(I'm not sure where this really belongs, so I'm putting it in YF for now. Mods, feel free to move it to Forum Games if you think it fits better there.)
The point of this thread is to list your favorite tropers and say what makes you like them so much. Please be specific; we already have Gushing About Shows You Like if you want to gush about TV Tropes or the Forums in general.
EDIT: Chopped the list because it's now quite outdated, and there are some comments in here that only made sense back in 2009 and may have even been a bit creepy.

I have good stories? For some reason, hearing that pleases me.
Why, did I ever tell you guys about the time I convinced David Hasselhoff to sell me his car for ten pounds of fortune cookies...?
月を見るたび思い出せLets see, time for Alkthash to gush[[hottip:*and be late for the thread as usual]]
- Lull - for managing to be likeable despite having an attitude that would normally irritate me.
- Tzetze - for alternatively joining in or causing the collective chaos in the fora.
- Bobby G - for being a genuinely nice person
- Sneebs - he doesn't post as often as others, but his posts are generally contain actual content worth reading.
- [AOD] - for refusing to put up with bullshit. even when said bullshit doesn't exist
- Glenn Magus Harvey - for generally responding to a lot of posts in a thread in a meaningful manner.
- Haven/Venhax - for being alternatively mature, amusing and scary as hell.
- Arilou - because he provides good commentary when he responds to stuff
- Matrix - For occasionally getting me to think about language. All the conlang babble he throws out makes me look at English and German more closely and that is a good thing.
- Noimporta - The avatar mutating
- Magruda - for being a cool moderator
- Korg - for being a real life Knight in Sour Armor
- Meat - for having some cool ideas
- Melloncolie - Nietzsche stuff
- Meta4 - even handed modding and making me look at Gunnerkrigg Court because of his avatar
- Desrtopa, Karaloa, Insofar, and Jethro - for saying things that force me to look at my own opinions.
- Furiko - well for being cool generally
- Blackmoon and the rest of the Kunin circle(who haven't been mentioned already) - just starting up a doujin like this is kind of awesome.
- Fawriel - man-moe!
- Fast Eddie and Janitor - for setting up and maintaining this wonderful place.
- BLAM - for being surprisingly articulate for a 14 year old and making me remember that not all teens are idiots.
- Everybody else! Except Toliver, I hate that guy. and Alkthash too
Yay, someone believes I'm articulate rather than the opposite. I'm one of those creepy looking characters who spend the first half of the movie with just an arm, wields the power of maximum verbosity, and tortures enemy redshirts with it.
Some writing.You're definitely articulate, Afghan. The only time I don't understand what you say is when you're being self-depracating.
"I can't imagine what Hell will have in store, but I know when I'm there, I won't wander anymore."ZOMG!@21!!! LOL JK

You're looking for this person.Yes, thank you, BLAM. For succeeding where this 14 year old has failed.
You don't need to fish for compliments Meaty, you're on the list too.
You should have seen me when I was fourteen. LOL indeed.
Some writing.When I was fourteen...I had this really bad tendency to shift between periodic sentences and shit. Well, the periodic sentences were also shit, but in a different way.
Fourteen was also my Dork Age. Boy, I knew so little of politics.

"I can't imagine what Hell will have in store, but I know when I'm there, I won't wander anymore."What part of Sincerity Mode do you not understand? I'm an Attention Whore who talks in disjointed ALL CAPS.
Anyway, I like everyone who posts in the Jasper Morello fanthread.
That actually is a huge compliment to me. I'd say most of my comments are pretty inane, though. I admit I have a problem with sentence fragments.
You're looking for this person.Which reminds me that I've been meaning to watch that.
"I can't imagine what Hell will have in store, but I know when I'm there, I won't wander anymore."<< Speaks/posts in only sentence fragments.
Some writing.I also only post in sentence fragments. They're just put together.
This post was stupid and inane and I apologise for it.

"I can't imagine what Hell will have in store, but I know when I'm there, I won't wander anymore."You guys are fine. Sentence fragments get a pass on forums because they mirror actual human dialog and help with the immersion.
really, not one troper found me notable or likeable? I am freaking Zoidberg.
I have a strange need to get my ego stroked some more tonight.
月を見るたび思い出せ*Strokes Blackmoon's ego*
Pfft. You're pretty; what do you need ego-strokin' for?
A True Lady's Quest - A Jojo is You!...pretty?
That's, uh...
that's a new one.
月を見るたび思い出せYou need ego stroking? At least you got listed on a couple lists. My name didn't show up once.

Excuse me while I got beat my Attention Whore persona with a stick now.
As if I ever get tired of it myself.
Some writing.@Alk: Well, if I helps, I <3 you. You're a really nice guy!
月を見るたび思い出せThat's, uh...
that's a new one.
I'm catching up in the Photos thread. I'm on post 1676. I am most likely doomed.
A True Lady's Quest - A Jojo is You!
I'm quite glad to hear that. Back atcha.
