Player Types (And Which Ones Should Be Shot): The Combat Monkey

This is the first post in a series of posts (I hope) of player types I've encountered in a game and that I've heard rumors of (Such as the non-virgin gamer, ha ha). Starting out is the combat monkey variety, a normally stereotyped gamer though trust me, there are variations on this. Alright, here we go!

The Combat Monkey

• The Realistic Combat Monkey: While rare, this is the type of combat monkey that's tolerable, playable, and likable. These Combat Monkey's have a legitimate reason for having their combat specs, are not too over the top with them, and are usually not so thick in the head that its easier to talk to a brick than them. Though they're usually still in lines of work such as law enforcement and the military, they're not over the top and their IC interactions don't revolve around 'hulk smash'.
• The Angsty Combat Monkey: The combat monkey's occur less than the 'PKing Twink' monkeys, but more than the 'Loud and Proud' and 'Realistic' monkeys. These combat monkey's almost always have a tragic past where they've either failed someone, lost someone, or killed someone they loved or respected. Depending on the player, these characters though annoying at first still have a lot of potential to grow into great characters since they have essentially started at rock bottom and have the potential to become dynamic characters, but when the player refuses to let that character grow then they're stuck in angsty teen mode.
• The Loud and Proud Combat Monkey: The players are (BIG DUMB BRUTES) probably the most stereotypical. They're strong, they're big, they're (BIG DUMB BRUTES) tough and they will rearrange your face if you look at them wrong. These come in three types, enjoyable, tolerable, and 'someone shoot it before it spawns'. Enjoyable (BIG DUMB BRUTES) 'Loud and Proud's are either serious characters who know that their only combat and use it without gloating or acting like jerks, or occasionally play out their characters deficiencies to make them funny. Tolerable are normally the honorable type, annoying but useful and they'll normally teach you a thing or two. The last type are (BIG DUMB BRUTES) annoying at best. Running to the front of battles and killing things, then gloating over their superior fighting skills and trying to make time with anything vaugley female (To any of you effeminate boys out there, beware). On the upside, while they might make you feel like a loser for not having their dice pools there's still a chance they might teach you something.
• The PKing Twink Combat Monkey: These follow the stereotype to a T, more often than not. They're tesosterone pumped, thick skulled gorillas who kill anything in sight in the worst cases, and tesosterone pumped, thick skulled gorillas with a trainer to beat them with a stick in the right direction in the better cases. Depending on the player, these are either semi-efficient tanks, or manic killers bent on ripping things apart and finger painting in the blood for lulz. *Note* These plays also show up on MMO's as those level 70 mages that wtfpwn a group of 10 to 15 lvl players.

NOTE: We've had a near confirmed sighting of the non-virgin gamer, only to have our hopes dashed by Moses and a player on a chat game. (Screenshot coming later if I can find the blasted thing)
