Garem's guide to Flood popularity (Updated again)
Hello, everyone. If you've been here as long as I have, you'll notice that a lot of people take popularity on here as a big deal. Now, you're probably wondering, "Well, yeah. I love being popular. But how can I get it?" Just follow these steps, and you'll be instacool:
Step One: Get coup.
[i]Bnet's default avatars are dull, and everyone uses them. Coup will make you stand out. If you don't use coup, at least use a lesser-known avatar.[/i]
Step Two: Post often.
[i]This should be obvious.[/i]
Step Three: Break the rules every now and then.
[i]The most memorable threads are threads that aren't in line with Bnet's rules. You'll have to break the rules creatively, though.[/i]
Step Four: Don't be a phony.
[i]Mostly everyone on here is one. Not being one will make you stand out.[/i]
Step Five: Have outrageous opinions.
[i]This is a must.[/i]
Step Six: Don't use memes.
[i]Seriously.[/i]
Step Seven: Claim to be a girl
[i]Most Floodians are antisocial. They enjoy communicating with females online to compensate.[/i]
Step Eight: Spam "do you recognize the user above you" threads.
[i]Anyone who says "no" will recognize you afterward.[/i]
Step Nine: Have a memorable username.
[i]A name like "iFarted69" or "FeliciaSucksBlackShaft" is going to get you more attention than "Ron5567" or "HALOFREAK"[/i]
That's all there is to it. Have a suggestion for another step? Post it in this thread.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Garem [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] UphillMercury Really, all you need to do to be popular is follow the forum code of conduct; don't be a jerk, compose relevant, on-topic posts, and remember the fact that you have no rights.[/quote] lolno[/quote] I see no reason why it wouldn't. Typically, no one is overly enthused when a user posts something completely irrelevant to the thread topic, nor are they elated when someone acts like a jerk. If you post regularly and display these traits, you will gain popularity.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Garem [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] darthnilhilus97 [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Garem Step One: Get coup.[/quote] Stopped reading there. I'd rather not have to squint in order to read the hieroglyphic-esque fonts and terrible color choices that many use.[/quote] And no one knows who you are.[/quote] My goal here is not to popular. My goal here is to be a nice guy in a sea of trolls, and to enjoy the Flood. Also, I wouldn't be talking if I were you. I've at least been a member for over a year.
