Why do you care that much? That's an important question you should answer.
Other people have created cool things, written neat things, been assholes constantly, been insightful in lots of posts, or asked inane questions in multiple threads daily for people to riff off of. Joining in when people play games as a community helps, something I've never done.
People seem to recognize me fairly often on the forums and here is how I got there:
I've hosted contests and mailed people prizes.
I told a crazy life story from my past that was interesting to people in a gossipy way (that was inappropriate for these forums), and then I met and fell in love with a hot girl on the site from another country, who's moving in with me next year.
I've also given people advice on depression, weight loss, and girls. And tomorrow I'm recording the first Giant Bomb Xtreme Girl Advice Line podcast.
I've interacted fairly regularly with the staff in a number of forums, and they know me and have done things for me in the past. I rewarded them with Deep Dish Pizza.
I write long and in-depth pieces on ancillary gaming media and older games that nobody reads. Don't do that.
Also, pick an avatar pic and NEVER EVER change it. It is the key identifier to your "brand".
As a beloved and popular Giant Bomb user myself I can provide you with a number of great tips, in my upcoming book called: "I used to be a unknown user but then I took an arrow to the knee and read this book and now I'm super famous"
It will teach you everything about how to cleverly use memes that will stay relevant and funny forever.
Pretty much the same way that you can become more known in any community. Be productive, active, interesting, or useful in some way. But I wouldn't worry about it too much, we're all just duders in the end.
Truthfully you shouldn't worry about it. Post on forums regarding to games you like, make new friends through them, and totally just chill. That's the great thing about this site. Don't think of it as a high school popularity contest or you won't have any fun bro! :)

Honestly it's all about posting consistently in whatever forum interests you. I'm pretty much a ghost outside of off-topic but I post a lot on this board.
The moon isn't real, it's just a projection that the Government set up back in the 50's to get us to work longer hours. Given that fact, I deduced that you don't actually exist. You are either a deep cover agent working for the NSA that is watching over this little hostile community, or you are just a crack pot that has a power complex with being a king. In reality, you are no king, in fact you do not even like video games.
