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] CrazyT [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Garem I am not a new member.[/quote]Care to disprove your own join date with a different account?[/quote]He has another account. I won' say though, but he has another one, and he's been here for a [i]very[/i] long time.

This is great.

Is OP Holden Caulfield? Who uses the word "phony" anymore?

Coup is bad.

So, I should listen to someone that has been here for little over a month on how to become popular? Honestly, I come here not looking for popularity but because I find the threads people here make interesting and sometimes funny.

This is about the new members I'm trying to help.[/quote]As far as some people are concerned, you are a new member.[/quote] lolno[/quote]Care to explain, or are you going to spout nonsense?[/quote] Explain what? I thought that the two points I brought up ("lol" at my initial response to your statement, and "no" as a denial of it) were enough. But let me put it clearer: no, I am not a new member.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Stark There are several things here up for discussion, such as: 1. How you bumped a dead thread. 2. How your advice is rule breaking. 3. How you think you're popular when only two or three people know who you are. [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Garem Once again, I appreciate your input on the guide itself, but that's not what we're discussing here. [/quote][/quote] 1. I didn't. 2. K 3. This isn't about me. This is about the new members I'm trying to help.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Gaara444 It's not useful at all. You literally told people to break the rules. The mods aren't going to keep a rule breaking thread because it's funny. You're giving horrible advice. [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Garem I added three more steps. Whether or not [i]you[/i] think this guide is useful is irrelevant.[/quote][/quote] Once again, I appreciate your input on the guide itself, but that's not what we're discussing here.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Gaara444 What information? You're not popular. What experience do you possibly have to bring to the table? You're only a month old. [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Garem If updating a thread with new information is bumping it, then way more people on the Flood than me are guilty of it. [/quote][/quote]I added three more steps.

Why should I listen to a well known FGTs alt? I mean seriously?!

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Gaara444 It can be one or the other. It doesn't have to be both. You're thread was off the first three pages for a few days, it was long dead. If you want me to really be a dick I can also say that because it was off the even the top page there was no discussion going on. You posted to bring it back up. That's necrobumping and is against the rules. [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Garem See, there's two things that are needed for a bump. 1.) The thread has to be dead. 2.) It must not create any discussion. This morning, the thread was not dead. So it wasn't a bump. [/quote][/quote] If updating a thread with new information is bumping it, then way more people on the Flood than me are guilty of it.
