You anger me.

The easiest way to get likes:
1) Become a staff member.
2) Go to a random thread and post anything (doesn,'t even have to be relevant).
3) Get 15 likes instantly
4) Repeat steps 2-4

I'm really confuzzled as to how people have 1,000+ likes. I've been playing on the server for three years, but I didn't join the forums until a year ago - Maybe I missed the forums better days? Am I just simply toxic?

So, I decided to do some investigating, and interview some of our most notable members:

I started with @Bubs , the newest helper and the lovable gorilla we've all known for a while:

Me: "How do you have over 1,000 likes? I'm genuinely curious as to how people do it."
SpookyBubs: "Mostly because of the content we post, we get tons of likes."

Next up was @Konohito , the moderator that everyone seems to know.

Me: "Ok: How have you [received] over 1,000 likes on the forums?"
Konohito: "Yes"
Me: "?"
Me: "How*"
Konohito: "I'm not sure"
Me: "Ok XD"
Me: "Would you mind me quoting you?"
Me: "I don't want to enrage anyone:
Konohito: "About?"

As you can see, my social awkwardness is definitely exerted into this conversation. W

Next up was @momand , the head priest/god of the newly reformed momand cult.

Me: "How did you achieve over 1,000 likes on the forums?"
momand: "i'm famous"

As you see, momand was too busy organizing sacrifices to give a detailed response.

Then came the over-salted cheesepuff, @Cheezipoofs

Cheezi: "F***, the porn scandal is out"
Cheezi: "run"
Me: "I'm just interviewing people who have 1,000+ likes"
Cheezi: "oh"
Cheezi: "actually my friend likespammed me to 1000 so i would post a selfie
Me: "Is that how you got 1,000 likes?"
Cheezi: "yepepyep"

As you can see, the Cheesepuff has been exposed. He's part of an organized crime group called the "Cheeseheads".

Then came @Wuffy_ the huggable wolf.

Me: "Can I interview you?"
Wuffy_: "For?"
Me: "I just want to ask a question and post your response on the forums"
Wuffy_: "Erm, what's the question?"
Me: "How did you gain over 1,000 likes on the forums?"
Wuffy_: "I've had my account ever since the forums opened, and I suppose posted things people liked"
...
Me: "Ok, Thanks!"
Wuffy_: "Sure c:"

Wuffy is friendly, but in this world of constant flame wars and strange people, who knows what he could be hiding under that fur coat.

Finally, I interviewed @TheIncendium

Me: "How did you achieve over 1,000 likes?"
Gamesphere: "A lot of sarcastic gifs.

We now all now that Incendium is an illegal gif dealer.

Based on these amazing interviews, I have created a formula for gaining 1,000 likes. It is as follows:

To get a thousand likes, you must post quality content, sell sarcastic gifs, be on the forums for a long time, and be part of an organized crime group, all unintentionally.

But now, in all seriousness, let's actually address this question. How do you gain 1,000+ likes?

This can easily be derived from not these peoples' responses themselves, but by the behavior they exhibited towards me. All five of the people I interviewed acknowledged me in a friendly matter, and had a great sense of humor. I actually ended up talking with a few of them for a while after I interviewed them.

All you need to get 1,000 likes is to be friendly, active, and enthusiastic. This may sound easy, but it really isn't. You have to be very committed to engaging with the community as well.

And to answer another question, no it isn't simply popularity. Sure, the most well-known members are definitely popular, but where do you think they got it from? This isn't high school. They simply gained their popularity and friends from their kindness and sincerity to others.

I know I'm nowhere near 1,000 likes or posts, but I hope to get there one day. Until then, and even after, I will stay committed and engaged in this community.

P.S.

I hope you enjoyed this post! I don't normally post threads like this, but I was bored, and it actually proved to be a lot of fun. If anyone actually reads this, and I haven't angered anyone, maybe I'll do more in the future.\

Thank you for reading,
Praetor
