I'm relatively new regarding reading the forums and enjoyed it at first. Then I started noticing that all the forum vets had alot more likes than us newbies. I've tried like whoring as much as I can but there seems to be this 'like wall' I can not penetrate. I've decided to push through but alot of my friends who started forums with me have stopped because of this issue.
What is CCP going to do to bridge this 'like gap' between newbies and vet? |

It's common knowledge that if a vet with many likes posts against a newbie with few likes, the vet comes away victorious 9 times out of 10. Many say that the newbie can bring more newbie friends to drown out the vet or find vet friends to guide them in making better content but that hardly addresses the problem at hand.
We must work together to bring attention to this issue and fix it.

This is an extremely serious matter than the CSM takes very seriously indeed.
I think that there is a good argument to be made for a "PLEX for Likes" system, but I think this forum PLEX system should mirror the in-game system: rather than buy likes for PLEX directly from CCP they should be sourced from other players.
Furthermore: In order to prevent the inevitable uncontrollable Like inflation that will inevitably occur, CCP should limit the number of likes that can be gained or granted by any single account. However, I recognise that some players will want to take the risk of losing some of their likes in order for the chance to gain larger numbers by skillfull forum diplomacy or even just good posting.
Therefore I propose that the sub forums be categorised in to "hi-sec" "lo-sec" and "0.0" forums as follows.
In the hi-sec forums (eg: New Citizens Q&A, EVE Information Centre) , you will be able to receive and donate a maximum of 10 likes per account
In lo-sec forums (eg: Crime & punishment, Ships & Fittings) you will be able to receive or donate a maximum of 20 likes per account, but you can also spend one of your likes to remove a like from a post from another player. However you can only spend 1 like per day this way against any one player.
In 0.0 forums (eg: COAD, Market Discussion), the maximum is 50 receive/donates per account, and there is no restriction on how you can use your likes to remove likes by other players.

You can have plenty of likes within a few months and then plan to get more likes as you progress and your posts get better. Eventually you'll be fine.
Remember someone with high like and a rubbish thread is not as a good as someone with low likes and a the right thread in the right situation. |

It goes without saying that CCP should also add a bounty system where you can like-bounty another player's forum account in order to encourage other players to like-gank him.

My muffled laughter to some of the responses to the thread, especially the one quoted, have raised suspicion that I am, in fact, not working hard at the moment.

Nothing. You don't have enough likes for CCP to care. The guy who was sitting next to me in the first nullsec round table who had obviously not had a shower since before boarding his flight to Iceland, you really stank. You know who you are. |

Post interesting threads, interesting and informative replies, be witting and funny or just post what you think that majority of the sheep agree with. All good ways to get likes. 
Personally, i've never agreed with those "like and get likes" threads. Only losers use those to construct fake forum personas. Post with your main, like a BOSS! |

I definitely do not want the Forums to become the pay-to-win cesspit that the actual game has become.
In the forums today we see the classic evolution of the uncharted frontier: it happened in the Wild West of the USA, it happened in null sec in EVE Online, and it is happening in the forums and Evelopedia today. As a new frontier is opened up, the enterprising individuals who are first to enter that space have free range with few restrictions on where they can go and what they can do: resources are plentiful, unclaimed sov is easy to find, unexplored encyclopaedia articles are easy to fill with text.
Over time the barrier to entry increases: there is less wild in the wild west, there is less unclaimed sov in null sec, there are fewer questions unanswered in the Evelopedia, and fewer interesting new topics to discuss which haven't been done to death already.
Ultimately, every like you get today is worth many more likes from a few years ago simply because likes were so readily handed out, and there was new ground to explore on the forums. These days we've just about had it with "why do you create female characters if you're a guy", "I know how to fix AFK cloaking" and "margin trading should be removed from the game." It becomes harder to achieve likes, but that doesn't make the low-like forum poster less powerful or interesting than the high-likes forums whores such as Tippia and Malcanis.
Hang in there, and know that you are appreciated for who you are, not how big your likes count is.

This is why we need a dislike button or block out post button

This also validates a serious need for a forum facing skill area where those that have "copy/paste" skills and "quick witted reply" skills to above Lvl4 can buy and train the "additional like capability" skill which would preempt and CANCEL out other likes ... MID-POST!!! UNLESS The respondent has trained "pre-emptions", the skill that allows the finishing and posting of said post AND inserts a default like regardless of ANY of the skills listed above - however CCP might have to nerf that in the next patch - for as it stands this is too overpowered for the average poster.
Should the postee have "inertia response" trained, (a subsection to forum warrior and goon hater to lvl3) they will then have the capability to organise a bot to automatically remove all likes to the previous 4 posts (having trained it to lvl5 oc) and accrue those likes for himself.
Come on ppl - we need this
I am aware of my own ignorance and have checked my emotional quotient - thanks for asking |
