Here's a helpful way to remember it.

A mom and her daughter are in their kitchen. The daughter's birthday is coming up.

Mom: "Who do you want to invite to your party?"
Daughter: "Kara."
Mom: "Kara... 'k and?"
[Daughter proceeds to name some more people.]

Actually that's pretty terrible I don't know what to tell you. I imagine the people here that don't call me Kara just copypasta my name.

I recognize quite a few people in this thread... But I had to reply to this.. because from the first time I read your user name .. this instantly popped into my head.

I remember you from the Super Smash Bros Brawl hype era. You frequently posted in that thread...then disappeared from that thread =P
Indeed. I didn't want to get spoiled on the secret characters as the release date came closer.


Also, never change your avatar, it's why you're easily recognisable.

I recognize heaps of avatars, and quite a few posters and their posting "style". I think I'm pretty low-key though, don't post all that often, and go for short, sharp posts rather than long narratives. I have to admit, I am sometimes guilty of the ":lol :lol That's hilarious!" post.
If it weren't for your Dick van Dyke avatars, maybe.

Never underestimate GAF's stalking skills. :O

You're prolly the most recognizable girl gaffer, since you post the most :lol

Also, your avatar makes me chuckle, the face the cat has is awesome 8<

You're scaring me :(

At least I'm not one of those people that click 'find all posts by x/find all threads started by x,' I find that infinitely more scary.

Although I have used it...once or twice. And you probably have too =P

what the fuck. lol. who comes up with this stuff? i never had any sort of breakdown, nervous or otherwise. i just stopped posting for a long time but eventually resumed with a much lower posting frequency. from time to time i also still do photoshops. albeit sometimes it's for a different message board :P

Oh okay that's good to know. I dunno man I think I read it while you were away or something. Can't remember. Although I do miss them awesome shops ^_^

Shhhh! don't tell!

:lol
 
i usually know those that have my same interests.. the NBA and NFL threads, then our Online madden/NBA/Ncaa seasons... those are who i know...
 
Skiptastic said:
If I ask if I'm known, does that make me an attention whore or just desperate for recognition? OR BOTH? :O

...I'm sorry what?
None of them. I recognize you because of your Pikachu avatar (even though I dislike that yellow rat) <3

I just don't see much point to the GAF baseball threads, it's not really a place for actual baseball discussion or analysis. Mainly it's a game thread for fans of the most popular/rich teams, who don't really know much about other teams. "Melky Cabrera hit a double, yay!" I really don't need to read that.
I can see that... I like making fun of those teams though so it's not too much of a hassle for me. The other problem is that most of the statheads are usually on the same page with each other on issues so the only discussion that really takes place is eviscerating the silly things non-statheads say.

I've always wondered if that map name is an incorrect transliteration of my handle... they both would look exactly the same in Arabic script (abjads FTL)... but given that it's a video game I'm guessing they probably made up some random Middle Eastern sounding name.
 
Tntnnbltn said:
I always think of you as Kittonwy Junior, purely for the avatar.

Same. :lol

Apparently I'm a dumb quirk that likes to act like an oblivious kid. Personally, I don't see it.

Wish someone could answer this for me, even though I'm probably more well known in Gaming.

You're not a kid, Andrex? :O
Kidding, kidding!

no you don't...-hypnotoad-

Who are you again?
 
I'm going to guess that I'm fairly under the radar, despite my best efforts to be a quality contributor.

I've noticed that people who make threads often are most likely the most recognizable.

The only time I don't recognize someone is when they haven't posted for years or they are new, and they stick out to me as foreign when I can't peg their username or avatar.

I spose I recognize just about everyone in the OT that I've been in the same thread with. Recognize at least that they exist. Whether or not I remember their personality or posting habits is another story.
 
I think I'm a virtual unknown (pardon the pun). I purposely don't really mix in with any debate that's going on (both on the Gaming side and OT). I've never felt comfortable doing that anyway, not even on messageboards. But I'm fine with that, I don't feel the need to put myself in the spotlight.
 
I'm pretty sure most people don't notice me, and those who do probably think I'm an annoying jerk :lol :_(
On the other hand, I recognize almost everybody on this thread :D specially the posters I like, like btk, blackace, koshiba, zoku88, scribble, rezbit, rewrite, amishnazi, halycon, timedog, aeana, sporks... etc... the list goes on, I love these forums tbh.

:O I love you too. <3 <3 <3

And RubxQub...if I recall...I was the first person to ever say that I loved your avatar! ;D
 
Shoogoo said:
I assume I'm pretty much transparent.

I was in a game with Amir0x, F#A#Oo and RubxQub yesterday. My gamertag is the same as my name here, Shoogoo. Someone asked me;

"What's your name on Neogaf?"
"Shoogoo"
"Ah..."

:lol
If I could have seen your avatar I'd have known :(

The lolwut pear is very distinguishing. Sorry dude! Won't happen again :D

Rewrite, yep! You and Scarlett are the reason I'm still using the cube-a-tar. Although I think Scarlet hates me now because I was kinda being an ass about the usage of a headset while playing online gaming in a gaming thread :lol
 
I would sell the meats and bones of all of you at my local meat market if I could.

edit: except for gaimeguy, #ga's own cum guzzling lolita
 
DMeisterJ said:
I don't think I've been here long enough to make any kind of impact. I'm sure almost no one knows me, lol.

Didn't I make fun of you for being a virgin or something and said something like you were going to be a creepy stalker with the first girl you slept with? It was all good fun but seriously, you are probably going to hover around her six months after she let you go.

Apparently, I'm recognizable enough for people to point in my direction when somebody goes to Spain and wants to have some fun.

You've also made me a regular customer at bustedtees. :D

I recognise most posters in this thread. I have no idea as to my own status.

You're the hardcore metal audiophile.

I categorize you as such because you get defensive about your audiophilia, but otherwise seem knowledgable.

He's not the only person that uses a lolwut pear as his avatar.
 
I think I'm rather well known from Gaf-Sports, although, admittedly, I am the worst contributor on any of them. I'm usually either talking about unrelated shit or cracking jokes about how fat players or trying to start mini-memes. Oh God... what have I become?!?!?!

You can still change! It is not too late!

Your retarded.

That's one of the shirts I've been thinking to buy, but now I have the Dramatic Chipmunk, Greece, Goodbye Elliott and LMAO shirts.

I've at least seen the foreign lolwut pear before, but now you're making me think that I've been considering the two posters as the same person.

I coulda swore normal lolwut pear was turned into foreign lolwut pear at some point (I even recall some posts discussing the foreign writing?).

Bah!
 
Well, I stop and pop in most threads. Most of my replies are pretty succinct although I have a feeling a I post in a manner that is sometimes esoteric in all the wrong ways (in terms of it being e-soteric as opposed of esoteric. I'd say my only regular thread is College Football, maybe NBA, and I'm good for most threads, at least for a comment or two. Also, I know the people in this thread I recognize, probably, to an extent recognize me (if not for posting, then my avatar).



In terms of other's noteriety, I know a reasonable amount of people by avatar and such, and I tend to actually read their posts more regularly (if I'm scrolling) for this reason.

The other people I notice are the one's that make bad threads, or simply come to the party with bad taste in any subjective artistic medium thread.



I hate my handle for one. I applied for GAF at least a year, maybe two before I got accepted here, then waited (because I had forgot about GAF) so my handle when I became accepted was off base. FYI - my interest in Deftones was waning at the time of handle creation, I only did it because it was just consistent with other things (email etc.).
 
As someone who's job it was to notice people on this board, I have to say you guys stick out a lot more than you think you do. Yes even the noobs.

I've always just imagined that all of the mods had a master list of usernames with adjectives and anecdotes about everyone, or were taking notes directly onto our accounts in some field that was only viewable to mods/admins.

...I also remember when you went blue, and it made me weep a bit.

Ehe no harm done ;) And yeah it won't happen again, especially if you guys invite me in another l4d versus where I'm against 4 gaffer, teaming with jerks that kick my ass for some reason lol.

:O

I should change my avatar soon. Had it for a while.

Most of the people I recognize are from WFC irc, mods, or some of the OT all-stars that post in nearly every thread regardless of topic.
