In summary, the conversation revolved around the "likes" page on the Physics Forums and specifically mentioned @mfb's approaching milestone of 5000 "likes". Some users expressed interest in watching the top 20 members on the page who have put in a lot of time and effort on the site. Others joked about the unfair advantage of being a cute puppy dog and how it may affect the number of "likes" received. The conversation also touched on the importance of the "likes" statistic and how it can be an indicator of the effort put into solving complex questions. Some users also shared their thoughts on a song referenced in the conversation. In summary, the conversation was a mix of congratulations, humor, and appreciation for the "likes" page

Thanks guys. BTW, I half expected some of the other Mentors to prank me by going back and deleting a few of my earliest posts each day just to keep my post number flat for a couple of weeks. Shhh, don't nobody tell them I mentioned that... :smile:
Nah, deleting posts is too much work... What's all this talk about having > 50,000 posts?

On the "Most Likes" page, I see that @Drakkith and @phinds are once again right next to each other as they make their way to 3000 "likes" which is labeled as "Hello Mr. President" in the Physics Forums Trophy Awards. Congratulations and thank you to them and all those who have reached or are about to reach this mark. :)

That trophy will be given out quite often in the near future. @jim hardy and @davenn have 2950+ already, and @vanhees71 and @Orodruin have more than 2900 as well. The latter will probably be the first to get more than 1000 trophy points with the additional 60.

It looks like it will soon have 4 more members. Maybe they should put in some tennis courts or a swimming pool.
 
  • #82
The tennis court and the swimming pool area will need extensions as well, but that is an independent issue. Maybe we can sacrifice one hole of the golf court.

LOL. I had to google that one. I hadn't tuned into the TV when President Trump invented that word. :) And congratulations to you @Orodruin !

Congratulations @vanhees71 ! You made it to the President's lounge (3000 "likes"). I've got a long way to go, but I'm hoping to join you there in about 6 or 7 years. :)

Thanks! I'm honored. I hope at the president's lounge there's no Trump to call everything I post "fake news" ;-)).

I wouldn't take it personally. All science is fake news for this administration.

Let's stay away from politics here.

@phinds and @Drakkith, who were in a race at 2500 likes already, are still close together, they have more than 2950 now.

Congratulations to @phinds and @Drakkith who should both be in the President's lounge with 3000 "likes" very shortly. phinds presently has 2999 "likes", and Drakkith has 2994, so it looks like they might arrive there on the same day. :)

Well, @Drakkith I found a few of your posts that I could genuinely like and I kicked you over the finish line. It was hard, 'cause you're really not all that likeable. :-p

I on the other hand am a cute, adorable, puppy dog.

Numerology: I hit 13,000 posts and 3,000 likes on the same day. The difference is 10,000. It's space aliens I tell you !

One more post and @Drakkith is at 19,000. At least it isn't Friday the 13th. :)

It doesn't need to be Friday the 13th to be afraid of that slobbering beast that haunts this forum...
