PB, you are right. There's tons of them. I remember when I joined in June 2007, I felt like a big wallflower - I never caught anybody's attention, I was never popular, and nobody ever posted on threads I started. It was about a year later that it got nicer for me.
All I did was figure out which people I liked (their attitudes, humor, etc), and always posted on their threads to support them. I also PM'd people if I admired their comments or photos.
On BYC, it works to observe for a few months, get to recognize the same people and their little peculariarities and decide who you want for a friend. With any luck, they'll like you too and a year later, your PM box and threads will be full of pesky people who won't leave you alone. It's wonderful but takes a long time.
OR...you could be like me and post on peoples threads even if they dont like you..
Who doesn't like you????? Tell me now! I'll beat em up for ya! Better yet, I'll sic my roo on them!
(Yes, I'm s'pose to be napping. I'm blaming deb for starting this thread
)
