I think you can just have two categories:

Those who are the first to reply to the shred and those who aren't.

I'll add some later, too tired now. Plus there's a new Shred to play with = ultimate Shred fanboyism.

You should add some poll complainers. The people who:
A. Constantly say you missed a bunch of things in an attempt to flaunt a superior knowledge that they're convinced they have. 
B. Complain and say your poll sucks for reasons no person could possibly care about.
C. Say your poll is meaningless and acts as if there has to be a deep philosophical meaning behind every poll.
D. People that take everything said in the poll extremely literally. (e.g. if you make the poll title "Your favourite singer," you'll either get people who make a bunch of meaningless suggestions, oblivious to the fact that you obviously mean favourite of the group, or you'll get a bunch of angry people giving non-prog suggestions when it should be assumed that you mean favourite prog singer.)

There may be some additions to the list, but I saw reviewers as people who don't neccessarily live in the forum in the same way as the others... but yes, I may add a few more in time.

Yes.  Definitely get "Destroy Erase Improve", or if you like the sound of Bleed, "Nothing" is the best of their modern sound.

Personally, I feel Bleed is a very boring song.

To be honest, I don't think I fit into any of these categories.

There needs to be a category for the "prog-metalhead who tends to abruptly end threads by talking about Opeth or Meshuggah in a conversation dominated by symphonic progsters."

Now that I think about it, shouldn't there be a category for reviewers?

Amazing OP - hilarious and true!
 
I am a mixed hybrid between The Collab" (Forumis Collabourus), The Old Hand and The Spammer (one who hangs around 'just for fun' threads too long)

BTW I really  do love DT, but I'm no fanboy.
After all it is a fact they are the greatest band to ever have existed. Anyone who disagrees really has no musical taste.

And this was an awesome thread, nice to see some OC!
