The like button is the stupidest thing I’ve ever seen. It’s turned the board into Facebook. And also the more you have the more you’re attacked over it by insecure posters who value themselves by a stupid like.

I’m usually on my phone so I never see the like counts anyway. Makes it better imo.
This! I actually am always on my phone and had to figure out how to even go look and see where you find that. Considering I always seem to have someone disagreeing, I was surprised to have any.

Look at the posting “legends” on here and you will see it takes more than likes to add real value. You can get likes with kittens and boobs- no complaints here for the latter. Anyone can be a kiss (_\_) for likes, but you have to be a little bit controversial and actually think to add value and join that group. Likes alone won’t get you there. I would say around 60-70% is the sweet spot.
Morg is the exception of course with just the right mix of boob to original thought.

164%. That seems obscenely high, but I don't post that often and when I do it's only when I have something worth saying. So I end up making a few long post a month (usually about football) and they get a ton of "likes". For people that post frequently (especially as responses to other posts) getting that kind of number is going to be extremely difficult.

So it's kind of an apples and oranges situation. I don't think you can completely judge the quality of a poster simply by likes attained. You also have to look at frequency and type of post.

This board is tough by most standards. You can post about anything on the football board and if it’s positive the likes flow. It’s like TN basketball. Lower expectations breeds good manners.

I had over 6,000 post before the like feature. And I’m too lazy to do the math right now. Lol

Edit: 75%

I have almost twice as many likes as I do posts...
Hmmmmm



Someone else can do the math :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:
Wouldn't that be nearly 200%? I've always bragged to you regarding your post/like ratio lol now you can boast!

I had something like 10,100 posts before the “likes” became a feature. I was away from this board for quite a while. I “liked” the dislike feature in the old system. I wish that was still an option.

How do you all know how many posts you made before likes started? You all guessing or can you find that somewhere?

I call it like I see it...like it or lump it:pimp:


I troll sometimes though. I mean I like to troll. I'm addicted to trolling ok?

I don't bother with statistics and trivial junk.
I am doing research on how to double my Billion Dollars in the bank.
I'm thinking I have to double my monthly bank robberies.:stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

Divide your 'likes' by your total number of posts. Maybe not scientifically accurate because people post in different forums, just thought it could be a fun thread.

I'm at 67%
I have no idea. I don’t say much that is controversial so doubt I have many either way.
