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.

You are so mean, and I'm okay with that. Your life long dream is to drink Garrus Juice!

>My loss. Even if you were seasoned with experience I wouldn't need you advice. The only popularity I need is the ones from the Mods, and I got that. Every Ninja knows who I am and that's all I wanted (granted they only know me cause they all banned my ass more times than you've had hot showers, but I digress). [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Garem Don't take the advice, then. Your loss. [/quote]

I break the rules quite often... I've been told that I behave like a female.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Garem [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Connor Kenway 99 Or here's something even easier. Be a girl and show the flood a good amount of pics and post often like an attention whore. Most people on the flood are annoying white knights so you'll be remembered, maybe stalked, but you'll gain some popularity. Like CamCamm and Felicia402. [/quote] Ooooh, good one. Added.[/quote] You're welcome.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Garem [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] TehWarMoose [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Garem phony.[/quote] On an unrelated note, every time I see this word, I'm reminded of Catcher in the Rye and how much I hated that book.[/quote] Most people who don't like that book are too dull to understand how deep and intricate it is.[/quote] Or it's just not his cup of tea, books speak to people in different ways...Or not at all. Doesn't mean they are dull, it just doesn't talk to them right. OT: Forum popularity, and "guides", I always found a bit strange and taboo. Post cause you want to, not cause you want people to remember you from a truck load of posts you make a day.
-
I'd rather take advice from someone who is actually popular...
-
[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Connor Kenway 99 show the flood a good amount of pics and post often like an attention whore.[/quote] Posting often and contributing to the occasional picture thread warrants the title "attention whore?" Interesting, I've achieved that title many times over, it seems!

It was poorly written, the characters were idiotic stereotypes at best, and most of the character development was little more than manipulative button-pushing. But I'm getting off topic. I still find it hilarious that you've been here two months, nobody likes you, and yet you seem to be a judge of how to achieve popularity on this forum. [Edited on 12.26.2012 8:55 PM PST]
