Do you give lurve as a way of saying Thanks?

Asked by jca (36062points) February 9th, 2011

Sometimes when I ask a question I will give lurve to everyone who answers, as a way of saying thanks. Also, sometimes, in the spirit of Fluther, when there’s a “welcome to the mansion” question for another user I will give lurve to spread the lurve around.

Do you give lurve as a way of saying thanks? Do you give lurve to be in the happy party atmosphere?

Yeah, in those situations I’m pretty free with lurve. I’m always so pleased that people take the time to answer my Q that I lurve them, unless their answer is mean or unnecessarily inflammatory. Otherwise, it really does need to be a Great Answer or make me laugh. Which I think is great.

I pretty much do in those situations as well. Always when I ask a question as a way to thank everyone for taking the time to answer my questions and sometimes in the ‘party’ threads. I’m not as diligent in those as I am in my questions though.

I give it very freely. See? Who doesn’t like lurve? Didn’t it brighten your day a little bit?

I do give Lurve as a ‘Thank You’ – but also as a ‘good answer’, ‘good question’, ‘I like your style’ or the digital equivalent of oral sex.

@cprevite Any time oral sex is mentioned it gets a GA from me.

@chyna: Did ya feel that “Great Answer”? Did’ja?

chyna's avatar

@cprevite Yes I did!! :-)

@cprevite The digital equivalent of oral sex is a hand job.

I give lurve to say hello, welcome, thanks, that’s funny, that’s interesting, or any mention of Gandhi or Gibran.

No, I write “thanks” as a way of saying thanks.

I give lurve if the answer is good.

I give GAs to everyone who answers my questions (provided they actually answer my questions). I’ll do it in celebration threads too, if I remember. Otherwise, I feel the same way as @JilltheTooth. If you make me laugh or give a really well-thought-out answer, you’re gonna get lurve from me.

Well, I do and to thank you all I am giving you lurve! Now, isn’t that nice? (and if you want to, you can give me lurve in return….only if you want)

I always give lurve as long as the question or answer is helpful and not rude or spam .And I always leave a message of thanks to all who answer .

I don’t give lurve as a thank you but I am quite laid back on what I consider a GA so my lurve is spread around quite freely!

I’m very free with my lurve. But yes, I do tend to give more in those cases.

I’ve noticed that most of the times when I answer a question, it almost always earns at least one lurve point. Therefore, it seems that most everyone gives a lurve to everyone who answers their question.
