I think we've already covered that posers are people who want to fit into a particular scene because they think it will be convenient or beneficial for them. However, they don't possess the proper mindset, dedication, or beliefs to truly adopt the lifestyle of the scene, so they take every stereotype they can find, live up to it, and then pretend to know what they're talking about.

Posers are easy to spot because of their cliched arguments and stances, lack of substance backing their statements, stereotypical behaviour, and brash dismissal of anyone in the scene in question who calls them on their ignorance.

Once a poser has effectively made himself a pariah in the current scene, he scraps the act and picks up another one.

In life, everyone is either a leader of a follower. Posers are the worst kind of followers.
