This is your fault. I didn’t start sending hate mail until you went and got yourself married. (Lol. BTW, I was reading through some old zombie threads. I came across one started by you that said something to the effect of “I’m never going to get married.” It gave me quite a giggle.)
Seriously tho’, Up thread I posted: “0 people know me.” I was being facetious when I said that. I regret doing that now because as someone else said; A lot of you folks are seriously under estimating your popularity here on the Dope.
I’m mostly one of those completely forgettable posters, but I put myself in the 3-10 range because I’ve been to a few dopefests and I’d like to think that a couple of people from there at least remember who I am. Outside of dopefests, I think there’s maybe one or two people on here who recognize my name.
If I’m more popular than that, then you guys have all been hiding it from me pretty well.
I think this is probably the real answer. Maybe not 500, but I bet getting 100 people to recognize your name after more than a couple of years of steady posting on a board this size would not be that difficult.
I don’t know that I’m popular per se, but in terms of name recognition I imagine 100+ is likely after nearly a decade of posting.
Well, that’s sweet but I really do have a shit load of hate mail from this place. I think I have a posting style that just makes some people get all stabby. I’m not too worried about it as IRL I have a few people that I make stabby too! Fortunately, it’s heavily outmatched by people who actually kind of like me.
As to you - well obviously your number isn’t 0 - you’re quite ubiquitous around here! Also, pretty likable, generally.
I think that after my controversial “no more sex before marriage”? post, there are quite a few who would recognize my name. Between that and my insane boss threads, I think I’m at least at the 20+ category.
Even though I’ve been here since almost the beginning I’m pretty sure I stay under the radar. I used to be more active, when the community was a little more close-knit (or at least smaller). I got into some heavy debates with posters who are no longer here (John-John, Satan, etc.) and I was the first one to call out JDT for his shtick.
But now? I typically just weigh in on a couple of sports threads, anything to do with Asian movies, a few other things.
I’m in the middle somewhere. It’s not that I’m known for my profound posts, but, but I’ve been on the boards since the AOL days. I suppose some of you have seen posts by me.
