The Token Forum Nerd (or the TFN) is found in most forums as the most active nerd that looks at all posts by normal users and will most likely respond to them regardless if it holds their interest or not. Usually their motivation for being the TFN is to get, or if they already have, to keep "the most posts" in that community. Another motive is to be well known in that community in order to maintain their e-ego.
