Poll: Would you consider yourself a regular here on the escapist?

[The Artificially Prolonged]

When I first signed up I was more of lurker who only really came here for the video content. However now I would consider myself a regular here as I always have a tab of The Escapist open on the computer and while I'm still not the most prolific poster, do post in a few threads and I'm fairly active in a couple of user groups.

 

[Erana]

I don't really care about those things anymore; I have made some great friends from here, and hope this website and community thrives, with or without me being at the forefront.

 

[Guffe]

1) Yes
2) Yes

I've been here for 3 years now
Posting nearly every day in some thread, watching shows and enjoying myself discussing football in the user group about the Barclays Premier League user group

 

[Andalusa]

No and no to both, which is a shame.
I was extremely active about 2 years ago and now I'm just... drifting I guess. I pop in from time to time, if I see something interesting I'll comment but that happens very rarely.
I made a decent group of friends on here, now we communicate via Twitter, texts and even face-to-face this place has become mostly redundant to me.

1. Yes, but only when I am sporting a Mao avatar. People don't even realize I am Fappy if I don't have Mao with me.

But of course people recognise the Daedric Prince of Pussy!

OT: Fairly regular.

As for how well known I am, you guys tell me?

I do know a few people have taken notice of my Senji avatars.

 

[Da Orky Man]

I doubt anyone would recognise me here, as I rarely post any forceful opinions and my avatar changes fairly often, but I would indeed describe myself as an active member. This place is basically my home in the internet, sheltered from the howling wastes of Youtube comments and protected from the bands of roaming trolls that infest other, less savoury forums.

 

[thesilentman]

Yeah and yeah. It's more in Forum Games, when I don't shut up. But out here, no one knows me. :-(

 

[necromanzer52]

Recognized? No. I doubt anyone recognizes me.

I recognise you. I mean, I don't remember anything you've said, but I've definitely seen that avatar around.

As for me, I spend a ridiculously large amount of my time on the escapist, but I mostly only post if I feel, I'm adding to the conversation, so my post count is much lower than other people who've been here for about the same length of time.(I'm currently on track to getting the Neo badge in the year 2020). So I doubt anyone would recognise me.

I'm open to be proven wrong...someone?...anyone?

If it's any consolation, I recognize you as well. I usually remember names better than avatars. ^^

Never heard someone say that before. The vast majority of the time, I only pay attention to the avatar, meaning the people I recognise the least are the people that keep changing theirs. For instance, I recognise sassafrass's new avatar, but until this very thread, I didn't recognise it as sassafrass, because he'll always be the Dr. Cox guy to me.

 

[Beffudled Sheep_v1legacy]

1) Probably not. I mostly post in a couple user groups and avoid posting in the forums as much as I can. I love reading the forums but posting, eh.

2)I've been coming here everyday since sometime in 2008 barring days I've had no internet so I'd say I'm pretty active. I don't go one day without posting at least 3 times in the forums and quite a bit more in user groups so yeah, active

I don't need to be a Daystar, Sassafrass, Vault or MaxTheReaper to be happy with my level of activity and notoriety

 

[Snotnarok]

I visit a few times per day so that qualifies as a regular visitor


Active? Sorta? I don't really participate out of the regular forums here. I actively get people annoyed when I say I don't enjoy certain games. Does that count?

 

[Sexual Harassment Panda]

1: Not really. I think that I mostly fly under the radar.

I've been consistant with my avatar though, that might help. I know it helps me remember others.

2: Yes, though I do more lurking than I do posting.

 

[Rylingo]

1: Do you consider yourself a recognized member of the escapist?

Nope. Outside of the user review forum I'd say I'm pretty much an unknown.

2: Do you consider yourself to be an ACTIVE member of the escapist?

I don't post a lot. I mainly lurk in the off topic section.

 

[Fijiman]

1. In the forum games I'm fairly well known, but the other forums? Fuck no. Though I do hope that my avatar is somewhat recognizable due to it being the only one (that I know of) on the Escapist that is identifiable as sideways.
2. I am fairly active, but again that's only really in the forum games.

 

[Eggsnham]

I chose one of the random options.

I've definitely been here for a while, but I have a habit of dropping in and out of regularity on the Escapist. I suppose I've been lurking more than anything else lately, I might occasionally post a thread or reply to one (like so), but for the most part I just sort of hang out and observe.

 

[Ashhearth]

Recognized obviously no lol my post count is terrible for my number of years here. I'm usually pretty closed about opinions and whatnot and prefer to see what others say(not all too different from how I am elsewhere).

As for Activity I come on the site several times a day just to check up on stuff and read news articles or the features. I also watch a fair amount of the content that comes in video form because I find it a good way to just relax.

 

[floppylobster]

1. Doubt I'm recognized.

2. I consider myself active. I come here pretty much everyday but I only post in a topic if I find it interesting or original. So it's usually one or two a day. (slightly under one if you divide the number of days I've been here by my post count.)

I recognize a few others though. Mainly through their avatars. So don't change them or I won't know who you are!

 

[lRookiel]

As for how well known I am, you guys tell me?

I do know a few people have taken notice of my Senji avatars.

*looks up senji* Deadman wonderland huh, might have to watch that. It looks pretty cool

Oh and we all know and love you Binnsy :3

 

[SextusMaximus]

Not recognised at all I don't think. Active, yes!
