There is a ratio of players to DMs of 20 players to 1 DM. To get noticed, you have to stand out amongst the crowd. I am not trying to schoolmarm you, that is just the reality. Literally, you have to show that you are organized, ready to play, easy to get along with.  No idea of your location, time zone.
(cdt) and what can i do to show people i am organized and ready to play (btw im nice so its not like im a jerk0

See that 60 people have viewed this. No one else answered. That is 58 other people who are not interested in even saying hello to you. Look at other threads where people introduce themselves. "There are, every day, at least a few dozen New posts by new arrivals, of these "Hello, I want to play, this is my experience, this is a little about me, this is the game style I want to play."  They are getting answers and offers. There is a 14 year old DM who said, "Hey, I am 14, I read all the rules, I want to run a cool game of heroes in action:" People started answering him.   There are people looking for games that are dark horror, or comedy or just to learn how to play. like you are. I am not running D&D 5e this month. I just like to come on here and greet people and say hello, because I am a retired old gamer.  I like to help to grow the hobby. Nobody knows anything about you, other than what you type, how you type it, do you use punctuation. Did you specify what rules you are looking for? Okay, 5e. and you live in CDT. That is  "All We Know" Other new people here tell people exactly what they are looking for, and put in the effort... and get responses. It is like you are standing in a line at a casting call for a film.  There are 20 other actors there.  your turn comes up, they say, okay, what can you do, why do you want to be in this movie, in this game... or what kind of a role are you looking for. What do you tell them?  Look at the other threads in LFG and see how this works. Running a game can take a little bit of effort, but the best ones take a lot of effort. People running games that take a lot of effort to run are seeking players who put in a lot of work in their application, because in the end, this is all a guessing game where we try and guess from applications to the game, .. and we might get 20 of them a week, or even more. who to hire / bring on board for the 4 or 5 places in the game. Good luck.
Additionally, your profile Bio area says nothing. Just that you have made 4 posts here.  This thread, one other. Blank slate. you are like a ghost that people cannot see.
