Well done 🙂 More kudos than posts, are there any other examples close to this? Maybe it is the diary thread about the government?

Boris used to post gorgeous photos in the photo threads and they always got lots of Kudos

I don't think it is necessary to draw attention to posters kudos. Especially posters who aren't currently posting.. My opinion only.

We all have the ability to look at others kudo total if we choose to.

On the subject, speaking generally, - others scoffing (negative way) about who gives others kudos seems a very petty thing to do.

Did you check under the bed too ?

Am3 I didn't mean to cause any offence I was just reading the thread and thinking what an achievement

You didn't cause any offence Donna, none at all - well done to Boris, hope he feels very proud.

Am3 must have mondayitis, or the tall poppy syndrome lolol - Sandra 🙂

Shouldn't that make her an expert?  Was there something a while back about expert member or top member where your kudos counts for more?  I can't find it now.

"Praising and rewarding are deeply ingrained habits, particularly as that's how most of us were raised and educated. It may take practice to replace them with appreciation and acknowledgment, but the latter feels more fulfilling, and can bring you and your child closer."

"My kid’s kinder class uses a star chart rewarding good behavior. It is on an individual basis, so the kids all have a different number of stars. Ten stars gets a prize"

Do you honestly believe that amassing  a bunch of Kudos is indicative of an ability to make meaningful and RESEARCHED  posts?. I have seen them dished out (automatically?) for nothing more than just a URL, or a C&P with no original contribution, which in essence would mean that a third party is being "rewarded" not the (lazy)  poster who has written nothing (original).

Kudos awarding  is a good eBay social   engineering tactic, similar to sellers coloured stars, but within some threads here it is nothing more than  a mindless reinforcement of a political opinion, to the point that I refer to it as auto-Kudos swap tagging.

Anyway DY,  this should stir up the sisters, which I would assert was your intention.

Kudos................. looks innocent enough................. useful if you don't want to write that you agree............just click the kudos.

It seems even that innocent click is food for denigration or ridicule by some.
