and I don't think it was Underdog who started it

Yes i did, before all this happened. When dude was making 1000 words post about some players evaluation or smth like that, and had worse rating then 20:1, i usually didnt bothered to read that post...

You now have a 0.77:1 post to And1 ratio. TANKNATION has a 0.366:1 ratio. Are you both god posters?

I mean, you both could be the smartest people on here, but I guess you now see it's not really correlated with poster intelligence and insight. It's more a gesture of community, of mutual understanding and sharing of opinion.

Thats what im adresing. Before you started to trow this thing around like candy, neither me not TANKNATION had that ratio. That 0.77:1 is wrong, but not i did it, you did it. Its not correlated with posters inteligence because you and other people made it uncorrelated, took good thing and tr it uot of window. Now mods can easy remove that button or rename it "InternetHighFive" like some poster said. Before that its had some purpose and actually were correlated with poster inteligence (atleast about bball)

The truth is, not everyone here has the time to go through hundreds and thousands of post. Its not about getting recognition for what you're saying, rather making it easy to sort through everything when you don't necessarily have the time to read what everyone is saying. That being said, all these post are subjective. Just because your post does or doesn't get and 1's, doesn't make 1 persons opinion more valid then another. Its great to show each other love, but what the OP is saying is that the purpose of the and 1 is nullified when its thrown around. That being said, its playoffs time, and everyone is generally happy after a win so there's gonna be a lot of that around this time.

Thank you, that was exactly my point, you explained it very accurate. But as ussual with Raptors board - noone wanna listen, everyone wanna and1 everything... aw well Raps in 10, bring it home...

So I And1'd your post just now as a gesture of understanding, like I understand your point and agree. Marked it as a post worth reading, so to speak. This sort of the usage of And1's you are looking for, correct?

Also, would you have And1'd the post you quoted as it explained in more detail what you meant in your original post? Simply curious is all.

Yap, worth reading is right words. And yes ballonuhommie post got and1 from me.

I know exactly what you mean. I actually agree that the And1 should be used like you say, because that's how I use them, but it's already gone out the window like you said. TANKNATION especially just And1's everybody and gets And1's in return. Not that I complain, but it's just what he does.

I don't really participate in the "mass And1's for the hell of it" movement (so to speak), so I don't know why you're grouping me in with them. Hopefully just a misunderstanding

Is this a thread to get free and1's?

I see we share the same mentality on And1 usage. Good to know! :nod:

When I see "and 1" I think of all the times I'd get hacked on my shot/layup I'd scream out ANDDDDDDDDD 1!!!

depends on what you've had to say I guess. Have you written anything that would jumpstart discussion in a way?

Why am I giving And1 accumulating advice on a forum... :oops:

Get that gabijjj outta heaaa

This is like complaining about getting upvotes on reddit, complaining about getting poked on facebook, or getting e-mails on an e-mail client.

Wish i got to this thread earlier. Passed out from reading realgm on a head rush til like 330 :banghead:

Let us ride our win high

I'm here for the and1's as well.

Its funny as soon as I see some one with a ton of and1s I know he comes from the raptors board. We are generous and it should stay that way.

raptors_star · Post #78 » by **raptors_star** » Mon Apr 28, 2014 1:48 pm

And1's for everyone!

protothe · Post #79 » by **protothe** » Mon Apr 28, 2014 1:48 pm

Irony of thread is the fact that OP was probably looking to up his own And1 count.

Well played sir.

if you have a low and1 it usually means that you were here before they started with the and1 thing so I think its actually like a badge of honour to have a low and1 ratio. It means you were here before the hype. Oh wait, that doesn't apply to you.
