I guess I should post more, but I'd rather post when I have something actually constructive to say.

Only other people can tell you if you're well-known.

Post by: perihelion on September 01, 2007, 03:18:29 pm
[shrug]  I rather doubt people recognize me.  I've been around for almost two years, but I tend to hold my tongue unless I've got a question or the discussion touches on something in which I'd consider myself well educated.  I'm honest enough to admit the latter doesn't happen all that often.

Well, I'll also speak up when I think someone really deserves kudos for something like releasing an awesome campaign.

If you are known as a douchebag, it tends to lead to the fact that you are known. Well known, even.
As for myself, I haven't got a clue. Most of the time it feels as if even I don't know myself.
Title: Re: Do you think you are well known here?
Post by: Herra Tohtori on September 01, 2007, 03:35:52 pm
Hohoho. It's another poll.

I have a question, though. Known, as in "If the HLP forumites were asked to name ten most known HLP members, I would be on that list" or, known as in "oh, it's that one again..."? So basically, difference between active and passive memory.

First - I highly doubt it. Second, more likely. So I voted "don't know". :p

Pretty good... I recognized the names of everyone here except Dark_4ce and Trayus; I might have seen them before, but I can't be sure.  And, I post enough, and my signature is so long that it is impossible to look through the forums without running across it!  :p  I have a long tail.  XD
Title: Re: Do you think you are well known here?
Post by: Flipside on September 01, 2007, 08:56:32 pm
Don't draw too much attention to your tail, HLP has pruning shears, and they often don't use anaesthetic ;)

That said. at least in your defence most of the stuff in your sig is actually useful.
Title: Re: Do you think you are well known here?
Post by: akenbosch on September 01, 2007, 09:32:04 pm
whats the sig limit? and why arent dekkers/mobius's sigs pruned yet?
Title: Re: Do you think you are well known here?
Post by: Flipside on September 01, 2007, 09:45:13 pm
I think it's pretty fluid, it's really an Admin thing, not a Moderator one as such. Though I'll accept your argument that both Decker and Mobius really should try compacting their siggies a wee bit. Even ngtm1r and Tyrian have a bit of a weighty sig.

I think the general rule is 'Don't let your sig get longer than your average post.'

It's been argued that people can turn off signatures if they want to, but that means you lose the useful stuff like the links to Kara's FAQ as well as the quotes etc, personally, I'd much prefer if people moderated their own siggies than force Admin to go around pruning them and causing bad feeling.
Title: Re: Do you think you are well known here?
Post by: akenbosch on September 01, 2007, 09:48:30 pm
maybe down that 9999 character limit too something like 500.

I just crashed a phpbb board by posting the first million digits of pi. think smf would follow suit?
Title: Re: Do you think you are well known here?
Post by: jr2 on September 02, 2007, 12:45:15 am
Nope.  There's a post char limit.

Anyways, I do really wish they'd make a collapseable sig mod for SMF.  And, the char limit in siggys is 2,000.

We don't have avatars. We can't have "long sigs". Mah :doubt:

Post by: Snail on September 02, 2007, 06:09:50 am
I've tried to make my signature smaller by making the text smaller. I even tried superscript once but that didn't work out well...

I guess I'll have to make my average post length a bit longer. ;)

For Trayus, i remember thinking about it during Latin class and wondering if the feminine could be Traya.

Eeeek!  I just tried to shrink my sig text by using [/size] tags.  I put in a size of 6 and it made each letter an inch high!  How do you shrink the size of the text in your sig?

A mod or a Admin could nuke your sig, free of charge.

Considering I've recognized everyone here except for two or three super-lurkers, I would think that I'm just as recognizable.

So I voted Yes. :p

That is sort of the origin.  There is a Darth Traya in KOTOR II.  I simply took my name from her academy.  Plus it sounded cool at the time.

If I'm not recognizable now, it means my job of pissing off half of the forum has failed.
