Am I known?

Hey. Out of curiosity, am I well known on the GOF? Like, did you recognize me before you saw my name, by my avatar and/or sig?

Please tell the truth. I won't be offended if you don't know me.

You've only been here for 3 months and have made only 66 posts so.....no, I wouldn't say you're "well known". Normally post count doesn't matter, but when you have so few posts it does. It's not your signature, your avatar, or your personality. You have to give it time and post more before everyone knows things about you. I for one know practically nothing about you but in time when you start posting more you'll have more of a reputation and I'll have seen your interests a few times to remember something about you.

Not really.. You seem to like Jitterydragon's Youtube videos

Personally I'd guess I did not know you before you came here. But it is that way for me for everyone here.

Your known just a bit better now!

Seriously, it will be a little while... wait until your post count rises a bit, and try to be here on a regular basis.

Just post when you can to some threads that interest you the most. That is one way to do that.

I seem to recall you came here cause you knew someone else on the forum already. Lillefot, maybe. Is that right?

You can't let this sort of thing bother you. I've got almost 2,000 posts and I don't think many users know me very well. It's just an online forum, and the important thing is that we're LBT fans.

Well yes, I know the avatar and signature don't mean much. But users like Belmont2500 seem to be pretty well known, having maybe doubled my posts.

It doesn't matter that much, anyway. I guess it's only a matter of time.

Also, out of curiosity, what's the difference between Member and Member+? I'd say it's just Petrie, but it was there when I was Spike too.

Once upon a time, we were all merely members. Then the admins decided they only wanted users who were still active to be able to see things like After Midnight. So they made a new level, Member+, whose only requirement be that they post some point after the level was created. This prevents people who haven't posted since 2004 from seeing the new stuff in AM and places like that.

Ah. Thanks, that's good to know. I've wanted to ask, but I couldn't a topic that fits before now.

Kor · **Reply #11 on:** August 28, 2009, 03:36:45 PM

I'm sure any admin can give you the full details.

Mumbling · **Reply #12 on:** August 28, 2009, 04:34:35 PM

Yea. It just means you have a certain postcount so that you can see the AM section

Nobody here really knew me well before I had like 100 posts. After that I started adding members on MSN, which really helped me with getting to know them... And of course, they getting to know me.

I also felt more comfortable here after I did that and that's why I started posting more

Lilfut · **Reply #13 on:** August 28, 2009, 04:56:02 PM

Oh. Well, I don't have MSN...

I have Gmail Chat though.

Your known by those you know you, as Ruby would probably say

Kor · **Reply #15 on:** August 28, 2009, 05:45:39 PM

You can post in threads that interest you, and pm a few. Maybe im some you like talking to.

I think she'd say something more along the lines of "You're known by those that know you".

You'll have to post in threads or join in chats on MSN for people to know you, or for you to know them. It works both ways.
