GRRR! What is it with everyone on this thread not knowing me! I have connections to Wolf1991, Murasaki and TackycrazyTNT. Anyway, 7/10 for having a constant respect for AG users.
Just being friends with some regular and popular users doesn't make you automatically known by all users. You still have to participate in the forums for people to recognize you and eventually you will become more and more popular in the forums. You know do your fair share.
5/10 for being new and having a decent amount of post for you're rank.
