LOL, seeing that statement with your avatar makes me think you're more unintentionally satirically hilarious than Bendis on Avengers:Disassembled.

Seriously, though - post here more. That said, don't get discouraged or lose heart that a bunch of people on the internet are giving you the attention you think you deserve. Assert your place on the 'net and on message boards and you'll do alright.

Not too discouraged, I'm still here. Just curious I guess.

I guess unintentionally I could be.
Wasn't trying, that's for sure.
Just a picture a friend sent me, maybe my subconscious was telling me to use it to try and stand out or something.

You just dont stand out as much as someone like jza1218

There's the aforementioned not posting in a long while thing but in addition to that, when you made your return you changed your name. Kind of like taking a long vacation and then coming back wearing a disguise. I knew who you were because of Myspace but I'm sure that all of that didn't help your recognition factor.

Honestly because you are probably a nice guy, who doesn't seek attention or fight with people. Most people notice jackholes and attention-seekers. Everybody else gets ignored.

I posted on the 'Rama for years, and nobody would even respond to my posts. But then I started behaving like an dick (jokingly), and people would notice me. :-D

I doubt that is possible.

What's the point of 'standing out' anyway? Are you looking for e-friends, friends IRL or people to visit a particular website?

I remember him vaguely as a poster at 'rama when I was first there. I'm not looking to replace someone. Just wondering if I don't stand out or something?

It's good to see you here.

I don't know, maybe it's striking a specific personality. Speaking for myself, my liberalism got me allies as well as people who always rolled their eyes at me. I remember also some thread where I was instrumental in making some good jokes about a troll (the name escapes me, but I remember his thing about being in a cafe with friends and making fun of us or something when it was only him).

Coming here, it was probably my inherent sexual innuendo and the whole anal bleaching thing. Maybe introducing Pablito to the Outhouse. Or that I try (big operative word) to bring the funny.

I also haven't been posting for a long while, so lots of people don't really know me.

Go with what you got. I do definitely remember you though. :-D

Even your disappearing for a year was schtick to get people to notice you!

Like I said, just something I was getting curious about. Even going back to before I quit posting on 'rama and changed my name I noticed it. I have friends here and there online and in person, that part I'm not concerned about, more like just wondering about how I feel invisible sometimes. I mean, hell, I had to post a picture of my crotch online to get any attention!! j/k
