Totally get that, @wells.morgan. I've been in a few threads where I could guess who posted before even seeing the name. It really does become its own little soap opera you keep checking on.
Right there with you! I've been following a couple of those epic threads for what feels like years. I'd refresh the page so much I started to recognize the posting patterns of the main people arguing. You get weirdly invested in seeing how it all turns out, like waiting for the next season of a show that might never come.
