How to Make Friends on Associated Content!

When making friends on Associated Content, it is important to make the "right" friends. Associated Content is somewhat like High School. There are cliques and you will have to fall into one of them in order to "fit in." Actually, since High School has a little bit of room for some differences in opinion and the kids can control themselves, strike the "High School" reference and put in "Junior High."

The Shining Stars

The shining stars are always those who are helping others out and never have anything controversial to say about anything. As a matter of fact, they have nothing to say, period. They write the calls for content, participate and play nice in the forums, kiss up to the powers that be and as a reward, get a little pin from the pope.

To become part of this clique, you have to be prepared to kiss a lot of ass all of the time. And defend the site. Never get angry. Never, ever write anything but SEO articles that have been done to death. This conforms with the site.

The Jocks

These are a little bit different than the shining stars. They have usually done something nice for the site and have been rewarded by being treated like living gods. Joining the jocks is simple - just become one of their cheerleaders.

The America Hating Pseudo Intellectuals

They've got thesauruses. They have access to quotes online. They love to argue their politics, usually under a false name for your own protection. Because, as everyone knows, if you disagree with someone on a forum, you can get sued.

In order to join this group, you have to pass a vocabulary test. And you also have to make sure you never, ever break up your paragraphs. One long rant should do you well. And it should be filled with as much venom as possible. They'll take you in. The only problem is that they spend more time on other people's pages attacking blindly. Another name for these guys are "trolls." They have very little, if any, content of their own. Because they can't write.

To become a true member, try not to write too much stuff. It's far more fun to troll than actually write. Especially when you can't really write.
