Personally I have nothing against the idea, as long as its not used as another way to take digs at the site and its staff.

I think majority of the jokes would use that as base.

I do a comic on my site (however infrequent) based around a comic shop and TCG players. It got some marginally good reviews. Pwnd!

If I where to make a suggestion, I'd suggest taking a cue from Dave Chappelle. He had a skit on his show where he asked: What would the internet be like if it where an actual place that you visited? I think a great comic that would lend it self to good humor would be one that asks: What if vBulletin.com where an actual place that you could visit?

Just imagine what someone showing up as unlicensed would look like? What happens to a real person when his topic gets locked. Do trolls look like actual trolls? Is everyone's avatar is a patch or symbol on their t-shirts? Does the staff all dress like they do at Best Buy? Do Coders dress like the Geek Squad? I see some endless possibilities here.

Sorry, I personally don't think comics belong here, and for some reason I just have this sinking feeling in my gut that the strips would just turn out to be nonsensical agitprop that would increase friction here, not ease it.

as long as the Staff have the maturity to understand that we all here are 'NickNames' =Alter Egos of real persons... so u don't have to take it personally, is how the public perceives you...

My honest view? I don't have nothing against nobody... Forums must be the most popular sites and nevertheless they ARE NOT [since everybody can LEARN, improve, cooperate, integrate] but comic will be an ADD ON to our community

p.s. Imagine a Character of PoetJA always insulting ppl with nice words, should be funny ... but in real life is not
p.p.s Or Nexialys posting on 100 boards at the same time?

You know, real characters don't have to be used. Everyone can simply be archetypes or stereotypes of internet users, admins, etc.
