What does it take to become "[in]famous" on AnandTech forums?

[T2T III]

Skywalker66 was pretty [in]famous during the past several months just because of his posts. Nobody could really believe how distorted his views were of relationships and women. To top it off, he attended a christian university and had some serious self-esteem issues.

Finally, in an attempt to find himself and rid himself of the addictions of ATOT, he posted lots of pr0n links to get himself banned. I couldn't believe what I was seeing here with his posts a few days back as it was all unraveling. Wow, just wow.

I forget who it was, but they posted a dissection of his personality that labelled him a narcissist, and I never really saw it until they pointed it out and I saw Skywalker's responses. They pegged it exactly.

i dont think i would be considered infamous... if so only for the fact that i am a girl and like to get a rise out of people (they get very very angry, its cute)

 

[CVSiN]

dont forget skywalker =P

Staley8 is famous b/c he is probably the coolest (and by cool I mean totally sweet) person in this entire universe since the beginning of time. We hang out in my pillow fort and eat spicy chili from bowls made out of diapers (new ones of course, not used) all day. He would wail on guitar HARD and I would find like a thousand babes for us to pork. We'd pop close to a million boners and then I'd tell him to friggin' book before my babysitter came back from the store....and not even think twice about it!!!!!

Yes please,
A ninja

Two of my threads lead to infamy, the collar one, and the mistaken for gay one. Both intended to be satirical and slightly self-deprecating. Backfired big time and I got flamed hardcore.

If people here judge me solely by those two threads I'm buggered.

 

[amoeba]

be a hot chick and post pics

 

[Furyline]

Infamous? Infamous!?!

I used to really enjoy reading Moonbeam's posts. I guess you just have to be consistently entertaining. Or el guapo.

No. Only in Zim's head for some unknown reason. I think it's the beer killing off his brain cells.

Try harder! :evil:

 

[CraigRT]

i really have no idea what it takes to become so well known here.... i would assume numerous amusing threads, and a more than 8 hours a day logged in status to AT.

 

[jtusa]

Skywalker is the only person who I've witnessed becoming famous.

Find the worst flamers... FelixTheCat for one. And there once was a real idiot like Felix, but I can't think of his name right now.....

 

[Storm]

My old thread on the subject

 

[Danman]

Throw bricks at trucks.

 

[Markfw]

Thats it, Intim83 !! The only idiot worst than Felix !

As frequently as I've managed to be banned, you'd think I was more well known:thumbsdown:
