Im making a list. (i dont know why, i was bored i guess.)
its of SEN stereotypes!! (a good idea dont you think?)
Description: A stereotype is a "widely held but fixed and oversimplified image or idea of a particular type of personn or thing." ie; the stereotype of the woman as the carer (of the children) or as a wife or a house cleaner.
Please just post your stereo types in an easy to read manner or fashion.
ie; Photoshopper: Has photoshop and tends to spend alot of thier time on SEN in the Creative Works forum.
understand?
Now, heres the list of what ive got so far, and what has been posted:
Photoshopper: Has photoshop and tends to spend alot of thier time on SEN in the Creative Works forum.
Yoshi: a quite rare stereotype, who refers to himself as "god" often.
Noob mapper: a "not quite evolved" yet map maker, who tries hard but fails to make popular maps.
Lazy mapper: This often Excellent map maker stereotype will make a great map or trailer, and fail or take along time to make the promised sequel, or, new map. And can also Start making the map, but never finish. Alot of this population tends to come from the Elite mappers.
The "lite" Players: This species of stereotype is endangered, possibly because of the abbundancy of them turning into Rejects or Elite mappers. Sometimes, in rare cases they will jump the normal steps, and become a Lazy mapper right away.
The Elite Mappers: This stereotype group tends to make quite a few great maps in thier time, before becoming either Lazy mappers or Rejects.
Rejects: The users that have Quit Starcraft and/or SEN and the internet. this stereotype tends to gather most of its population from Lazy mappers, Elite mappers or "lite" players.
The Traitors: This despicable sterotype has its population using the SEN forums and turning from starcraft to other Demonic Games, such as Counter Strike and Warcraft III, or even the worst of them all... The WoW gamer. - (Note: this stereotype is probably from a Starcraft mappers point of view. i mean no offense to anyone)
The "good" traitors: The lighter form of traitor, who will occasionally have a few hours of fun on starcraft, but will still use other games. This stereotype has a slarge a population as the Traitors.
The Hackers: A VERY Rare stereo type, consisting of about 4-5 individuals. They often Disguise Themselves into other stereotypes, seeing as SEN does not support hackers, and/or out of fear of the all mighty moderators, or even the All powerful Yoshi's.
The Moderators: Nice, Calm and good-willing people, when the law of SEN is obeyed. When not obeyed, no one can do anything to stop thier Harsh judgement on the crime commiters.
DLDB keepers: They are the backbone of SEN. A small group of people who spend hours approving your maps to the DLDB. They ban anyone in the blink of an eye if they steal a map or spam the DLDB. These people are usually Concept Mappers which create trigger systems and new Concepts but rarely finish a map. Be carefull though, most DLDB Keepers are also Global Mods! Basicly, this is the group of people most active on SEN.
Trolls: A very curious creature with a short lifespan. Usually created from newbie mappers who can't understand forums. A troll's natural habitat is the Shoutbox, but they migrate to the forums during the warmer seasons.
Trolls' diets consist of a mixture of spam and smilies. Often, trolls will consume and regurgitate a large amount of capital letters and helpsmilie.gif smileys.
Trolls are insecure and will feel threatened by any response besides "OMFG U PWNZ!!", and will resort to flaming. Trolls usually die within a few hours as their threads and accounts are deleted.
The matter of whether or not a troll actually OWNS starcraft or uses the campaign editor is irrelevant, because no one can decipher their strange language.
The originals: People who have accumulated an unofficial membership into the underground circle of trust within the high-ranking and old-time SEN members.
The hated: Infamous for their bad qualities. This species also tends to flame more often then needed.
The originals: People who have accumulated an unofficial membership into the underground circle of trust within the high-ranking and old-time SEN members.
Tutorial Database Keepers: These are the people who go around posting, "We have tutorials for everything!" at random places.
The melee map makers: stick to the melee forum, and always are defensive when it comes to people saying UMS is harder.
Idiots: This group tend to spam more often than not, but just dodge it by posting in seperate topics.
The Wannabe's: These people are desperate to gain a status everyone can recognise. they will post everywhere and on anything even if they have no idea what theyre posting about. they will start threads, and post the url of the thread through the shoutbox several times, before getting frustrated. this group is a cousin stereotype to the less common Idiot.
The Mr.Cocky: Assumes people respect him or herself and tends to compliment him or herself, revealing their truly annoying personality.
The I-Know-More-Than-You: The person who suits the definition of Mr. Cocky pretty well, but they also use nice arguments to throw people they belive wrong off guard. They usually assume they are smarter than whoever they are talking to. These people usually like to draw attention to themselves, also...
The Psycho Bitch: Not much is known about this breed because she resides only in the Off Topic area, venturing out once in a while to post in the shoutbox or Feedback/Bugs area.
The SEN Dodgers: This is probably one of the strangest breeds, almost as strange as the Psycho bitch, but they are strange because of thier weird habbit to register accounts on SEN, then never come back. Ever.
The Lurkers: People who have maintained accounts at SEN for a long time but only surface every once in a while to make one or two posts. Their accounts are on the edge of being deleted for inactivity, but they're active enough to avoid that fate.
The programmers: A smart group, tend to come from the lazy or elite mappers, usually because of thier unique curiosity. they program badly at first, but can come to make some of the greatest programs ever.
Feel free to post more Stereotypes, or things you think should be added/changed in the ones already stated.
Have fun.
Tutorial Database Keepers: These are the people who go around posting, "We have tutorials for everything!" at random places.
That's not a stereotype of Tutorial Keepers, that's a stereotype of you.
The Troll: A very curious creature with a short lifespan. Usually created from newbie mappers who can't understand forums. A troll's natural habitat is the Shoutbox, but they migrate to the forums during the warmer seasons.
Trolls' diets consist of a mixture of spam and smilies. Often, trolls will consume and regurgitate a large amount of capital letters and

Example of troll language: "GaHj i WaS PlAyN TiS MaPp N iT wS rEaLyL CoOL LiKeE EvoLveS!!!
" (This of course, would be posted in an irrelvant fourm, like threads on Halo 2 in the Creative Works forum, or a discussion of Star Wars in Map Making Assistance)
Sterotypes are normally things that certain religons and ethniatic backgrounds do a lot and made a sterotype of it. Like how mexian's last names can be: Rogregaz, Lopez, Sanchez, etc.
A "The Troll" is not something that can be sterotyped...
This is just made up creatures because you guys are damned bored.
The Troll exists... don't tell me you've never seen one?

I hope you aren't taking that seriously. I do it only for fun
You'd be surprised to the amount of people who have taken it seriously.
Eh? Like how many people?
It only started because some people were calling me god whenever I did something, so I decided to call myself that at times when it was random and the time was right. Anyone with a sense of humor would of noticed I was kidding. I mean, this IS the internet.
Everyone calls themself God at times. Its normal. Its just lots of people look up to and call you god. Your a god at this site
The hated: Known for their bad qualities yet popular for them.
The originals: People who have accumulated an unofficial membership into the underground circle of trust within the high-ranking and old-time SEN members.

Hahaha, thats just you.
The melee map makers: stick to the melee forum, and always are defensive when it comes to people saying UMS is harder.
Idiots: People who say stuff EVERYWHERE and it has NO meaning. some one getting close to this: Devilesk.

Dam you people and your quick replies to url's in the shoutbox... now i must reedit...

Go Lazy mappers!!!
Lazy Mapper (Type 2): This often Excellent map maker stereotype will start to make a great map, but gets lazy and never finishes, or starts another. (You can make more descriptive)
I'm the kind I just put, I have over 200 unfinished maps
Hmm.. maybe my 200 is wrong? lemme check... Yup, about 230 somthin.
Mr.Cocky: Assumes people respect him or herself and often compliments him or herself, revealing their truly annoying personality.

Are you saying that about what PsychoTemplar said? Ifso, that isnt me.
Ok, you basically called yourself the excellent map maker.
And, how can you say I am not if you have never even seen one of my maps?
People who I show my *coughincompletecough* maps are the ones who say I'm excellent...
Also, "often Excellent" Often doesn't mean always, it means usually.
Cocky means overly self-assertive or self-confident. Not neccessarilly that you aren't actually good. I was refering to you in my post, get a hint. Clearly you meant you were one of the good ones, I'm also pretty sure that you modified it to often because I hadn't refreshed it while making my reply. There are a lot of cocky people on the site, you were an easy target.
