This thread is slowly becoming one of the most entertaining in my time here at ATRL. This is classic stuff. I'm totally changing my signature to link to this thread, although I do want to see more people other than fanoftalent and bea trying this.

I guess it is because you comment so much on this thread that I assume you did more.

I want to do more, I just don't want to do any without being confident in knowing something about the user.

I personally still think the whole fun of the thread is really knowing nothing of the user except their profile and previous posts and attempting to judge them off that. There is nothing wrong with being wrong as this is all in fun anyway. There are certain members here who I could accurately give you a profile of with about 90% accuracy because I know them well, but there is no fun in that. I don't know. Perhaps that is just my personal opinion.

@ Ashu: Thank you for your analysis. Much appreciated. I will certainly do you sooner than later.
@ Eli: I knew that Keriihill got it mostly right. And no, I wasn't around during the period when you felt "lost". It was a guess I made based on your personality. I am actually kinda the same way, but with a smaller circle of people I consider my friends. So it wasn't that hard to guess. I CAN NOT wait for you to do somebody's profile
@ Sunderland: You are great, buddy. I would love to do your profile, cause I've seen your posts around. But maybe someone will do you before me? and it will be great if you give a shot at profiling somebody first.
@ Yankee: I am honored that you like this thread. And I definitely want others to start profiling as well. You, yourself should do several others, your analysis is very logical.
Now up: Sticks
A very nice member on here is I am sure is very nice and friendly in real life as well. (sidenote: I feel like, people who act nice on here are really nice people in real life too, while overly bitchy members might be over-compensating on this forum and be mostly nice in real life, but act up here)...anyhow back to Sticks: He is the one who will make a stranger comfortable in the company of his friends and befriend someone who is new in school or in the community. He's a big dreamer, often living in fantasies, loves sci.fi probably. Has struggled with self-esteem, but his calmness attracts people, so he has a decent-sized circle of good friends. They goof around a lot.
He's NOT an only child (well it will be embarrassing if I'm wrong at this  ). He's not very selfish.
I can't really make out anything smart out of here, but when I saw his pic in PYP it struck me how sad his eyes looked, even though he was smiling and looked happy.
I don't have much else for now.
Next up for me is Ashuduff.

What I mean is that if I haven't read any posts by a user I have no impression of them.

I think this thread is one of the best I've ever seen, and thanks for the response, fanolftalent . We probably are very few people here posting, but in this case I think the less, the better. Description threads to members that are opened here usually end in stupid dramas and fights, that sometimes are funny but that's it, only funny, not serious arguments or statements or anything. And the majority of posts are usually nonsense. However, in this thread, I can see that people not only state their opinions, but they give their reasons too. That might be the thing I like the most here.

Very true. It seems everything, no matter what the topic is, turns into a fight, stan war, or both. However, here it is staying normal. This is actually a topic that just intellectuals seems to be posting in.

I am a big dreamer, but I do not like sci fi. I am a very calm person, but I have not had any self esteem problems. One of my favorite quotes 'Those who matter don't care, and those who care don't matter' so I don't give a damn about what people say about me.
I am not an only child. Very good.
Do I really have sad eyes?

is genuinely nice. Low key. Creative. Has many good, creative ideas. But due to the fact that he doesn't like to brag about his achievements, doesn't like to remind everyone all the time that a successful idea was his, some other, more determined people can claim to have had that idea first. But his contributions get noticed by few "important" people, so all of his hard-work doesn't go all unnoticed. Good team-player, because people working with him in the team feel very comfortable. He's not annoying in any sense of the word.
He would be a good friends for someone like himself. But he gets tired of people easily if he spends too much time with them. He's loyal though.
Overall an interesting person definitely. Good and valuable member of ATRL community as well.
Beatfreak tell me what I got right and wrong please.
Next up for me is Sticks. I'll need some time though.
edit: somebody should try Musiclover and BnPac too.

great analysis  you got bullseye with that one

Roman, I'll gladly do it, but probably later tomorrow...I need some time to gather my thoughts.
and hopefully I don't come off as an attention ***** when I celebrate the relative success this thread has seen. I usually don't care when my threads flop (and most of them do  ) but I feel like this thread is special and I am determined to make it work. I am genuinely thrilled to find out that several other members have found it entertaining.

^ Ashu, thats a good start. Try to elaborate even further and do a couple of other people.
Celestial:
(Like any girl not easy to profile, but I'll have a go at her)
She has love and respect for everything beautiful, which seems to fascinate her. Even her username here - I don't think the word really means anything to her personally, she just chose it because the word itself sounds delicate, original and beautiful.
I'm sure she's a nice looking female. I don't think she's ever posted a pic in PYP though
She has a habit of starting her conversations with saying something nice, continue it with "but, with all due respect" and follow it with a subtle insult. Which she later again covers up by saying something nice, but the damage is already done. People who are conversing with her might have a good feeling while talking to her, but some of them feel strangely put down after the convo is over.
Loves being outdoors, is in a good sports shape (but this guess of mine might be subconsciously influenced by her atrl avatar  ). Not many female friends. Prefers to hang out with some boys.
hmm What else...pretty open-minded. Often likes to think about her views concerning controversial subjects and formulate her stands on those issues just for herself.
Ok enough for now. Was I way off, Celestial?
edit: one more thing - she loves tennis, which means she's more of an individual/independent player, as opposed to a team player.
|
Beauty fascinates me, that's true but that's not why I chose my username. "Celestial" does mean something to me but I'm not going to go into detail about it.
I haven't posted any pictures here, I never intended to but maybe I will at some point in the future. I like being anonymous on ATRL, and I like that people I know like me for my personality here. In real life I'm not sure if that is the case. Most of my friends are boys, you got that right. I'm not a tomboy, I just get along with guys better. I do have close female friends too, but the majority of my friends are guys...
I love tennis but I don't play it as much as I used to. I'm fit but I don't exercise obsessively. I've always been thin.
I am open minded, but sometimes I get caught in the moment. I'm very stubborn, I always feel as though I have to prove myself.
I didn't realise I came across so badly during conversations. I think part of my problem is that other people often think that I'm really full of myself, I often come across as vain/ overtly confident but that's not my intention. I just don't get the balance right. I'm probably too judgmental sometimes, and I often judge people too quickly. Especially here, I've disliked almost all of my closest friends before we became close.
I acknowledge that I am bitchy at the best of times even if I do it in a subtle manner. I hope nobody gets offended by what I say, I don't want to bring anyone down.
Overall I think you did a pretty good job fanoftalent, even if it's not all favourable.
