There comes a time in every forum where a post is posted that lacks such thought, sense or direction, that it deserves a way to describe it. We describe such posts, as darnokply. And in honor of such posts, we have established, the darnokpl of the month award:
"that you need a helmet to post and play this game"
Every month, you, the forumites, may select and vote for posts to go down in the darnokpl hall of fame. Some posts to start off:

First off, a post from champie4, about the recent removal of bugged farms:

Truly a darnokpl in the making.
Next, a thread asking for help from IGN. The story itself is rather confusing to the untrained eye, but a version for the more simple minded:
A heart wrenching tale of how this ol' bloke IGN is angry at how they won't fix the bug of being unable to place a stove in his wooden lean-tube, when he has paid the game substantial amount of money for silver and socks! This is all so outrageous from such a promising medieval time game, so sophisticated that it hides behind the name of the colonial american town of Salem. He hasn't paid any money for something silly like silver or socks or nothing, but unless this game is fixed, in like 3 days, he refuses to pay it a single penny!
For the more discerning individual, here is the story, in all of its beauty:
so i have been reading the wiki a lot and saw that you can make a stove. I have limited time to play sadly and i have been spending more than 3 hours to fix this and i cant.
this is bs because this is one of the top things that beginners need and if this is a known bug then its just wasting my time!!! i bought a lot of silver and bought a stocking and i cant even place it!!!!!!! i use my real money for this game with bugs and they can't even fix it! i will quit and not give more money unless this gets fixed in like 3 days. please help.
i did not buy silver yet but i was thinking to buy silver. if they fix the problems, then i will invest money otherwise they will get nothing from me!!! this game is very annoying right now but i am giving it a chance since i love medieval time games. goodnight and thank you sirs
Next in line is a post by CockyBastard, explaining how a java MMORPG where people can abuse overpowered mechanics to god-tier levels and destroy other people's work with little effort is ok because he found some wikipedia article on some guy from the napoleonic war who had limbs lobbed off. I know what you're thinking: totally relatable subjects. The full post can be seen below:
CockyBastard wrote:I am totally sick of people who complain about a games balance. Life is not balanced, nothing is ever balanced. Check out Horatio Nelson, Early in his service, Nelson discovered that he suffered from seasickness, a chronic complaint that dogged him for the rest of his life. 1775 Nelson suffered his first attack of malaria, which was so severe that he nearly died - it was recurrent malaria afflicting him many more times later in his life. 1781, Nelson’s left arm and left leg were troubling him and the fingers of his left hand were white, numb and swollen. He was wounded several times in combat, losing one arm(the right good one) and the sight in one eye. 1794, Nelson was almost killed when a huge shower of earth from a heavy shot landed on him. Only days later he was hit in the face by earth and rocks when a shell exploded. He wrote ‘I got a little hurt this morning’, when in fact he had been blinded in his right eye. 1797, Nelson received a musket ball shot just above his right elbow. The ship’s surgeon amputated the dangling forearm and gave him opium for the pain. Half an hour later he was giving orders for the battle, dictating letters and trying out his new signature. Do you see him moaning that life is unbalanced and he refuses to play more until someone develops penicillin or proper hygienic medical treatment? NO, nope.
Finally, a post from the one and only, darnokpl! Ignoring mind, and the fact that there is a forum section directly suited to the making, installing, troubleshooting, and distribution of third party clients and client mods, he has leapt straight into our hearts with this lovable post!

Thanks, fixed it. I frankly didn't give enough of a ***** to look at the wikipedia article.
