You only have less than 4 comments for every submission. As TheMemingOfLife my ratio was 18 to 1. I made it to over 550k points and number 72 on the all time leader board, 3 front page memes a small amount of time on the 7 day leader board. All in 4 months. You have to get out and make yourself known more. The big fish (and I don't think of myself as one of them) when asked the secret emphasize commenting a lot. How do you expect ppl to come upon your memes if you don't give them enough of a chance to be aware of your existence?
