10 ways to go Gonzo.

[thiosk]

Number '7' contains a list, and is improperly punctuated.

(see what i did thar?)

But i have a big kinda "who cares" to most people who concern themselves with things such as post counts.

 

[samsprinkle]

By following these tips, one can expect to be repeatedly punched in the crotch, with concrete gloves.

I prefer the +5 gauntelts of ogre power...

2. Post half your point; scoring post count +1's is for people without an opinion but when you have one remember to stretch it out. Breaking up your post into halves and quarters will garner double the results so feel free to make a post but before you post it, preview the post then use every sentence as a new post.

Haha! Post count plus one! Furthermore I would argue that.... (to be continued in next post)

 

[Fightgarr]

Nah, I want to know how to get 5,000+ posts like Root.

*SNIP*

Question: Did you do this to get +1 post count or perhaps a badge? How did you make 614 meaningful posts in less than 2 months?

I think I try to make my posts a little TOO meaningful. I know it's not important, but look at my post count, and then look at when I joined.

 

[AdjectiveAnimal]

In before the lock!
EDIT: Finally able to use report button. Oh, and I actually did some of these without relizing it.

 

[Bulletinmybrain]

I so made all of my posts meaningful.

 

[Blind0bserver]

I find it hilarious that no one see's the satire in this. You all fail.

Except for some of you.

Oh, I see the thinly veiled satire in this, I just choose to despise him and say he's a piece of human debris anyway.

 

[Aiden Rebirth]

this is just silly who cares about post count?

 

[xitel]

Well, I will say that being a Gonzo isn't all that important. There are many folks I count among the ranks of Escapist stars that aren't Gonzos, and many that are Gonzos that I don't count as famous. We folks here care about quality over quantity. If you just said "bump" a thousand times, you would have a thousand posts. But people would hate you. The point is to be intelligent, friendly, and to contribute to conversations. If you like it here, and spend enough time, the Gonzo will come naturally, but you will be liked by your fellow Escapists well before that. Forcing the Gonzo defeats the purpose of trying to gain fame through it.

8. Correct someone's grammar but don't reply to the actual topic.

9. Appeal to other posters egos. Just post a bunch of threads asking other posters what is their favorite style of hair, shoes, carpet, rusty nails etc. As long as you get them talking you can occasionally chirp in agreeing with their taste for free post.

That was excellent, your a genius!

But really, very funny. It was more like a surefire way to get banned.

 

[Easykill]

I really hope that the target of this thread isn't the real Gonzos, because you've got it wrong if it is. There are plenty of people like that, but they don't usually make it to Gonzo, they either grow up, burn out, or get banned.

Damn... I was hoping this thread would be about porn... I love gonzo porn...

[Knight Templar]

I've been here for over 12 months, thats how I got gonzo.

 

[Say Anything]

Ehem...I'm proud that I've been here for 11 months and have under 50 posts. Unlike somebody who posted earlier in this thread that has 128 posts and has been here for two days...

._.

 

[Sewblon]

I only care about badges and making fanboys log off in infantile rage.

 

[Sackwak]

I've been here for over 12 months, thats how I got gonzo.

Ditto. Except about the Gonzo part
