    Forum Famous

    This may sound odd(it's a genuine hope though)...but I want to be forum famous.

    Any forum frequenters have tips for me, so that I can be an avid poster and followed/adored by many on this forum?

    Thanks in advance.

    You wanna know who the most well known people are on here?

    People we hate.

    After that it's people we like individually. You are not on this list.

    Post a lot of bait threads and keep getting banned. You will soon be forum famous.

    That or this thread will get popular and you will just be known as the low "I wanna be famous on an internet forum" person.

    This is a bait thread. You're doing fine!

    Okay, I actually take issue with this thread being reduced to a bait thread given my genuine interest in being established in the forum community. The urban dictionary definition says designed to "provoke a reaction", but aren't all posts written to ask the community for feedback and their reaction...?

    I think that's illegal. I want to be ethical in becoming popular here.

    I know he exist yes, but I am am never sure if it is him because he changes his avatar so much. And pretty only know him because of the halo effect.

    And because I hate when people do it.

    A plain white box might be a good medium.

    Yes, but as topics go... this is so uninteresting and unimportant, that you're just inviting trolls to have a bit of fun in here. Hence the baiting. Either that, or you're 8 years old and... have never seen the internet, never visited a foru... oh why do I keep writing. :P

    I actually disagree because I think perhaps it will be useful information for future new forum users that want to gain traction...it's interesting and important if you want to learn how to navigate forums.
