How many GQ's can a question get?

I saw a question from a long time ago that had I believe 294 GQ’s so I’m curious is there a limited amount of GQ’s? I don’t have a link to the question.

No limit ! All have to be from different jellies.
There’s no limit. However, only the first 5 GQs are possible to count toward the recipients lurve score. Also, we each have only 100 points to award to each jelly. Once you’ve maxed out on a given jelly, your GQs and GAs won’t count toward that jelly’s lurve score.
That’s great Photoshop . . . .
That is a great photoshop or from the old days of Fluther.
@Brian1946 Every time that one surfaces, I laugh out loud.
@Hawaii_Jake
You and I both have 1 Cake in the Frizzer award, and I have no idea which of my questions received it.
Do you know which one of yours got it?
^^ I have it too but it’s one of the “secret awards” that they never told us about how to get.
@Hawaii_Jake 100 lurve per Jelly? That seems unlikely to me, given the high totals some of us have.
@Zaku. That’s definitely true. That’s why your lurve accrues more slowly as time goes on.
Is it 100 lurve, or 100 GQ’s plus 100 GA’s, so more like 800 potential?
Do your math again @Zaku !
100 lurve point total for any activity from any other jelly.
@Zaku It’s 100 lurve. Not only that, but the first 5 GQs or GAs are the only ones with potential to count.
To prove it, I just have you a GA on each of your last 2 answers in this thread, but your lurve total did not change. I’m maxed out on you. I have no more points to give you.
You can only get 100 lurve from GQs and GAs? does the limit reset?
Thanks @Hawaii_Jake.
I just tried the same with you, and saw the same thing.
I suppose that indicates there have been many more lurkers giving out lurve, than I thought.
@KRD No. You’re misunderstanding. Each jelly has only 100 points to give to each other jelly through any combination of GAs or GQs. I have only 100 points to award you, and you only have 100 points to award me. I have already given 100 points to @Zaku, and they have done the same for me. The only way to grow lurve is to engage with as many jellies as possible and to encourage newcomers to participate.
In the end, it’s just a bit of fun. Lurve and the awards are just for fun. They don’t mean much.
As an aside, it’s still feels like a nice vote of confidence to see a large number of GAs for a post of one’s own even if they don’t push up your lurve score. I don’t withhold giving out GAs or GQs for tactical reasons even if they don’t move the dial.
I’m the author of the greatest question on Fluther, and I can confirm that @Brian1946‘s image is 100% real :D
I guess it is good that you can only get so much lurve from a question otherwise you would have a million!
