A number? I don't think you need to bring numbers into this; you can just say "everyone."
On a forum with about 20 regularly active members, that doesn't really count for much. And seeing as some of those "everyone" are my own personal friends, your point doesn't really hold up.

Please take care to note also that there are people in this world outside of FFR.

Just because 10 people on a forum think you're a *****, doens't mean you are one. But you're still probably doing something they dislike.
Now here's something with a brain.

I certainly don't recall ever considering myself "cool". Being "cool" is a pretty stupid concept anyway - everyone had different interests and taste.

I'm currently looking for gamers with an interest in the gaming culture and industry outside of Final Fantasy to help with a new, upcoming video game news site. If you think you're interested, please throw a PM my way.

You know, it just seems like you spend so much time *****ing about how people treat you on this forum that you'd give a bit more concern to the problem of how people perceive you. But whatever.

But if you want to befriend the people here, because you like the place. Would it not be best to think about what it must be that you're doing that is pissing people off, and sort it?

Most of those people still think you're being a tosser, they're just willing to put up with it without snapping because they have more patience than I do

I don't go on the internet to "befriend" people. Some people I end up making friends with, sure, but I'm rarely one to seek a person out first.

*claps* Now that's using your brain. I just hope the person that it was too, sees the light with it, no offence. Then starts trying to change thems around, then *****ing about them all the time.

Do I care enough to?
Well, you're still here. Arguing with Aaron, tossing in points about this and that, including your friends here. So I'd say you do have friends here and wouldn't stay here just for the content. In turn I'd guess that means you do care enough to be here, you care enough to argue with Aaron about whether you are or aren't a tosser. So you'd probably care enough to actually get on with him, too.

If he wasn't such a moody awkward **** most of the time :P
