Don't worry Johnny, I still remember you from the Pokemon forum games we had going awhile back! I really miss those days.
Hey man, me too. I think I killed the thread when I made it into Draw That Pokemon.
What's the statute of limitations on necro'ing a Forum Games thread anyway?

I recognize 43 of the people who have posted in this thread either by name, avatar, or both. I think most of the people who have more than 1000 posts are probably noticed WAY more than they think they are.

I'm extremely doubtful that anybody would recognize me considering how infrequently I post, but I do think if anyone did recognize me it would be for my avatar.

I don't anyone really recognizes me on here, mainly because I haven't really participated much or for long on the forums. I've visited The Escapist for years but just recently registered an account.
I recognize you from your posts in that thread on Sweden's potential sexism content advisory warnings. Your avatar seems fairly memorable to me.

Hero of Lime said:
I'm pretty sure I'm not well known amongst the regulars besides a few specific people. I am curious if people recognize my user name, or my avatar more. Admittedly, I know more users via their avatars, except for a few certain users who switch their avatars a lot, but post enough that I know their names.
I recognize your name more than your avatar, although I don't think you've changed your avatar since you've started posting here, but the pun in the name is more memorable to me.

Pretty sure I'm only recognized by people I've talked to before.
Didn't you used to be a mod back in the day? I seem to remember your name being in blue.

I'm pretty much a ghost unless I think I have insight on something that might actually change some opinions, then I'll comment. Also if there's ever a chance to complain about Chapter 4's escort mission in Resonance Of Fate, I will ALWAYS take that opportunity. Always. Surprisingly I get to complain about it more often than you'd think.

No one on the Escapist recognizes me because I'm usually a lurker and I can't keep the same avatar for more than a month.

Most people recognize others by their faces, and avatars are the faces of the internet. It's like changing your face every month!

Aren't we all >_>

OP: I recognize a fair bit of the posters in this thread, but I dunno how many recognize me. I'm probably recognized by the people stuck in the same forum role-play as me (pray for their souls, the poor saps) but other than that, I have little to no clue.

It ended a little more than a year ago, I have a feeling it would definitely be necro'ing at this point.

Yay! My stupid pun name is memorable to at least one person. :D

I recognize your avatar! I've seen you post enough recently to notice it.

I think some people recognize me? I'm not posting all the time, but I have been around for ages so yeah.

I hope people do I guess.

I don't exist and I pretty much never have.

Having an inability to make friends might be part of that.

A lot of the people on here who say that probably no one recognizes them, as a long time lurker, I do. Shit that sounds sinister.

Me? As a newbie no one will recognize me. But I rarely post and didn't join for a long time because almost anything I want to say is said better by someone else, so I never feel I can add to the discussion (present one discounted of course).

Oh woe is me...

Probably doesn't help that this is the first I've had in at least two years that isn't an anime girl.
Yes, definitely doesn't help - usually even though your avatar was different it was at least consistent

Tbh i'm the only reason people come here. I should really be charging them for my posts.

I would love to write on the video game industry, but I don't feel that the general cv requirements are likely to result in a healthy career, so it'll have to wait until I can open up some bullshit venture capitalists firm in the video game industry to give myself more credibility.

Considering the last two threads that were asking people to address another users (I think the titles were which users you want to take to the bar with and something about thanking somebody on here), it's pretty much seal the deal that I'm a nobody.

These goes my ego as it seen being the site on here the longest or having ALOT of posts means nothing (sure I'm not super old on here but I've been on here for over 4 years now when others register after 2010).

Yes I am aware that I'm not the most popular or socialable user on here and it does seen demanding/ selfish for me to want others for recognition but I used to think that I did matter to somebody on here even if it's just one person (what, this website means alot to me). I'm guessing I'm wrong about that.

*Sigh* great, now it feels like I'm asking for pity at this thread now, like if I can get any lower (well I DID wanted to be nominated for a community spotlight)...

I'd like to think some people recognize me but I'd have to start a poll to get exact numbers :p

I recognize a lot of the people posting in this topic so I'd say there's a good chance we know eachother just at different levels.

I recognize you so that is proven to be false.

I think i'm kinda recognisable, I even have friends here would you believe. I think i'm sort of expected to post something about Persona 4 in a JRPG thread at the least. That or find an excuse to explain in detail the failings of the protagonist in Persona 3 and how he singlehandedly ruins the theme of the game.
After I started taking breaks from posting you usurped me. *shakes fist*
OP: I'm sure some people recognize me on here. Most reactions are probably negative.

Eh. Don't think I've posted enough for any for anyone to think 'hey, its that guy again!', though some of my opinions have got surprising amounts of responses.

I know two fellas that recognize me for being a Chie Steakonaka fan.

Other than that, be on the watch out for Jagerman. Long time user guy who sucks Platinum Game's ***, cosplayer of homoerotic Jojo characters, and obsesser of girlfriend.
PM if you're interested in idol chat... or don't... ever... stop...
P.S. DON'T, ONCE YOU'RE FRIENDS WITH ME YOU CAN NEVER GO BACK, I WILL STALK YOU.

I'll take a stab at not being humble, and say:
"I think some people recognize me."
For better or worse.

People like me, or hate me,... or think I'm ok, or something like that. :p

I think I'm reasonably recognizable in Forum Games, and maybe some know me in Off-Topic, too.
