And just out of interest how many people looked at it and didn’t like it? 

My message has been viewed over 27k times so far so getting close to St Mary’s capacity, with 260 likes currently. Just because someone hasn't clicked the like button it doesn't mean they don't like it and there is no dislike button. So impossible to tell how those 27k people spilt on the idea. I did say it would split the fanbase in the message.

1) Maths clearly not your strong point! The actual % is 0.96%

2) Just because someone hasn't clicked the like button it doesn't mean they don't like it and there is no dislike button. So impossible to tell how those 27k people spilt on the idea. I did say it would split the fanbase in the message.

3) Plus it was clearly a jokey post as I even named the fallacy with a wink in the post.

I disliked it.

 

And only my vote counts.

It’s definitely split the fan base, 99+% v -1%  😂😂😂😂😂

 

you could argue it’s been a long time since the fan base has been so united mind 😂😂😂😂😂

1) Are you still recovering from your maths fail?

Big difference from your 0.009% and the actual answer of 0.96%

2) Why are you unable to grasp that not clicking like on a post on X does not mean you don't agree with it?

But it could be that everybody who read the post and didn't click on it thought it is bollox. Without a "dislike" button tere is no way to quantify the ratio of responses, and even then there would be a proportion who don't respond. The real answer lies somewhere between you and Turkish, so neither of you gets a putty medal.

[The Kraken]

A 1% view/like ratio seems pretty abject.

Surely in your black and white world, if someone doesn't like something then they don't agree with it.

That's just simple logic gates isn't it?

Absolute nonsense

People can see posts on X/Twitter and not click on the like button. That does not mean they do not agree with that has been said. 

[The Kraken]

And I’m sure thousands did exactly that in this case, no doubt 👍

Logic gates dictate the state is either yes (like) or no (don't like).

Just because the answer doesn't massage your ego, doesn't mean it is incorrect.

Absolute nonsense. It is not only yes or no for the following reason.

People are not under an obligation to click like a post on Twitter/X and there is no opposite button to dislike a post. Simply not clicking like on a post does not mean you dislike it or don't agree with it. It simply means you didn't click like. Puzzling how you can't grasp that.

Your argument would hold water if there was a dislike button. There isn't as you agree.

Therefore everyone not liking a post, by default, is against it.

Very simple logic. I thought you were a logical person. Apparently you aren't.

Saints Web forum also has a like button and no dislike button. You read hundreds of posts on here, do you dislike every post you read on this forum that you don't click the like button on?

Technically it’s a love button (or a heart ). Which is not the same.

The buttons on Saints Web and Twitter/X are both heart shaped and serve the same purpose.

Love or like?

I mean, it’s a big difference. If less than 1% of people like your post, then that’s a bit of a tragedy. But, phrasing it differently, if almost 1% of people love your post. Well, that’s slightly less tragic.

It could make such a change in perception.

- It is a heart shaped button on Twitter

- It is a heart shaped button on Saints Web

- Whether it is labeled like or love they effectively mean the same thing... that you are in favour of the post. Love and like for such buttons are interchangeable.

You deny the buttons are hearts on both websites? 

Please answer the questions...

1) You read hundreds of posts on Saints Web, do you dislike every post you read on this forum that you don't click the heart button on?

2) If you read hundreds of posts on X, do you dislike every post you read that you don't click the heart button on?

[Turkish]

imagine being someone who over 99% of people who saw your post couldn’t be arsed to respond. They cared so little about it they didn’t even make the effort to respond. The post, your effort and opinion is just there, existing but over 99% of people who came across are so apathetic to it they couldn’t be arsed to take a split second to respond. Imagine being that guy

Twitter (X) is a cesspit tbf. I’ve had a lifelong aversion to it. Playing for attention in it is awful behaviour IMO.

What is interesting MLG is boasting about his less than 1% like response rate yet my posts on this thread have generated a far higher percentage of responses than his twitter post and that’s before we even factor in the people who will like my posts on here who haven’t responded (using MLG logic)

as you know as current holder of the most laughing emoji reactions to a single saintsweb post I  am someone who knows a lot about getting reactions on social media, in addition to my success on here only last week 28% of my Instagram followers responded to a post I made. 

it seems that when it comes to garnering responses on social media yet again Turkish beats MLG 🎉🎉🍾🍾👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

Writing 15k+ posts doesn't in any way mean I read 100s as you claim.

Plenty of posters on here post without reading what others write.

Another MLG fail.

This thread is great - so many fails all over the place on here from misunderstanding logic gates (there is no absolute on X, it's not Grindr, so not liking a post doesn't mean you dislike it, it can mean you are ambivalent to it, you may not even be able to read it in it's native language), to a like conversion rate of less than 1% being considered anything but abysmal.

It really shows what the human mind is capable of 🙄

In all seriousness, everyone involved should be thoroughly ashamed of themselves.
