<p>^^ Pssshh, Nice_try…</p>

<p>(haha?)</p>

4

<p>Ask politely?</p>

5

<p>Pay them…?</p>

6

<p>lol!! nice link!</p>

<p>I remember when I was in the library (I think I was in the science and mathematics section but now I’m not so sure…) I saw that book and started reading… ya… wow… lol. </p>

<p>If you’re on CC, just bring up how much you absolutely adore AA and there will be plenty of hate to go around, lol.</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>1) Post interesting things.
2) Post lots of them.
3) Be brief.</p>

9

<p>Give me candy and maybe I’ll tell you.</p>

10

<p>You don’t care about replies.</p>

11

<p>mention afirmative action in the title whether or not your post is actually about affirmative action</p>

12

<p>Also, if you’re asking for advice (say, on a chances thread), it helps to grovel and say “thank you” every other sentence. (If only to bump the thread.)</p>

13

<p>They don’t reply to my posts. Most of my threads are failures. :D</p>

14

<p>yeah right chaos</p>

15

<p>No, Chaos replies to his own…</p>

16

<p>so. i have like 20 different usernames, and whenever one of my threads looks like a failure, all i do is use them, and after you have like 14 posts, people decide to read it (like the impossible quiz one, i had to create my own conversation for other people to interupt!)</p>

17

<p>I usually reply to the replies of my posts and that way my post count goes up, and more people read my threads. You can also take some liberties as to where you post certain things, like posting something on the search and selection board instead of the chances board because you’re more likely to get replies there.</p>

<p>I’ve tried telling people outright to reply to my posts, but that doesn’t work.</p>

18

<p>I title things “pr0n”</p>

<p>^ why wouldn’t you call it p0rn… that would make a lot more sense.</p>
