Well, I've been here long enough to count a few. The most recent 'I want to make a nazi army' thread is one that seems to crop up every so often like a neap tide.
So off the top of my head:
Dark Eldar are coming! honest guv!
Hi, I'm interested in making a nazi army, why all the long faces?
NEW CODEX WILL DESTROY THE UNIVERSE!!1!
Sudden revelation that White Dwarf is expensive and pointless.
Recasters, Robin Hood or Hannibal Lector?
Tournament Hardcore Elite Extreme Danger Players vs Tea and Sympathy Tree-Hugging Commie Casual Players - often merged with or mistaken for RAW Hardcore Elite Extreme Danger Players vs Tea and Sympathy Tree-Hugging Commie RAI Players...
Can anyone think of any more?

Hmm...here's some more:
GW sucks! Everything they do is wrong even though they're the most successful wargame company ever!
GW's prices - how many Aston Martins do they have?
Catachan arms - should the Commissars embark on a Mitchell Report?
Anyone buy from FW/MG/Warstore/etc? This is only posted once a couple of days why aren't there any replies??
Automatically Appended Next Post:
LAZZ-gun, las(er)-gun? Ketchup or Catsup?
Deodorant - why doesn't GW issue one in each of their boxsets and codices?

The idea is that it takes extra effort and time to write properly, and they’d rather save the time. If you can still be understood, what’s the harm? While most of the time a sloppy post CAN be understood, the use of proper grammar, punctuation, and spelling is generally seen as respectable and desirable on most forums. It demonstrates an effort made to be understood, and to make your post an easy and pleasant read. By making this effort, you can often elicit more positive responses from the community, and instantly mark yourself as someone worth talking to.

I think [something in the fluff] is actually [something else in the fluff] and it's a huge conspiracy! I know this because someone posted it on a wiki!
|
Anuvver fing - when they do sumfing, they try to make it look like somfink else to confuse everybody. When one of them wants to lord it over the uvvers, 'e says "I'm very speshul so'z you gotta worship me", or "I know summink wot you lot don't know, so yer better lissen good". Da funny fing is, arf of 'em believe it and da over arf don't, so 'e 'as to hit 'em all anyway or run fer it.

40k movie thread: terrible ideas, metal music and Vin Diesel. Awesome! There's one going on right now in Discussion.
"Hey guys I'm new here, any rumors about my army?" thread
"Hey dakka is this legal? But if you guys rule in a way that I don't like I'm going to disagree with you and argue about it for 6 pages." thread.
My all time favorite.
This guy is a jerk thread: Random poster creates a thread accusing an absent third party of being an ass. Third party posts. Drama ensues.

This army should have Special Rule X, Y, and Z, then I won't have to ever think during a game.
This unit is clearly unbalanced as I have no concept of adapting my army list from outside of my own preferences.
This army is clearly unbalanced because it just beat me and I am evidentally some sort of normally infalible gaming God.

Here's a recent one. Unfortunately the OP edited all his posts once it was found out he was lying, but the general gist is he accused an 'Ard Boyz TO of rigging the tourney in favor of local players. http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/251730.page This one managed to span two threads: http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/230345.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/230406.page There's more but they're hard to find. What's humorous is the way posters always sympathize with the OP because the story is slanted.

Some of these are repeats but I feel it is necessery to really hit the point home;
Has anyone seen this new game, its got spase marines in it and might be called spase marine?
GW are evil/up to something/charging too much etc - Usually a topic which would be seen as common sence if simple economics/logic were applied (usually no such luck!)
New codex is not as good as the old codex - AKA - What has GW done, my army has been hit with a nerf bat! (note: I do not actually understand what this sentence means).
America vs the rest of the world - they do it their way we do it the right way yadda, yadda, yadda!
American Healthcare vs other systems - AHHH! If they want to let the poor/old die in pain then let them!

Threads about someone defending themselves and it falling into a discussion about whether or not self-defense with lethal force is appropriate.
Or, a topic about guns that evolves into the same thing.
