...When you are posting these darn replies at 5:04 AM when you should have been asleep hours ago.

...When you scare random passerbys by telling them to "give St. Leo his db!"

(Ugh, and for me anyway, when I use another member's username in a thread without being prompted.)

When you fail to prepare for a professional examination because of the "One more post syndrome".

Thankfully I will abstain just long enough. I hope.

You start memorizing threads...

You start using abbreviations on the forums to minimize time spent on the forums... but you spend just as much time anyway.

...when ideas mentioned in this thread actually make perfectly good sense to you.

"Hey honey, can our next son be named Apolyton?"
Evil cackle, then slamming of door.
"Honey?"
Silence...
"How about for a middle name?"
Silence...
*sighs*

...when you start being known in the threads you post to most often for certain little quotes.

"turn recieved... will play after work."

...when you're known by more people for your handle than for your real name.

Quote:
ColdWizard mentioned this...
... you use quick reply exclusively because you've long since memorized all the vB and smilie codes
guilty...

...when you often try to guess the gender of your fellow posters rather than looking at their profile... and then worrying about being right or not if it's not mentioned in his/her profile.

...when you are forced to learn the metric system simply to understand some of the things mentioned. (still working on it, but I'm learning!)

...when you actually spend the time (at work! ) to read this entire thread just to make sure you don't post something somebody else has already thought of.

Quote:
Mentioned by Mr. President
When you answer to your Apolyton screen name in real life.
Also guilty...

...when you're wished by people Happy Birthday without EVER mentioning your birthday... they just cared enough to check your profile for it.

...when you care enough about your fellow posters to check their profiles for their birthdays. (Thanks to Troll [the poster from CtP forums]).

...when the attractiveness of your wife's picture on your personal webpage is mentioned by a fellow poster.

...when you actually find another poster's wife attractive and aren't worried that the other person will be jealous(thanks Ricketyclik [CtP] forums).

...when you actually find another poster's wife attractive and are worried that the other person will be jealous.

...when you realize that there are many different social groups to Apolyton... (CtP forums, vs. SMAC forums, vs. OT forums, etc.)

...when your summer vacation consists of thinking about all the countries represented on this thread and going to them in your mind...

...when you do your reply in notepad with all the proper code and then use the quick reply just so you won't get hit by any kind of an angry post count stick.

...when you do your reply in notepad because you're willing to read such a huge thread and want to reply to so much.

Yeah... it gets even sadder since 'poly isn't the only place I'm known as FlameFlash... go almost to any site and if there's a FlameFlash registered, it'll probably be me. I've had this handle since 1994/1995.
