Good morning, Mr. Reporter!
I apologize for not responding sooner -- I was out of town for my birthday on the 3rd, and wasn't really awake enough yesterday to answer this.
1. How did you become so well known? It seems like you just popped out of the dark one day and started to have fans shouting your name! icon_xd.gif
Am I really well known? sweatdrop I've been on Gaia since October of '03 -- and spent the first 3 years on the site in the Art Discussion & Comic Creators forum -- I popped into the GCD in March of '07 because two close friends of mine, Madame May and Omega Will posted there. So I guess I didn't really appear out of nowhere. xd
No one really payed all that much attention to me in the GCD until May when I made some ridiculous threads during the Subeta incident and delcared that Patrick Swayze was going to be May's MC.
Attention was and has and will never be my goal however, and people that post soley to gain recognition and not to just have fun are what really hurt the dynamic of a community. It's hard to have a fun discussion when you have someone standing in the center of the room screaming "LOOKATMELOOKATMELOOKATME!!!." I post in the GCD to have fun with the friends I've made and generate fun discussion.
...and I have fans? That's scary! I mean, I know I had some clones running around back in August -- but fans? That's weeeeeird! I can even use a Bleach quote to sum up how I feel about it.
"Being admired is the furthest thing from being understood" --I'd rather have friends that understand me and love me despite the understanding (and I've been blessed with making some AMAZING ones here in the GCD) than have fans that just think I'm some name to pay attention to.
2. Do you have any enemies on Gaia? If so who are they and why are they your so called "enemy"? icon_rolleyes.gif
...Aside from shinigami? ninja
Rofffflno. If I have enemies then I'm blissfully unaware of them, because I don't put too much stock into that sort of thing on the internet. It sounds so silly and melodramatic! Why? Have you heard something I haven't? lol
I've had my share with public (and private) disagreements with various GCDers, but I don't hold lasting grudges because of them. In life, not everyone sees eye-to-eye, and it's not going to be the same way on the internet either. Some of the people I had misunderstandings with in the past have become dear friends and fond aquaintances. smile
If someone wants to see me as an "enemy" because I am not going to agree with them, or am not afraid of telling them that their behaviour is ridiculous, that's their problem.
3. What tool do you use to make yourself well known? Is it being kind, a b***h, or overall not sucking up?
Tools? Uhm. Is posting a tool? I have no idea how to answer this. I wasn't aware that I had done anything out of the ordinary. I mean, I guess maybe my art and avatars got me noticed...but there's a zillion other GCDers with amazing avvies and gorgeous art in their signatures. xd
I'm nothing special. Just another silly GCDer.
4. Whats your favorite Guild and why?
I can't just pick one! Err...
Las Noches -- my GCD/ Bleachtard / hangout guild is a favorite for obvious reasons. Geeking out over my favorite manga and being surrounded by people I adore? AWESOME!
GCD R/P -- I was honored when Frosty made me Vice Captain of such an awesome guild. It's filled with really fun and amazing people that never cease to make me laugh when I need it.
"So you wanna be a Comic Artist" -- Not a GCD guild at ALL. It's run by some of my close friends from the Comic Creators forum, and it never ceases to inspire me when I need help with my work -- and fufills that part of me that loves constantly geeking out over making art and comics. smile
I hope this is what you were looking for!
