About being popular....

Postby bossedit8 » Tue Sep 30, 2014 6:48 am

Good point actually, since even know my English isn't all that the best we can read and see even to this day, Peoples tends to like how I am around on this Forum and on YouTube. It doesn't really needed to be Popular to begin with. There are Members who just want to be popular on certain stuff he makes but on my opinion that is not the point here. It is just as of how you are like you have said.

To become popular:
1. You have to be in the community for a while and make a lot of posts so that people know you exist.
2. Be nice to people, appeal to people, try to make someone like you.
3. Do something while you are here, don't just make useless posts, you can create levels and custom graphics to contribute to the community so that people will remember you.
4. Have similar interests as other users on this forum, like music, games, and other topics.

At least that's what I think it takes to be popular here.

your popularity at this forum is directly proportional to the quality of your work, your time at the forum, and your ability to communicate well

You would have to be a shitty human being to think that to be good you have to be popular.

That's ironic. I'm sure you suddenly shot to renewed fame when you were on SMBX:Revived because you were reghrhre's girlfriend. You were originally known as megafrog, and a lot of people barely knew you, and now you're crazy popular, and this crazy popularity started over on Revived.

But on the topic in hand, you only get popular if you actually participate in the community activities, such as official level contests and non-SMBX contests, such as Pokemon battles between members. You need to be recognised as a "true" SMBX community member if you want to be popular, and that includes things like socialising with other members, reviewing levels, and community activities like those mentioned above, SMBX or not. Becoming friendly can help as well, as does posting a lot of constructive posts so everyone will know you.

No, of course. You can be a good user without being popular just like me. You are a popular user if your name is recognized a lot on the forum and to make this happen, you have to be active and make a lot of good works.

Assumptions like this are what separates the good users from the bad.

Most everybody knows me here. It's because I've been here long enough that I have a sort of legacy going on with me. Notice how I am pointing out how silly you think you have to attention whore to be a good user, and I can name plenty of people who wouldn't describe me as such. It's not about being a model upstanding citizen, it's about giving a hoot and mingling.

To be fair, being popular means that a lot of people know who you are, so it doesn't necessarily connect to being a good user (cough cough)

But the only thing that matters is that you're still popular. You were the girlfriend of one of the leaders in the SMBX community, and as soon as everyone found out about your relationship with reghrhre, you surged up in popularity and I don't know why you got yourself a special rank "Lyranische Allianz" but it might have something to do with your relationship.

This thread is also awfully similar to this one that I made five months ago, even though this is a slightly different topic, but they're similar.

Nobody is really popular on these forums, I see everybody as equal really, since everybody knows everybody practically. I mean there are a few "who are you again" moments for me, but that's only with the people that visit every 2 years and barely post at all, I think you guys call them "lurkers". Other than that I pretty much know everybody on these forums, which makes it for a much more pleasant time here.
