Wait, there's a script you can run for that? Tell me you're serious because that is hilarious.


I hope you're not doing it manually!!!


I clicked every single "like button" for my likebomb. So its manual.

Of course... there is even instructions in this same forum and some CCP employees rolling their eyes in the same thread hoping to get their share of the likes.

Huh. Why?

I don't like myself, buddy. There is no reason for me to do so. VWhat?V

I admittedly do link my threads to my squad in Goonfleet, though.


Smile

I wasn't really accusing you of that, not that there is anything truly "wrong" with it to begin with.

Although I can see potential in having a contest to see which is more effective... the "like" script or the Goonfleet "like" juggernaut.

My bet would go on Goonfleet, but I'm an old fashioned kind of guy.

In an interesting turn of events I am allowed to solicit Goonfleet for "likes," thereby pretty much guaranteeing that I will be on the candidate list for the CSM; but, I am not allowed to solicit Goonfleet for "votes," thereby making the chance of me actually being elected a far less certain affair.

Freaky.

Edit: I seem to have gained likes, what were the odds?

I have no problem with people begging for Likes. Also I think the Likes thread is actually helpful because some of the people in the thread are experts in Likes and if you need Like expertise you can always go there.

I am going to kindly point out that if you accept any counsel with regards to Likes and matters related to Likes from anyone other than myself or Mag's then you are doing yourself a disservice.

**** me, the bullshit is thick here.

In less than 24 hours you pulled more than 300 more. By being popular?? lol. If you're going to stand as CSM the FIRST thing you need to do is tell the truth. Nobody is dumb enough to believe this (Well. Besides you).

This is the one reason why the whole CSM selection based on "likes" is totally ****** and any Eve member who bases their CSM choices and votes on this system deserves everything they get.

I agree that CSM selection based on "likes" is silly. It seems we have at least something in common. Smile

Out of curiosity, exactly what sort of foul play do you suspect me of doing?
