Hey all the people (this start sounds idiotic (who the flip starts a sentence with Hey all the... (Are brackets in brackets allowed (brackception (I came up with that on the spot))))) (including you hero (sorry for blasphemy)) who are commenting on this try to empathise more, you are barely helping him out with these replies. Ok rant over. Next paragraph.

First question (I can't be bothered to quote you here because I am doing this on phone ).: there are a million definition of pro stretching between memorising unbeatable starters and knowing every move and counter by name to being able to do double backflips in three times normal gravity and even to being able to rip apart ever one of Uke's (the blue guy in single player) limbs in less than 3 seconds. There are many tutorials on the last two. The first one is a mystery to me but I would advice joining a server with pros on and watch their starter moves .

Now on to popularity, get awesome at art music writing video making or just be an amazingly good guy. Win fights in junior/beginner/novice (I can't remember actual name) to earn tori credits (TC) which are displayed in bottom left hand corner of screen I think you might earn more with unbroken winning streaks. Once you have about 1000 to 100,000 TC make a tournament (find some other asshole to explain how to do this please). During this tournament make sure you make people remember who you are and that you are giving the winner money because you are a great guy.

Now onto your third question "betting and stuff". In betting servers the minimum ( smallest amount) bet is 100TC and you can only bet a few turn frames after the fight start . Make sure you can afford to bet 100TC without losing all your money. To bet type /bet (type amount of TC you want to bet here) (type player you want to bet on here) ( do not include brackets around value and name) (do not write the clan name e.g,(Anon) [rawr] (Phoenix) etc... There will be brackets around there clan name so you can tell). Type this into chat with nothing else in the chat box.

Oh and most importantly be fcking grateful for me wasting a quarter of an hour writing this is the hope that your noob ass might be better for it. Also good luck and may the Orc Force be with you.

learn to suck balls, fawn and generaly to be a stooge infront of staff / ex-staff flock socializing on IRC, then quit playing the game and pretend you know shit. don't forget to neglect any attention to game itself as it makes you un-cool.

this is most guaranteed way to achieve what you aim at. and the most popular way too.

Well to be pro you need only to train, and to be popular you need to be active in game and forum.

If you haven't noticed....... This thread was made in the beginning of 2012. I would suggest you stop posting here, lol.

Thankfully you can do the exact opposite of this to get you famous as I did, so I wouldn't follow that advice.

not like i'm flattering you, but you are pleasant exception, considering the general trend

There's some serious necromancy and stupidity going on in here so let's just close this m'kay?
