Isn't it easier for everyone that way?

This becomes difficult, because we have to consider who actually cares about the post count, rep, stars, color of text in a username. Anyone can say they're "popular". But it only carries meaning if other people recognize it, which is why it can become so dangerous.

People who've interacted with me know I'm not particularly good at reaching out. And my scheduling abilities are pretty terrible. (Trying to fix this). But whether or not I think I'm popular, someone else may think I am. And to that person, I would then have some "popular" status that influences how that person would interpret my words or react to me.

I was literally dragged into the community by some friends. First they lured me into an out of game chat. Then some RL friends in the chat lured me out with food. I talked to people out of game, and then we worked out plotting and stories in-game.

But that was only how I met -some- of my contacts. Remember our first couple meetings, Eleni? Spontaneous and completely unplanned! (And I'd say we had a pretty good time). The RPC simply alerted us that the other existed. I don't think post count, rep, or other statistics on the forums made that decision. But for someone else, it might.
