WhatsApp” is undoubtedly the most popular cross-platform messaging and Voice Over IP App with more than 2 Billion people users around the world. With these many users it becomes more interesting to decode their style and mentalities…
Please note; the article is a compilation of my thoughts and experiences. It is not necessary that everybody would agree to it. People may differ and I sincerely do not intend to offend anyone.
So, let's get started!
The Good Morning Wishers – This set of WhatsApp Users top my list. They deserve to be on the top.? These are those users who do not forget to wish you “Good Morning” and “Good night” every single day ? . Some of them even top-up the good morning messages with few motivational lines…
The Emojians – These are the ones who have Emojis for every occasion. They either don’t have time to write or maybe, they just want to use Emojis to convey their feelings… No wonder, WhatsApp keeps developing and adding new emojis more often.
The “Always Online” –I must say, these are the addicted ones, you will find them “Online” always. They are Super Active on the App…
The Attention Seekers – These types of people leave no stone unturned to seek attention. They often try to seek attention through their posts and statuses.
The Preachers – These are another group of people in your contact list who love to educate all ? they love to preach and have content on every topic you discuss (Dude! Been there Done That!!!)
The Leavers –These are the ones who get upset very quickly and leave the group. The moment somebody leaves, others in the group start flooding with messages like “Why someone left?? They really don’t care on about you leaving, but are more curious to know what made you leave and further gossip with others ? This scenario is more common amongst Friends/Family/Relatives Group Chats ?
The Gossipers – These people have all the time in the world. They love to gossip around anything and everything and draw conclusions ?
The Spreaders – These are the ones who would keep forwarding photos and videos to everyone without even understanding the authenticity or source…Some do get into trouble for spreading unnecessary material.
The Status Freaks – Wait, who puts 30 pictures in the “Status Notification”???… These are the ones who are extremely punctual to update their Status everyday… Some post one liners motivators, some have celebrated their anniversaries and birthdays or someone has just tried a new recipe at home… They want the rest of the world to know what they are up to…
The Group Admins – I’m the boss here!!! Fear Me… I’m the most powerful guy in this group because I created you…. “Kabhi Kabhi toh lagta hai apun hi bhagwan hai” ?
The Dead – These are the ones who never respond to messages on the group. They silently monitor the posts but do not contribute anything. God knows why they are even there if they are not communicating…
The Selective Repliers- These are the special kind ones... They are pretty much silent most of the time however they would participate on selective topics only...
The Blessing of “Mute Notification” – Dear WhatsApp, thank you for setting up the Mute Notification button. If you are? by any chance part of the School WhatsApp Group then you would know what I’m talking about. The school WhatsApp groups are the most active groups I feel.
