    (That's how I did it.)

    Though, as of late, the forums and chat seem a bit separated, don't see many forumgoers in the chat and viceversa.

    I'd say posting, and being a noteworthy poster is the best way to get noticed around here. You can't just be a generic lump.

    Why try to get into the EoFF community fast? Not arguing, just hoping that people become known because they are making friends with the other members and contributing to the site/forums and not trying to become popular and visible through any means possible.

    Good posts, original threads, chatting in EoFF, IMs, New events and doing something hilarious... I can honestly say I've done none of these things, goes to show, eh? xD

    Post lots because I don't think anyone got as famous as The Man so quickly. Well actually he did the first three on that list. So maybe the answer is to do multiple things on that list.

    I don't think I've done anything on that list! So I have to go with Yes...or would that be No? There is no No.

    Where's the "spam the hell out of general chat and end up becoming best friends with Misfit and Psy" option?

    EDIT: Yes.

    EDIT:
    I like Kung-Fu.

    Um... Post a whole lot of conflict starting (Or hopefully finishing) posts?

    And try to make them look well thought out. Even if I'm just spewing 6 paragraphs per second.

    But I don't know. Pleanty of people must have seen my name at some point by now.
