Pub likes are only worth about 2% of a real post like, though.The way to build up your total posts and likes is to become a regular member of the Pub. Many threads are like chat rooms there, with flurries of short posts. If you post something strongly political, everyone who agrees with you will like your post. Almost all the top people on ScubaBoard in terms of both total posts and total likes are regular members of the Pub, and most of them rarely post in the suba-related forums.
Over the years, I have participated briefly in the Pub from time to time, but only briefly, and my political views are not among those that get the flurry of likes. I mostly stay away from there.@boulderjohn. Damn, you just ruined my mental vision of you super posters. Now I am traumatized! I guess I'll just have to go to a real pub, AKA the neighborhood bar, for a pint to get over my disillusion.
Wait a minute. Under "Members" it puts Wayward Son on top with over 68,000. Is that not correct?
I can see how frequent Pub posters can rack up a big post count. I've been on SB since late 2007 and have over 10,000. I thought that was a lot. And, I'm usually on more than once daily..being retired. So I don't know how some people have made so many more than me.
Wayward boosts his count by posting countless memes. He doesn't even have to type ONE WORD!! Those shouldn't count! LOLOL!!!Wait a minute. Under "Members" it puts Wayward Son on top with over 68,000. Is that not correct?
