All so true, but you left out (I think) the one religious member who requires the changing of the bulb be prayed over by everyone on the board, and then uses the thread as a way to introduce another sermon on the board contrary to forum rules on religion and politics.

(true story, on a forum with a paid membership as part of a type specific, aircraft owners group.)
