Merry Christmas Y'all!
This thread is specifically directed towards your intentions, persona, and attitudes while interacting on Sherdog.
A significant percentage of posters on Sherdog are pretty serious about MMA and combat sports. They hardly if ever troll, get seriously incensed over certain issues and controversies, and often exhibit an amazing degree of knowledge of techniques, personalities, and history.
I'm more or less disregarding the War Room, but apart from that a few sub-forums seem more serious-minded than others. Boxing, Betting, the several Techniques Forums are examples. Even the Worldwide MMA Forum seems on average to be more serious than the UFC Forum.
Overall, my subjective impression is that the Fight subdivision of forums.sherdog.com is comprised of about 60% serious posts and conversations with the remainder being trolling, flaming (different than trolling?), disinforming, joking, having relaxed conversations with online friends, spreading random rumors, and just generally goofing around.
Regarding myself, I'm not super-serious about the UFC, MMA, or other combat sports. But I try never to act like a jerk. And when I tell a joke, I try to keep it aligned with Sherdog Tradition.
Summing it up, I'd say I'm somewhat serious in about 40% of my posts.
How about you?
