Inspired by Verbose’s and udunnomyname’s blogs, along with several other blogs.
So.
Let’s talk.
Let’s talk about popularity.
I’ll go over three points-
1) What is popularity
2) Why it is desirable and why you are all right for seeking it
3) Why you still suck slash you’re embarrassing yourself with this
Popularity is “the favor of the general public or of a particular group of people” [/url]
It means if the masses like you.
If you have a lot of friends.
But let’s analyze this word;
Popularity implies that if you have a lot of friends, you’re a good person. It implies that people want to be friends with you. It implies that society has the correct morales to judge someone and choose the least evil (for lack of wording to say “best”) person to deem popularity.
By that statement, I was saying. . .
If you’re popular, does that necessarily mean you’re a good person?
If you’re popular, does that not give you basic support that you are a good person?
“If there is one truth in this world, it would be that everyone is alone and afraid of being alone.”
It’s fine to want to be popular.
Is it wrong to want to have friends and a healthy social Life?
No.
According to the previous quote I made, if we’re human, we want to be loved. We want to be known. We want to have purpose.
We don’t want to be alone.
Then what’s wrong with this community?
There’s a difference for wanting something and what you do to get that something.
Like hacking.
We can all agree that, although the actual hacker may have the right intentions of wanting to gain levels, not having the time, getting extra money, et cetera, hacking isn’t exactly what you should do to achieve that goal.
Now using that mindset and placing it into a different situation with different morales. . .
Well, let’s think about what the community has been doing lately to gain popularity.
1) Making blogs solely about fame and popularity
2) Making blogs idolizing other figures
3) Asking for fame
4) Asking for fame multiple times
5) Complimenting those they do not know
Oh right, and readers, click on this.
Okay, now that you’ve read that and the previous information above. . .
How valid are your actions?
Being fake? Is that the right way to go?
Stop talking about me
You don’t even know me
Stop talking about my friends
All you’ve done is reiterate rumors and junk
If you’ve never held a conversation with Aliyah, commented a real opinion onto Guruji’s blogs, connected with fpooned or his antics,
then make like a tree and get the hell out.
Kay.
Thanks.
Bye.
Comment?
Complain?
I dare you
Post script
I might as well show off.
My permanent beginner, Frownly, has officially reached level 45.
I’m amazingly proud <33 She even got NX.
Sorry~
I wrote on impulse and didn’t revise or check.
And now i get to go visit my grandparents! WHEE.
Take care. Please comment.
” 2) Making blogs idolizing other figures”
Professing love to my dearest does not fall under that does it?
;_;
Well, I wanted to make a blog addressing this a while back but I was afraid people would say
“OMG Guru, you just want to be popular”
You know how n00bs are in this world xD
For me, its a simple rule. SO long as it pleaseth me, i do it. Screw what people think.
Agree, but sometimes you have to know there are space for all things.
Fadox~
I’m guilty. I made one entire blog about the awesomeness of SilverFx. xD
But, you know, it gives some people the vicarious pleasure to laugh at the ‘popular’ people. It’s just like how people read the Entertainment section of the newspapers/magazines for the scandals. Then they can pat themselves on the back and say, ‘Well, I am in no way popular like that so-and-so, I probably wouldn’t do something like that, so aren’t I better?’
Complimenting those they do not know -> nobody really knows eachother in the beginning.
And yeah i agree with you that lately lots of people write blogs just for the likes. For example Ciara00 ( i don’t know why but her name pops up right just randomly)
and you can still be popular and have a healthy life with friends. but yes most people who are popular, just live to be popular.
hmz this reminds me of something. . . i think we had a discussion about what popularity is when i was still going to hs.
w8 do u hate me or verbose?
congrats and lvl45 beginner =D
Wow lvl45 beginner! Uber pwnz!

♥
(appologies for the double post)
What the hell has happened here? o_O I read Verbose’s blog but I still have absofrickinlutely no idea what is going on.
Nonetheless, I agree with you.
<3 ya.
Go Indigo.
This site has become some sort of contest. Well, i officially drop out!
No, im not quitting the site. I have been here too long to just give up.
I hope that after this, i never see another “Whos the most popular?” thread or blog ever again.
Sorry.
I’m trying to be as neutral as can be while making a point.
Thanks for the support, and thirty percent until level 46! <333
