Title: Popularity Target: Where Does YOUR Arrow Land?
Post by: Vask on November 27, 2013, 03:13:46 am
IMPORTANT NOTE: This chart was not meant to offend anybody on Feral Heart in ANY WAY. Do not take anything on this topic as an insult or as offensive. This is simply for fun, and to make discussion. Thank You :)

I've made a little target of MY idea of the Feral Heart Popularity Levels. And LOOK! It's rainbow :3

(http://i40BannedImageSite/2uggn7n.jpg)
Newbie: A new member of Feral Heart. They are not known to Feral Heart with minimal friends. People do not stay in this category long, as they soon make many good friends.
Friendly: A regular member of Feral Heart. These people have many people on their friends list, but only a chosen few are good friends they talk to daily. They are not known very well around Feral Heart, but you can say you've seen them a few times.
Semi-Popular: These floofies are somewhat well known around Feral Heart. They are sometimes seen participating on the forums and in-game. A few people can say they have discussed with them at least once, and these people know their way around Feral Heart VERY well.
Popular: Popular floofies are pretty well known around Feral Heart, and are seen participating in-game and on the forums AT LEAST once a day. Many people can easily say they have spoken to them, or seen them in game more than once. They know their way around the Forums and Game as if it was the back of their paw.
Very Popular: These peoples are the ones you see every day. They are usually good friends with Staffies, and can be found in almost every corner of the Forums. These are also the floofies that win many awards, especially MOTS.
Staffies: These are floofs that work for Feral Heart. They live and breath Feral Heart what seems like all day every day. They keep our floofy butts in line, and are utterly adored by everyone. Some people seem to forget their human, and give them star treatment, even if their just people behind computer screens. They do work hard, however, and should be recognized.

Now it's your turn! Where do you think you land on the Feral Heart Target? Post here telling us where your arrow lands!

I'm probably at in-between semi-popular and popular. I post on a bunch of things throughout the forums, I've played for 2 years and still love it.. But I don't have many friends. I'm like at the newbie friend-level..

Well, I'm not newbie, 'cause I have been here for a while. Maybe I'm something in between friendly & newbie
Title: Re: Popularity Target: Where Does YOUR Arrow Land?
Post by: WolfQueen on November 27, 2013, 07:21:02 am
That's a huge space for newbie.

I think I would fall close to semi-popular.

Hurr durr. I dun'tz know. D: Maybe in between semi-popular and popular? I can go 'on' BRB sometimes and have 5 people sitting on me, and I get random friend requests like daily. >.>

Friendly. I do get random friend requests however, but that seems to be more of a rule than an exception between the floofs around the game. I do, however, remember being around semi-popular at one point between some users, as I remember a person once coming up to me and telling me their friend had told them I was a cool person. That was over a year ago, but I guess it still counts.

Hm... maybe between popular and very popular? (Though leaning more of on the popular side.) I dunno, I'll let some other floofs be the judge of that~

Ah.. xD I know few staff members, but a large amount of people who know 'm. I guess I fall between popular and very popular.
Title: Re: Popularity Target: Where Does YOUR Arrow Land?
Post by: peete on November 28, 2013, 04:29:53 am
Eh, Friendly on the forums. Semi-popular/Popular ingame c:

But should Staffies be part of the hierarchy? I'm just kind of curious because it's not like you can work your way up from Newbie to becoming a well known staff...
Title: Re: Popularity Target: Where Does YOUR Arrow Land?
Post by: Cola 42 on November 28, 2013, 03:39:31 pm
I guess I would still rank as Newbie

Very interesting chart, there.~

I shall not judge myself for what I am, though. Maybe somewhere off the chart, at about 'Un-realisticly too smexy newbie'..? c; <33 Nurrhh~ I've been playing for like 2 years.

Post by: Vespian on November 29, 2013, 06:23:06 am
I'd personally shoot myself onto the 'Semi-popular' section of ze' circle rainbow but alas, everyone's opinion is different so for a majority of the matter I'd merely let others who know me be the judge of that.

I don't know, maybe friendly since I ain't newbie. ._. May the people choose (I'm wolvesaregreat in game, haven't been on in a while). Also to mention my buddy list is pretty crowded, but I'm not sure that makes me le famous.

I think I fall in between Popular and Very Popular .3. I'm online everyday, and I'm friends with a few of the staff. But I honestly don't know. owo
Title: Re: Popularity Target: Where Does YOUR Arrow Land?

Hehe. You're good friends with staff. I'm sure you land in Very Popular :3
Title: Re: Popularity Target: Where Does YOUR Arrow Land?
Post by: ~Stargazer~ on December 03, 2013, 03:43:05 am
I must say I'm also a friend with a staff member and some "well known" people so I'm not sure if that would put me in semi popular or popular o3o -derp-

I'd say that I'm Friendly, since I'm not a newbie.

Post by: cloudfire on December 03, 2013, 07:29:35 am
 Hm. I know I posted before but thought I should say it's cool to know where most of you land. :p


I know a few staff members and mutual friends of Staffies, so popular / very popular? I'm on ALOT. xD
But as followed by Kiki, Buffy and  Lady; I'll let my friends or others be the judge of where I land. :3

Post by: Redlinelies on December 03, 2013, 07:43:23 am
Read this if you guys have some minutes to spare since I don't want this being scanned through and read between the lines.

I'm not quite certain I like seeing how itemized things are made out to be here and how apparently a "friend" of staff is = very popular. I see it very different but of course, I'm not the majority myself. At the same time I understand that those who appear to be contact with those in a "higher" position will get more eyes their way, it's just how things work, but it's something I personally wish for being sought out slightly different. I also wish to just ask a theoretical question that is not about the answer. It's just something I wish for people to have in mind.

Are you a friend of staff, or is it more about them being polite and respect you as a user?

Of course I might see things slightly different, but a true friend is really a friend to me and just not someone I can sit next to in the game or say hi to and exchange a few words with. From my own point of view I have great value of people that I can feel wish to be around and talk with for who I am and not which title one might possess, this is something I believe is no way different in other online communities or places we have on the internet(some people can be exceptions of course). Throughout the time here people have misunderstood many things regarding staffing, one of which is really the whole "friend of staff" situation. I just want people to have a deep thinker about this. In all fairness anyone could be a so called "friend of staff" by just respecting them as they should to any other player they meet, or even just respecting the work that has to be done. Because if it comes down to being a true friend you'd have to think of the individuals IN the staff and what a friend is and means to each and everyone of them alone, not see staff as a bunch.

Though the OP of this thread didn't make a bad post at all and this is an interesting thread(hence my reply), I just feel what follows from the discussion is slightly misleading, so don't get this wrong. I'm not trying to discourage the thread or original thought of discussion, but rather throw in my two cents about the matter. I feel like if there was a corresponding image for how a staff might look on things it wouldn't really look the same since staffing is about the work that needs to be done to take care of the community and game and is therefore placed high. I cannot say that I see and respect every user I ever met the same because then I'd be lying, but what affects this is really how they act and what they do around FeralHeart. Some people just really sticks out as a role model in the sea of users while others go the opposite and cause issues for both themselves and everyone, this, something that certainly is noticed and taken into account in my personal view.

There's many ways you as a user can get popular in a game community like FeralHeart, and being seen as popular due to the so called friends you have rather than who you are, what you do, and what you've managed to get done or do, I'd say is not how it should be. If your friend in real life has another friend that they wish to introduce you to, of course you're not going to push them away and say no before you even met them and got to know them a bit, and just like you can meet a stranger on the street that says hello, of course you can't know for certain who they are as a person until something has been shown on their part.

Devilburgers posted earlier asking if Staff really should be a part here, which I think could be considered since it could be popular due to being helpful as a staff, rather than being popular as a staff that the chart makes it out to be. But as that is a good question, some of it was wrong as well since anyone can work their way up from being a newbie to become part of the staff, the majority that's on the staff today started out as a player just like many of you guys.

In the end I myself or anyone else cannot change how the world works and how things will be seen, but some of us can try, and I really do hope that this reply will help to get some insight if it wasn't there already.

Ah, okay. I remember reading something on the forums talking about how you guys aren't looks for new/more staff members, or that it was a very slow process to become one, so I figured Staffies was something you earned (which really wouldn't make sense to be like, "Congratz, you're Semi-Popular!"). But it kind of makes sense now c:

Quite interesting and creative topic.

In all my accounts, which are two, the friend list is pretty full and I have some very good friends. My activity in-game and here on the forum is equal.

Not sure where my arrow would be, but I tend to say that it'll land on the border between friendly and semi-popular. More leaning to the semi-popular though.
Title: Re: Popularity Target: Where Does YOUR Arrow Land?
Post by: meeeea on December 08, 2013, 08:38:53 pm
Semi-popular, I think so, at least. I'll let others be the judge of that. However, I have like, two friends in-game. x3 I'm not a very social person so this doesn't surprise me.

Honestly. Personally, I do not like 'ranking' myself in a community.
It's up to others to judge where I should be, or what they think of me.
It's a nice thought, though. Even if I don't (personally) see a point in it. ^^

Leanin' towards semi, though.~ Since I'm both femalecreature and ~HeLp~ (yes, I moved accounts; femalecreature was freakin' overcrowded with SUPER OLD characters from the dinosaur period, like freakin' ugly (fugly) cats e-e) I've regained some old friends, such as hugrf and Tambo<3 I love 'em all.

But, I don't like judgin' myself. Could some of ya rate me?<3 Much appreciated.

I believe I'm in the "friendly" to "semi-popular" level.

for me maybe friendly to semi-popular, I come to the forums everyday and I go in-game a little, but I only know the veterans of FH well, most of the newbies that are on Feral Heart these days don't know me considering I joined back in December of 2011 cx

Post by: MiuIruma on December 16, 2013, 11:52:18 am
Uhm...
Between my two accounts [Character overflow] I'm probably anywhere between the Newbie and Semi-Popular range, debating on who you talk to or where you go. Though it's probably on the low side anywhere outside of Ficho and in Ficho, because I frequent Bonfire. And in Bonfire everyone is forgotten as soon as their post isn't the first in the chat or that they stop trolling the MC. *Sigh.* Unless they're your mate, but I can't RP that.
But I got 2 REALLY close friends. Like, they don't frequent the game sometimes, but when I catch them on we hit it off, man. 'Specially when the three of us are put together.
And then I got quite a few buddies I'm fond of, but grew apart from a bit from when we first met...
Then countless floofs I've befriended after an exceptional RP session...
But I'm not really known for anything in both the newer and older account. I'm practically a spot in the dark.

MY FRIEND, HOWEVER...
