Lyris - Kitty gets actual likes. Your alliance friends like you for your ability to spam an entire thread with senseless crap because you have absolutely no idea how to put multiple quotes in a single post.

It is not just my alliance members who like my posts. I am in a +rep circle-jerk with many of the CAOD and C+P regulars, and there are also many individual and unaffiliated people whom have decided to give me likes for my posts. Just today I got a mail from a fan telling me how much he or she enjoyed my thread about suicide gank fits. Having a negative attitude like yours—though wonderfully ironic given your statement in this same post about someone else's positive attitude—is not the way to become space popular, my friend. It is by being informative, entertaining and amicable that you get to be friends with everyone.

Wouldn't you just love to be my friend and join the +rep circle-jerk?


LOL how sad are you

Also, don't keep a full +5 set on the same clone. Just have the two you are currently training. Learned my lesson when I lost a full +4 set while I was idling outside Dixie

I've been living in a WH which kind of makes jumping around a bit more involved.

He does certainly know how to do this, but splitting them up provides several benefits:

1) Individual quotes are directly and clearly addressed, leaving fewer opportunities for misunderstandings that multi-quoting in single post might allow.

2a) By individually quoting and responding, he increases his post count much more efficiently than by simply quoting and responding to the various people in a single post.

2b) As a consequence of 2a, by generating significantly more posts with this simple method of individual quotation, you are then able to acquire many more "likes". As each character can only "like" a post once, by creating many more separate posts, you have thus dramatically increased the ability of your post-reading fans to bestow their "likes" upon you as they see ft.

These of course are just a few very simple ways of improving one's posting status, and at the end of the day, we can look to Lyris' number of likes and think "Maybe, some day, when I'm a bit less of a bad poster, I can be liked as much as that." With this basic framework, you've started that journey.


Spam. It is called spam.

I would much rather not be any-part of anything related to Goons. Sorry, it is nothing against you personally. Just the ethics of the Federation itself.

Reminds me of a former corp mate who, as he was planning his route back out to nul, got suicide ganked in hisec. Boy was he pissed.

+1 for good attitude.
