Topic: Popularity contests... | |

It's up to you though. I make a lot of posts, and have made some awesome friends, but I don't know if I'd be considered popular or not. That's an interesting point -- how do you determine who's popular and who's not? I mean, theoretically, you could have someone who had made many posts but who people didn't particularly like. So I don't know that number of posts is an indicator of popularity -- longevity, maybe, or long-windedness, sure, but not necessarily popularity. |

how can you have a popularity contest on a site with 200 active members?

I mean, not too many people genuinely are interested in attention whores.
i think there's a huge difference between being popular and being an attention whore. one comes naturally, the other is strived. |

Good point, Lex...it's all about the quality..not the quantity! |

Is there really anything to be gained by seeking to be popular on an internet site? Sincere question here... Trying to be "popular" in any community usually is a wasted effort in my book. Blending in, expressing yourself, not saying anything that is too stupid or makes you look like a creep is probably going to help more than being popular. I see having my name on popularity "lists" is usually more harm than good. |

Good point, Lex...it's all about the quality..not the quantity! Yeah, I mean, think about it: When I think of this site, there are certain people whose names, pics, posts, etc., immediately spring to mind. There are people who, in my mind, sort of "represent" this site -- not officially, but as "standards," I guess you could call it. And some of these people I consider friends, and I make an effort to read anything and everything they write. And others I really don't interact with much at all, but they've established a presence here and I'm aware of them. Who's "popular" with me might not be the same as who's "popular" with you. I think it's better that way, too, otherwise it all gets a little too regimented for me.... |

I can count on not seeing certain people posting on any thread I create whether it's thought provoking or silly. Doesn't matter.... They're boycotting me! |
