    Don't get me wrong im not fully slating it, its just one of those things that 50% will love and 50% wont
    but as i stated before, its a way of cutting down on potential scammers.

    The only issue is how hard it can be to come by a genuine "like"

    One more question, does it take 3 likes in order to give likes?

    It's really not that hard... There are individual posts with more than 50 likes, and many, many thousands of users already had the required 3 likes on the first day because of the import. 3 isn't a terribly high bar when it comes down to it... 1,000 sure... or even 100 you could argue might be hard. But 3? Not really... unless you *really* have nothing of value to contribute (at which point it's working as designed... since that is the goal). As of right now, there have been 20,141 different users giving 408,781 likes to 44,298 unique users.


    Yep... would be a little silly if 3 unestablished users could just like trade to get themselves established. :)

    As DP have made clear, you are not a valued member. You are required to go to other parts of the forum and post until someone likes you 3 times. Or you can pay for Premium Membership which in general isnt of any value to the casual user.


    Once you have 3 likes you can go back to buying and selling and never have to visit any other part of the forum again. Until the next change :)

    Do you have a system in place to ensure the 3 like system isn't abused. I don't mean in the buying and selling of likes but the other way around. Say for example someone really wanting a member off DP they could have an old useless account with likes and give that user tens or hundreds of likes and you may see it as that user having 'purchased' them when in actual fact they haven't?

    Or is this me just over thinking things?

    No, he is not. Just check how many likes in this section has been given to the same members by the same users for not that contributing posts.

    What you are seeing you unhappy malcontent, is like minded members simply agreeing with each other. Has it never occurred to you that in life people often demonstrate consensus? This in no way suggests any type of collusion, but rather members with the same vision, temperment and philosophic outlook.
    Please do us all a favor and stop with your *constant* complaining!

    Rules are that you are not allowed to give the like for the same type of posts, to the same users - ban.

    Maybe you would do all thread creators favor if you stop your constant spam ;).

    O.K. I'm *not* going to get into a back and forth with you. These types of arguments in no way help these threads but....I at least attempt to help members when I can. You on the other hand simply complain. Yet you accuse me of spam. That is akin to the frying pan calling the kettle grimy ass!

    Well, not everyone agrees with you ;). Look about what they were talking before I posted a comment, it's all connected.

    P.S. Do you always have to add something like:
    It's so immature!

    It is the worst money grubbing tactic I have seen on the internet, time to go to the warrior forum

    $125 for 'premium' membership?

    sure.....

    You closed the poll the same day, hardly any time to get that much feedback (not that it would have mattered).

    @Intro, I would much prefer to write my posts in French, but alas this is not allowed. English is really not a very expressive language. So to help in this I like to use colorful metaphors when I can. In this thread you have used "stupid" "spammer" "crap" and I have seen you use other colorful descriptions in other threads. But I won't condemn you for it as I give you the right to express yourself as you see fit.:)
    Anyway back to topic: has your opinion changed at all on the 3 like rule?.......haaa!

    I hope I haven't offended you.. come on, have I said you are stupid - no, these words are nothing comparing to yours.
    Someone else also asked me the same, the answer is no.

    I think all his posts seem worse because it just looks like his avatar is bitching and complaining.

    You're funny :). Off-topic: Do you know who is the person on the avatar?
