Young Writers Society

I have to say I don't think I've done myself much favours in the popularity departnment in TYWS . Whereas on TYWC I seemed to be liked more (maybe because I'd been there since 1999).

I wonder if it was because I jumped into debate and serious dicussion too quickly? Or tended to find the lounge slightly overwhelming so didn't post often in it. Or maybe I need to review more?

Anyway this sorry state of affairs, of well not being liked here is getting me down a bit.

So this isn't a 'feel sorry for myself' post. It's a productive, what the hell should I do to make myself involved post.

Any suggestions truely taken with gratitude!

I like you Midnight! Well, what little I've seen of you anyway.

Yes, you probably should post in the Lounge cuz it's fun! And more people will know you exist.

Another thing is join chat as often as you can if you have the time. That will most definitely improve your social status here on YWS. Now that you can't see who's on chat, just join even if you're all alone for a while. Make sure to open it in a new window(right click it) so that you can still browse YWS.

I don't know about the whole debate thing, because I mainly just lurk there and hardly ever post anything since I'm an idiot.

Another thing I almost forgot: Join a usergroup that interests you, or post an idea in the Information and Advertising forum. Just look in Usergroups(duh!)

I can fllllllyyyyyyyyyyyyy

No I can't....

You are liked here! To get more noticed just send in more posts! YEY!

Well I like arguing with you, and you have a good music taste, and you're english, so I like you.

But maybe you should go crazy and post a lot. Like me. Then people couldn't fail to notice me!

Aww sheesh

honestly didn't put this up to get compliments but they were much appreciated anyways.

See these are all good plans..so, so far debating is good, lounge needs to be more is the gist.

jesus don't think I could ever make 1000 posts! My fingers would fall off.

Popularity! *chuckles* No, I will resist hijacking this thread...

Ummm... Just be different. Be likable. But don't be too gimmeattentionnow! Act yourself, and I'm sure you will do fine!

that's comforting ok points all taken on. Actually been doing loads of reviewing recently. Partly because i'm saving up for a dress hah!

I like ya!

I know it probably does not come off sounding that way in the Debate thread, but anyone who loves to argue is alright by me. I actually thinking something like 95% of my friends are on the complete opposite side of the political spectrum when compared to me...

Aw tah Brian. really? See I think most of my friends are lefties like me...

I love people with strong opinons... I think that maybe people just dont notice you as much... but then again, who am I to talk> No one notices me..maybe post in the lounge...

You're very noticed, you're everywhere honestly! Yeah I think I should post in the lounge, it seems like loads of people hang around in the tavern, maybe I should post more there?

People post everywher... Usually they like you if you give them constructive critisism (I hoop I'm not repeating anything but I was to lazy to read.)
Furthermore it is good to not have enemies or they might turn their friends against you. Which is too late for me.
YWS is more social than TYWC because of it's various chatting areas and the PM's add a special new touch to YWS....

Did you steal that topic line from Everclear? Cause if you did, thumbs up. They rock. And no one appreciates them very much around here... well, people that I know at least...

Blurg, well, welcome... I think I've seen you around but, yeah... hello.

TBR, Aww but PMs are what make me feel ever so disconnectred from the world of tyws. What is being said that u don't know!

Tessitore,ach no, I knew the line but couldn't remember where it was from. I don't know them unfortunately but would like to...?

hi midnight,
may be u just have to
keep talking about things that
interest people...u know?
people are only gonna give u an
eye when they see that u want to talk about what they are interested in.

mean while, we could be very good pals .
