1. Durdencommatyler – He has established his General Discussion staying power. His interview thread presents this poster as an articulate, well-adjusted member of the Red Mosquito community. His thoughtful, detailed responses are leading many to claim his interview as one of the greatest in recent RM history. We are witnessing a top-tier poster finding his place. In a word: Jeopardy.

2. Jammer91 – A return via second account. Then, a reinstatement of the original username. He’s back. This poster was a contentious figure during his initial membership with Red Mosquito, puzzling many posters and irking others. He has promised a new beginning. What does the future hold for Jammer 91?

3. Wonderboy – The checkered sofa persists. Can a Pizza-bumped high profile help ensure the success of the sofa meme?

4. Spike – A well-placed photograph in Other Bands exemplifies this poster’s appeal. He’s consistently in top form and displays proficient knowledge of Red Mosquito history, the potency of subtlety, and the value of good timing.

5. Mecca – Is he truly riding off into the sunset?

6. parchy – Not since Patrick Bateman’s baleful eyes dotted General Discussion has an RM user’s likeness been so solidified as a reliable meme. E.H. Ruddock’s usage of parchy’s likeness coupled with theplatypus’ frequent videos and anecdotes further the ubiquity.

7. Pizza the Hut – This poster’s power stems not just from her king-making acumen (see number 3), but in her considerable respect for RM history and thread integrity (see “RM’s nth dating thread”).

8. psychobain – His considerable breadth of musical knowledge and willingness to foster exposure to new album leaks earns this poster a spot on the rankings. A perennial powerhouse in Other Bands and Arts and Entertainment.

9. lennytheweedwhacker – A committed return to General Discussion reaffirms his spike-level consistency. Rafa_garcia18’s bump of the “Mickey” thread highlights a complicated relationship with the vest-clad Floridian. A friend then… a foe now? Could a conflict be brewing?

10. invention – While widely recognized as a respected contributor to General Discussion, his value to the “what are you reading?” thread in Arts and Entertainment is often overlooked. He, along with Mickey and withoutrings, are among a handful of active posters who keep that successful and valuable thread alive.

looks like my plan worked

reading all those books finally paid off

I was a big fan of rafa's work this week. *shrugs*

i'm beginning to believe alex genuinely dislikes the rifraf

oh well

Let's not bullshit, Paul's there because of his hawt wife.

i believe you've been on the rankings once or twice before. i like you! i had limited time to spend boarding this week. did much of this level 8 posting occur on the weekend or during the evenings? if so, i might have missed some of it.

i'm willing to do what it takes

Get her on tinychat?

Blue state exit poll post.

I really enjoy posting with you, Mickey.

I read that as "rarely" and I thought, fair.

Guys, this weeks power rankings are, I believe, the signal that there has been a changing of the guard in GD. Gone are the CHUD, Thodoks, platypus, skitch and washing machine.. A few holdovers to be sure, but this is a new crew. The reemergence of Spike is a tie to the past, as is lenny. But Durdencommatyler, and Wonderboy hold spots in the top 3, with a relatively new to GD parchy, a returned Jammer and a departing mecca sure seem like our time here is coming to an end.


RIP RM GD:TheFurious era.

edzeppe post

she's too classy for that. we'd just end up embarrassing ourselves.

Thodoks is as funny as ever. Alex just doesn't have his finger on the pulse of RM.

oh, i agree, but in large part he has done more posting in N&F&D again. Gone are the days of RM chat with 13 people, mostly all from Furious.

I think Alex just can't find the clit of RM.
