Okay so, not sure how to word this. But I have a series of theories about the WP community that all kinda go together, so Ima make three polls to gather data and see if my theories are correct or incorrect. I'll link the other two at the bottom of this post! Please comment your thoughts on this theory and if you've noticed other things as well!
I've noticed that the big artists get a lot of attention in chat, which makes sense since art is such a huge thing on WP. Tell me two users you associate with chat. My big two are ET & BJake. And part of me wonders if part of it could be a subconscious form of self promotion, if youre seen in chat a bunch, and show the stuff youve been working on (even if you dont mean to be promoting, instead being like, "HEY GUYS I DID A THING ISNT IT SO COOL?!" Because that is 100% me lmao) then it builds not only your ethos (credibility) but also makes you seem more approachable and subsequently like youre buying from a friend of sorts.
