In general as opposed to on here? No not really, I think I'm generally liked by most people who know me but I wouldn't say I was especially popular, I'm not that outgoing social butterfly type that people tend to be drawn to. |

In life or on fab?
I don't think I'm unpopular but I could see how I could be annoying to some.
I don't strive to be anything other than myself although being disliked by the majority probably wouldn't do much for my ego and I would question why it is.

I would possibly say that being disliked isn't the other side of popularity as notoriety brings its own attention, the opposite of popularity is probably anonymity. |

Oh then I'll go with the nope nope nothing answer as well
I'm not sure how one would judge popularity on here. Most people probably don't have a strong opinion on me one way or another so I'll say not popular but not widely disliked either and I'm happy with that state of affairs ![](/icons/s/biggrin.gif) |

"Do you think that you are?

Not especially, no. There’s been times I have been and times I most certainly haven’t. Guess it’s all context and crowd, and interactions therein.
There’s been times I’ve craved positive regard, yes. But I’ve learned to look out for myself as whatever you do, will never be good enough for those that dictate it. I’m now focused on reciprocity.
Friends. A sense of worth. Not necessarily from popularity per se but from gaining positive connections. But there are those that will pooh pooh anyone that enjoys the forum for those reasons, ach balls to them. ![](/icons/s/razz.gif) |

I think in terms of fab there's forever changing waves of who is popular, who has irked someone, who made a comment that was misconstrued.
It depends too who is around at the time, sometimes you post loads and no one really interacts with you then other times you're all over the place chatting and getting involved.
I think looking at yourself in that way is hard here, you can't tell how anyone else's experience has been to compare it to yours plus people make so many assumptions about you and your character it's impossible to know how you're coming across.
For example I get accused of attention seeking because I post a fair bit and start threads but to me I start inclusive threads and try to encourage people to get involved. In mind I'm just hanging out chatting and I hope that I come across well but to others I'm trying to hog the li_elight. You can't win. |

I have people that like me. But I wouldn’t say I’m popular and wouldn’t wish to be. I think quite a few people respect me too. I don’t get any shit on here so I’m not disliked particularly either. I’m probably irrelevant to quite a lot. |

Is this for research purposes OP?
Your threads always seem to follow a similar theme of how people perceive themselves and others in the forums. Likewise, you often comment in your replies that posters have misunderstood your intention and the answer/comment given wasn’t what you expected.
I’m just wondering if you are researching for a degree/masters etc? |

No. My opinions don’t tend to go with the majority on here so I doubt it but my friends who know me properly on here are who count. Other than that I’m not really that bothered I just get on with it ![](/icons/s/biggrin.gif) |

It's all relative.
I have a great gang of friends who I love dearly, I guess I'm popular with them.
I've got peeps I talk to and get nekked with on here, I guess I'm popular with them too.
Generally I don't walk into a room and people throw themselves at me tho...unless it's Milf Monday at the Town House lol.
And I'm ok with that ![](/icons/s/biggrin.gif) |

I find people interesting in their complexity and often I find that there's a 'disconnect' between how we see ourselves and how others see us, the internet simply enhances this as I've found people 'can' display a caricature of themselves online, be it good or bad.
I find how we perceive ourselves and others to be of infinite interest and I often find myself wondering about intent and motive regarding people's interactions and the 'dance' played out in subtlety daily.
I'm finding these things of interest to me at the moment, not that many answers are forthcoming but I like to think that a spark of introspection or self awareness is a wonderful thing.
I've also asked 'important' questions and down right daft ones along the way, I also do a nice line in threads that bring people together too...
Thanks for noticing though! |

That's very true in terms of others judgement there is no winning, it's a case of damned if you do and damned if you don't.
I do agree though that even the most popular forum poster feels ignored and overlooked at times and we always evaluate our own experience in relation others through the rose tinted glasses of perception.
Things are rarely as we see and perspective is a funny thing. |

"Ha! No! Especially not now I've hidden any naked pictures.
Do you think that makes a difference? "
The people I'm already friends with don't care if I have my boobs on show or not, but the superficial interactions drop right off if no nakedness is apparent. I've always been the type to have very few, but very close, good friends so it's not something that upsets me. I prefer to slink around on the peripheries. |

"Do you think that you are?
Probably only with females that are into me which is lovey.
Do you strive for it?
No, I didn’t join Fab to post on the forums to be seen as popular amongst the relatively small proportion of Fabsters on the site.
What do you get out of it?
Out of Fab? Interesting conversations and a giggle with Females that I’m interested in and on occasion into their knickers "

If popularity is measured by how many people I enjoy speaking to and interact with, then perhaps. Though ultimately, it's up to people to make that judgment, not me. I just enjoy being sociable, flirting and having a laugh in general ![](/icons/s/biggrin.gif) |

I don't think I am popular. I see myself as an acquired taste in all honesty. As long as the people I like like me, I'm happy and content with that. I do enjoy talking to quite a few people but it can be superficial frippery and frivolity often. Nothing wrong with that. |

I was never a popular person in school, more the quiet, understated, geeky one.
Some like me on here, I think, and some don't. It's nice to be liked but it doesn't bother me if I'm not. I can't be everyone's cup of tea x |

I think popularity comes along with how new you are and how engaging on the forum you also are.
I probably tried to be popular 'in the beginning' to get myself in where I thought I wanted to be.
It's not a natural instinct of mine though and true selves always out. I'm more weird and grumpy on the outskirts again looking in, my spiritual home ![](/icons/s/mrgreen.gif) |

I reckon there's a few that think I'd be ace to hang out with (or of)
And a few who think I'd be ace to hang out with providing I was jumping from a plane with a faulty parachute.
I think I'm more popular than some but less popular than others, swings n roundabouts ain't it, and sometimes very similar to the school playground in more ways than one.
Am I fussed? Depends on the why.
Is it because someone has been spreading shit about me that's bollocks then yeah, I think I'd be peeved.
Is it because those people genuinely don't like me or what I'm about? Nah, we don't all like everyone and that's ok.
Thing is, there are a multitude of reasons someone can be popular and the reason makes a difference to me. Am I popular because people enjoy what I have to say or because of the who I am? I'll take it.
Am I popular because I'm an easy fuck and have a reputation for opening my legs purely to gain popularity? You can keep that shit ta muchly.
It's all subjective and sometimes we can be "popular" for what we consider the wrong reasons to us.
Fuck knows if any of that makes sense
