Dale: I didn't know you read that forum 1. What's your screen name?
Jessie: It's "jessiegirl," but I don't post very often. I like to lurk 2 and follow the different threads, but I prefer to keep a low profile.
Dale: Really? I post all the time. I just put my new web address on my profile, and check this out. It's my new avatar.
Jessie: That's cool. I've been trying to figure out how to upload a picture for my avatar. Are there instructions in the FAQs?
Dale: I'm not sure, but I can show you how to do it. Have you been following the thread about the presidential campaign?
Jessie: Yeah, I had been...until today.
Dale: Why's that?
Jessie: I stopped reading when this one guy, "bigman," started to flame everybody, saying that anyone who didn't agree with him is an idiot.
Dale: Oh, really?
Jessie: Yeah, he started posting replies, writing in all caps and letting people have it. He quoted people out of context and attacked them. What a jerk!
Dale: Yeah, that guy sounds like a jerk.
Jessie: Hey, what did you say your screen name is?
Dale: Never mind.
