    Its interesting how tidbits of info can feed into a "picture" you have of someone.

    So, for the larf, what about making as entertaining an assumption as you can, based on the last 5 to 10 messages by a poster?

    Maybe do it based on the poster directly above you in the thread?

    I'll get it rolling

    Mod: nope

    It's a bit intrusive to be mining personal information from posts. That's not why people post.

    Ah its not like that at all. Saw that poster started a thread on horoscopes, so I guessed a few things based on that. Supposed to be a bit of fun, not creepy. But it is what you make it I suppose!

    Its hardly datamining.

    So I'll do you, Candie.

    Speculating about posters based what they've innocently posted in unrelated threads is intrusive. The poster in question probably doesn't want strangers on the internet speculating about her life and character.

    That shouldn't need to be pointed out.

    I thought it would be amusing (and it would be!) to hear a few guesses and assumptions about yourself) everyone is always self-interested!

    But Fair enough, I'll leave the thread to die then. Youre not the only one that jumped to negative thoughts.
