There is no sacrifice too great for Martyr. She devotes all her spare time to the forum, and if you challenge her, you will hear about it in great length, even if nothing she has done has anything to do with the subject at hand.
I need help fleshing this one, too, although this lady's pretty common.

I was gonna use the name "Martyr" to describe what happens when a popular warrior is banned from the forum for an unjust reason and the banning inadvertently creates insurrection and also causes members to jump ship. Kind of like what would happen if an admin struck down a popular Rebel Leader. Not that I am describing something that happened to myself or anything of the sort..............

Ive seen that exact thing happen. Someone gets banned, a lot of the forujm, who have already clustered around this person get the shits and leave, usually set up thier own forum. Though that case it wasnt a Rebel Leader, it was a Godfather.
IMO a Martyr would be a person that holds thier viewpoint regardless of the opposition, and thus would simply be a variant of Stone Deaf and/or Ferrous Cranus, with the only difference being the motivation for the support of that hopeless cause. |

So, basically, we need better names?

OK, in that case "Sufferer" fills the bill.

What about The Foundation? Just tweak it to say she rants about almsot single-handedly holding up the forum, and how the forum was built on her back. People like this (when it's not a front and they actually did dedicate a lot of work to the forum) are extremely hard to attack. They get a lot of sympathy defense no matter how ridiculous what they say is.

Get real, I was being gracious. Too bad you've never seen it before.
