The Like system needs to go. It's a perverse by-product of the worst aspects of social media and it is proven to have ill psychological effects for people, including social media addiction. I'd gamble there are people on this forum who are so obsessed with it that they subscribe to VPN services just to create false accounts to like their own posts. It's an epidemic. I would also argue that it has an adverse affect on the post volume of the forum. How many people have just clicked Like because it's easier than typing a response? Likes are bad. Lay off the dopamine, folks. Ban the Like System on TGG.
While I agree with your post, sometimes it saves me from duplicating the same thoughts in a specific thread. 8 likes equals the reduction of 8 similar thoughts, and members can actually type responses on other threads that merit more conversation. Just my opinion of course.
If by banned, you mean reduced to a Level 1 and cast out to the courtyard with the rest of the subhuman scum, no?
Damn you people. This is a serious affliction that affects many of your fellow Jets fans. We're talking mental health here.
I tried so hard to Like the post but I was worried about the world ending in an irony-driven paradox. This is exactly how we will all go out if we are in fact living in an alien child's reality warping simulation.
I think this thread was a ploy to get likes, trying to catch ncjet in the "like" statistic. I will admit to hitting the "like" button because I was too lazy or maybe too intellectually challenged to reply to a post.
This might be more convincing if it wasn't coming from the top Like-getter on the forum. . We're here for you, bro.
Careful , your envy is showing. did someone flex their like count to prompt this thread? Haven’t been engaged all that much here recently.
I think we have all seen a few peons bragging about their like count. Peons was going to be people but peons is more fitting. Autocorrect actually worked.
