Evening fellow MODS and admin. I do not mind not meeting the criteria and having the tag but it sound like the member isn’t liked personally not professionally. I know I will probably always have the tag as you say Dan. I remove bad content and swear words and put people right on bad advice. Only a thought mate.
 
These tags are automatically dished out so are bang on. Out of 12,500 accounts, only 6 have the unliked. And it's called that, because nobody has clicked like on their post.

Before we had 'unlike' there was no option to confirm whether a post was bad, other than not like them. So as you post more, but get no likes, that should have been a sign lol

Now a tag is based on it, it's showing people what the crack is. We've found it handy staff wise as it shows the trolls who go around arguing.

That all said, we've had a forum port-over from one software to another, so some users on some forums have lost some like counts. So I'd need to work out what the score is there.
 
You're not far behind there mate: 23,000 posts and 6000 likes. Another 1000 posts with no likes and you'd end up with it!

Just working something out. BRB.
 
right who can i pee of so a i get a load of neg ratings

so harv doesnt feel alone
 
@Harvest Fields you'd need be on 2,395 likes right now to have it. You're on 2,188.

So I bet you might not have been so low before to be fair mate. Still not brilliant.

I think we're just not friendly or helpful over here. Sparkys are getting the estemeed. Loads of them.

Tilers get it even if I set it higher.

This guy doesn't speak english!!!!! He's italian.

His posts are all written in italian, and converted to english his end, and posted on the forum in gobblygook. He still to this day calls a thread a 'trend' as there isn't a direct translation for thread. It comes out spindle or something lol

So we need to be better over here.

And that's just proved it IMO. We don't have any members with less than 1:0.25 on any of the other forums.

(January you came on board Lous just looked).

Soooooo - I'm gonna remove it for staff. So staff dont get it. We're gonna say that the reason is, we get disliked for telling people off.

But really, we need to watch what we're saying to members. Arguing with them doesn't help mate to be fair. I worked that out years ago. Nobody clicked like on my shizzle. lol

Anyway, let's move on. And make this place awesome.

We can write some cool how-to related stuff. Make a thread doing that, and they get a like clicked every month ever years after, because people find it via a search engine, register, like it, reply to it, it comes back into current discussion again, etc etc.

That's an awesome way increase the ratio.

I've given up on tilers my ratio is 1:0001 I rate lol - That's the forum I started first, and the one I bollock A LOT of people on all the time. Also lost some in forum software transfers and things. Which I was wondering if happened here. But I don't think it did I just dug around. I have a working copy of the old forum, still with the likes system running that it had, and it ported over okay here.
 
Sooooo. Back on topic lol

;)

I've stopped staff getting caught in it. I'll clean up the thread (in future if it's staff issue post it in staff forum) and we'll go again lol
 
It's okay.

You need to write GOOD posts. That are on topic, on the topic the thread starter made. Not the troll half way down a long thread who is baiting you more than likely.

You can increase your like count easily soon. By adding some videos to the video area. I'm clicking a new button +3 like points per click (its a little winner trophy) for every one uploaded. And it doesn't even count as a post. It counts as a media item with likes in it. ;) ;)

But ongoing, just post nicer posts. I can say anything nice. Even horrible things.

Also learn the sandwich rule..... (Management Technique this is)

You're a really good moderator
You posted Rubbish
But your posts recently since us being on this software are better and are getting even better.

lol See what I did there.

Trap a members bollocking amongst some good stuff. And they still click like then. :p
