In some forums I do it to promote name recognition. Given that we have signatures, I don't see the need to do so here.
I see this a lot on sports websites too. I think about where this came from, like if these people used to be Usenet or BBS posters where you just threw a message up. Then I just stopped thinking so hard about it and decided that the people that do this are attention seeking tools and it really makes life so much easier.
It's not a huge bother but you do wonder the thought process behind it. Maybe like the internet version of speaking in the third person.
Since it looks like Pet Peeve Saturday and we are getting it out there, anyone that says the words "meh" or "tho" I want to beat them with their own shoe. Of course since that's like about 90% of the internet now, I just chalk it up to the changing times and learn to live with it. I don't want to morph into a codger just yet.
Of course you were inb4 everyone else. You started the thread

What..... I Hate........ Even..... More................. Is... People.......... who talk like ........................ this..
The topic, as short as it may have been has reminded me of one thing.
No matter how harmless/silly it may be whatever it is you're doing in today´s society, someone out there (really) hates you for it
Ego. End of story.
Especially love the attention seekers who just have to use colored text on all their posts.
I do it because I chose not to use my name as my handle.
My handle is based on a word I could not spell in Gaelic as a child. Caileag. I always mispelled it.
But my name is Alexis, and I would prefer people who get to know me refer to me as such. Also; I am not a fan of what I call "internet anonymity syndrome" and never try to "hide". The emote underneath is just a habit I piccked up. *smiles* *frowns* *dances with glee* etc.

We could sow confusion in order to satisfy our petty vengeance urge?

Self-pity imprisons us in the walls of our own self-absorption. The whole world shrinks down to the size of our problem, and the more we dwell on it, the smaller we are and the larger the problem seems to grow.
I can only imagine what other petty things bother and tick you off. (Once again, can't assume due to those things called forum rules). Now, if I was to tell you that I'm logging off after this post, that would be flaming and I'd get a warning or ban... Oh well, it's bitter irony nonetheless
There are a lot of things that annoy me. Things like adding extra letters to a username because the one you wanted was taken. xXx Awesome xXx. Or adding numbers for the same reason. Awesome1198498494165165. Switching capitalization for no reason in a username. AwEsOmE.
Signing your name when it has already been done is also lame. If you wanted to you could include it in the signature field, and savve time.
This thread is going places.

Can't be worse than people ending their posts with

That REALLY makes me cringe
yes it does lol
Is the season getting you a little stressed, bishbosh2?
( when people start getting sensitive to how other people are behaving, I'm not sure if I should argue with them or go over and give them a sympathy hug ... well, if I had normal-sized personal space and actually gave hugs )
I would do it if i knew it bothered somone

[Non-mod edit] Really wish the mods would delete the whole post, instead of just the part of it that made it all make sense.
All of my posts are either intelligent, thought provoking, funny, satirical, sarcastic or intentionally disrespectful. Take your pick.
I get banned in the forums for games I love, so lets see if I do better in the forums for games I hate.
I enjoy the serenity of not caring what your opinion is.
I don't hate much, but I hate Apple© with a passion. If Steve Jobs was alive, I would punch him in the face.
Am I missing something? It shouldn't matter, as everything gets read eventually.
