    From the Urban Dictionary...
    Forumite: A regular at any given Internet message-board system, or "forum".
    Forumer: One who runs a forum or is an active member of one or more forums.

    So from Meepster's quotes, I can be a "forumer" (I'm on two forums) but would have to be a specific "MSE forumite". I think.

    I don't really like either. I think of the people here as MSEers, but if that doesn't differentiate them from people using the rest of the site I'd just go for 'MSE forum regs'

    Hi

    Don't see the option for ' none of the above' Both sound awful.

    Is Forumite one of those words you either love or hate?
    There's love in this world for everyone. Every rascal and son of a gun.
    It's for the many and not the few. Be sure it's out there looking for you.
    In every town, in every state. In every house and every gate.
    Wth every precious smile you make. And every act of kindness.

    Whatever the choice may be, I guess I'm "The Forum***" :o:o

    :p

    I prefer MSE'rs (don't really care what it means, just has a cool ring to it). Voted for Forumite anyway - the other one sounds like something else.
    Best Freebies/Wins/Testers so far: HP Officejet Pro 8500, Vax Zen, Thorpe Park Tks, 2x Rockwell Tkts, Windows 7, 2x Chelsea vs Arsenal Tkts, Genio Phone, JLS Tickets, 2 PSP games, 2 Xbox 360 games, iPod Touch, Blackberry Torch, Westlife Tkts, Tinie Tempah tkts, New York Trip AND MORE...
    Thanks to all posters on here:beer::T
