Asunto: Re:What might one call someone who habitually snipes at the posts of others without contributing much to any conversation in particular? :o)
The Usurper: It's called sniping. When a guy does it, you call it a snipe from a sniper. When a lady does it, it's a snipe from a snipette. There's a whole branch of study called "Snipology" where people study the sniping tactics of people. Also, there's snipe hunting, which has nothing to do with sniping as a snipe is also an animal that only comes out at night and snipe hunting is popular in different parts of the world.
