Yeah, I can't think of any posts I've paid attention to that were trying to "game" the "like system." I don't know why other than naive attention seeking validation since I don't think there's much support for this forum connecting people to their social medias where metrics arguably "matter" more.
CORRECTION: I think there were in the past some cliques that used to solidarity vote each other but that's died down to be as far as I know non existent over the past few years.
You’re kidding. Who would care enough to make a “thank pact” on DDB?!? 🤣😂🤣
Edit: Don’t get me wrong, it’s nice to be thanked, but why make a clique for it? Especially here?!?
I used to but then the upvote function has been linked to the Portraits not loading issue. I have stopped upvoting forum posts since this was theorized back then and have been passively looking for comments I have upvoted and removed that upvote.
I didn’t know about that. So far I haven’t had a problem. (Knock on wood.)
I use the like button a lot in one tread in particular because I like all the little backstories everyone posts, but I only use it sometimes anywhere else.

I do use it, but I use it sparingly. I upvote things ly if I think they are exceptional and beyond the norm of what one would expect on the forums.
