When I went to my first classes,I would respond to whatever is going on loudly and without fear.

People will laugh,and I'd talk to girls.They would be receptive,and and I would progress as normal.Yet sometimes when I do say something,they remain silent(Possibly laughing inside as not to seem disrespectful).

But that is not important.

What is important:

"Is being a class clown DHV or DLV when all is said and done"

I have my money on "situationally dependent".

Thoughts?

When I was still in school I was the class clown.
Just remember, you have to draw the line of being "funny" and just being "goofy". I consider myself a very funny person, but in the last 2 years I've been adjusting my humor (unknowingly until recently building my C&F with women to great levels) so that my jokes and comments are more "precision timing" versus a shotgun approach of opening my mouth whenever an opportunity came along.

So in this case "less is more", pick your time to shine and make them remember it, but don't do it so much that people will think "Oh Blackbull is just talking again...".

Also, remember when you make a joke to make them laugh WITH you, not AT you. Clowns get laughed at, PUA's laugh with.
/2 cents

The best class clown will operate like a crime boss, eg. In my Chem class in grade 9 i started off by being funny and goofy. But i saw it geting me into trouble, so i developed a way to get other people to do the silly stuff and then i woud get the credit for being funny. At one point i had 2 guys breakdancing at the back of the room while the teacher had his back to us. One of the guys was a football jock aswell.
