Anyone can become a prommie. It's true, really. There are a number of ways to do it - some faster than others - but you only REALLY need a few essential things:
- A name that won't embarass you. No numbers, underscores, asterisks, etc.
Regular posting schedule. Be in the GD as often as possible! Don't waste time in other forums, and be willing to acknowledge the shortcomings of those forums.
Something to be remembered by. A gimmick, a unique signature, what have you ... and the better it flows with your name and persona, the better it will all come together.
Knowing who's who. Not to an individual level, but it certainly helps if you can evaluate who is a prommie, and who is not. Find out who you should side with and who you should ridicule.
Talk the talk. Be meme savy, and don't hesitate to use phrases like "you fail" and "gtfo" when appropriate, but also be ready to denounce such jejune trends at any moment. Hypocrisy is largely unimportant.
There's load of other stuff that can help, but those are some key things. But without art skills, camwhoring, or immense e-wealth, the road to prominence may take a while.
