This thread = win

Oh and yes I hate when people put several pictures in a post, then one person quotes him, then another, and so on and so forth and pretty soon, it takes 5 minutes to scroll through a few messages, just because of all the ones with 3 or 4 pics in them. :x

[QUOTE="Theokhoth"]I don't need a catchphrase.8)Nagru

I'd ascribe your popularity to:

-Number of Posts

-Quality of Posts

-Memorability of Sig/Avi

-Simple, but different & memorable name.

-Respect/Kindness for others

Remove any two of these factors, and your popularity will probably go down.

Awesome.:D

I don't want to sound mean, but you seem to be a bit too conceited lately, despite your awesomeness. Your Posting a New Thread Instruction thread was good, this just seems to be spouting out everything you do right...

Video_Game_King

While perhaps true (I haven't seen you around very much) he's not the only popular poster here of course.

To adress you personally though. My apolgies if I'm cruel: Your missing some key elements in my list:

-Memorability: Your sig/avi don't strike me as being very memorable. There's nothing very eye-catching there. A more proffessional or simpler look could help for the sig, as for the avatar I can't really help you.

-Name: While you can have a very complicated name and still be popular, it's not helping you to be a 'household' (If that could even apply to OT) name. Yours is long enough to cause the end to be cut off when I see it, and the 'blandness' and underscores in it aren't helping either.

-On the plus side you do have; Seniority (When you've been here long enough people just know you), you seem to be kind, and you certainly have enough posts. I can't really comment on the quality of them, but do know that intelligence, humour, and wisdom are all important aspects.

Sorry if some of that hurt, but I was just being honest. Have a cookie if it makes you feel any better :D

*Hands you cookie*

Man, I have none of those qualities. I don't have a memorable Sig or avatar, I stop using green font because found it annoying and I barely post humorous commentary. I have no chance.:(

You need a niche here. Maybe you can do something like provide a thread where people ask a certain user different questions. It could be weekly.
