"Am I the only one who doesn't like Call of Duty?"
Translation: "Stop liking what I don't like! Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah~!"
Further translation: "I think I'm unique and edgy because I made a thread identical to a similar 'I don't like Call of Duty' thread that was posted thirty seconds ago, which is identical to the thread posted thirty seconds before it."

That, and he has a personal vendetta against Sonic, plus the fact that he has made more threads than actual posts. Also, next time you see an eternalnothingness thread, look at the poll. I will bet my left nipple that the options will be "yes", "no", and "maybe".
I don't really think he is trying to troll, at least not consciously. He just has really weird opinions and behaviours, can't write without giving the reader whiplash to save his life, and posts the same damn threads he farted out over and over again.LarenzoAOG said:
Nothing personal against him I guess, but he really needs to add some discussion value.
The "Sick of topic X? Complain here!" threads. I am aware that this is one of them, and I just wanted to get that off my chest.
Well, since they've all merged into one in my mind, I'd like to say every "My opinion is different to your opinion and I cannot accept this!" thread. Some try to hide it with the similar "I have anecdotal evidence that you're all wankers!" threads, but they essentially devolve to the same thing and both are unnecessary and annoying.
The threads I particularly hate are the ones that say "I've had the worst day" because it usually is some 12 year old complaining that his/her Mom made them do dishes.
It makes me want to throw my laptop out a window, and then throw myself out after it just so I can rage at them

Shows that I've been around awhile.
Something about Do I like Icecream and it turned out it was about sex. Well...that's fantastic. Way to waste my time. At least I thought it'd be a little interesting to see what the favorite icecream was of the escapist

Currently: Skyrim threads.
Specifically, those that feature the OP ADMITTING that s/he knows they're making a redundant thread, but do so anyway.
The forum Fadlibs threads come next, though I think there's finally been something of a crackdown on those over the last month or two. At least I don't have to see two threads starting with the "The last ____ you ____ in a game is ____" on the front page anymore.
Any thread in which some idiot equates Used Games to Piracy; despite how many times that particular matter has been disproved (no, it isn't a matter of "belief/opinion/interpretation". If you equate the two of them, you are factually wrong. End of story).
And of course, there's MLP, but I've had a surprisingly high tolerance (or perhaps "apathy") for that thus far. Dunno why.

Just... unbelievable. You have to see it with your own 2 eyes to believe it exists.

Whilst not pointless on the grounds of one who made it, there was one thread to discuss the "Uwe Bowl of Videogames." Everyone practically used it to rail on the game studio they hated the most, making it pointless.
Then there was the "Is it ok that I don't care about Japan?" thread (right after the tsunami).

I saw one where a guy was complaining about something too stupid to even remember. i think it was about rats...
We?ll probably that one asking how often you got to the toilet.
But of the general threads that appear all the time...
All those ?last enemy you killed/where killed by? threads.
"am I the only one...?" Yes that is an expression but the thread usually have little discussion value.
Why do people hate/love X? the person usually doesn?t actually want to know, they just want to bash to the other party and can?t handle the idea that others might not have the same taste as them.
And ?WAAHH why won?t girls date me!?
