I think there was some internet forum archetypes link, and Diablo would be characterized as "Godfather" or something - so I think yes, other forums have a Diablo.

My friend is actually writing part of her dissertation on the social culture of Internet forums. She interviewed me since I participate on one - she was especially curious about "very high volume posters". In online community parlance, these "super nodes" are critical to a forum thriving.
