I've recently developed this weird irrational hatred for users who end their posts with their nicknames. I don't even understand it. It's like me and my intuition having a conversation:

Intuition: hey, see that guy with his nickname at the end of the post? Hate him.
Me: but... why?? He hasn't done anything wrong (or so it seems).
Intuition: shut up and trust me
Me: ok, if you say so...

So can anyone explain it to me? In case you've forgotten how it feels like, here we go:

For some reason, I hate you right this very moment.

Also, I think it's less required these days, except for work/formal electronic exchanges. In a forum it's totally silly. I think the last time I did it on a normal basis I was using 2400 kbps modems to connect to Renegade system BBSes.

Yes, I email sponsors... to thank them. Don't post drunk, kids. My king, what has become of you?

There used to be a guy on Usenet who STARTED every post with his name, and would do it multiple times if quotes were broken up. Typical post would be:

Alex:

blah blah

[quoted text]

Alex:

But blah blah blah.

Could be worse.

You need to get together with this guy and talk it out.

Bottled-up hatred can't be good for you in the long term.

I agree with you, but don't you think it's annoying when people get your name wrong on forums? What do you think of that, The_Templar?

Remeber there was a guy few years ago who would end his posts with a photoshopped image of his nick filled with lens flare effects?

It lasted for 2 or 3 posts only, though.
