will literally glow with knowledge until people ask if you're a god. (The hinter also is described in paragraph one.)

    Let's not forget the scammer. He sucks you in with enough information, maybe even payout records, to make you think he really has IT. But then he wants you to "go private" where he asks you for tons of money up front. The he sells you a system which will not work because YOU are not quite doing it right. He will tell you others are making a ton from playing his system, but you are just too dense to get it. Truth is, he couldn't win continuously with his system to have his soul from hell. But he doesn't have to; he has your money!

    I enjoy the people who say, "Hey, I've got an idea!" and then we go to work on his idea. Will it fail? Sure. They all do. But can we work together, get to know each other a little and have some fun?

    "..............that is the question."

    So what percentage of the membership do you reckon fall in the 4 category-types that you have just so eloquently described?

    BTW, my first response to this thread was moved to off-topic graveyard, here -

    Aw, geez, I'd hate to call a percentage. But I would encourage everyone and anyone to post their category.

    I liked your response!
