I've been on Apolyton for roughly four and a half years and have engaged in a fair number of debates, discussions, and arguments. I've seen the releases of both Civ 3 and Civ 4 and participated fairly frequently during those times. But I will also admit that, to a large extent, I've been a lurker and that gaps between my posts can be rather lengthy.
The result of this, I feel, is that no one on Apolyton really knows the real Lorizael. And, of course, this is a terribly depressing thought; I'm just not one of the popular posters here. Inevitably, this serves to crush my already diminished self-esteem.
Alas, I cannot let this be. I was uncool in elementary school, uncool in middle school, and and uncool in high school too. If, on top of all that, I were also uncool in my chosen internet forum - well that, that would simply be the end of me.
So, for those of you still reading this inane rant, I have resolved to become one of Apolyton's elite famous posters.
An Apolytoner whose well known radical beliefs are used as a measuring stick for others of similar inclinations.
An Apolytoner who finds himself most often in people's signatures.
An Apolytoner that causes other Apolytoners to wake suddenly in the night, disturbed by dreams of anonymous internet posters.
Thus I implore you, the people of Apolyton, to give to me a new persona, a wild and outlandish personality that will ensure my popularity and notoriety.
Shall I be a surfer dude, concerned only with finding new beaches across the world? A hardcore Conervative who idolizes and quotes Ann Coulter? A religious nut dedicated to converting everyone on Apolyton to my new cult?
It's up to you, my fellow posters. I realize now that “just being yourself" doesn't work in today's cutthroat world. I must be someone else. So the question is - Who! The answer I leave to you.
(The ultimate irony, of course, would be if this thread sank into the depths of postless obscurity.)
