What does it take to win your lurve?

A funny, useful, wise, lurvtastic answer

Good writing, the ability to make me smile or laugh, good information, a novel take on something, or the ability to face up to a troll or an attack with style will get my lurve.

A question that I had always wanted to ask but couldn’t put into words, a question that is really well-stated and thought-out, or a question that makes me laugh in a good way will buy my lurve.

To be in my Fluther you need to be someone who writes interesting and well-thought out answers, someone who I think I could enjoy meeting in the real world, and/or someone who demonstrates the ability to be passionate yet mature.

I never do anything just to get lurve.

If I have learned I lurve.
If I have laughed and it is not a mean spirited comment I will often lurve.
If I have been challenged to really THINK- I lurve.

For me, it is all about the quality of the answers. I grade on the curve a little bit in the sense that I tend to like to reward new users with encouraging lurve if they give a good answer.

I am less likely to give GQs. If I was a Fluther god, I might think GQs should score higher than GAs, maybe 6 points? My criteria are much like yours: Usually it has to be thought provoking. Occasionally, something heart warming.

I tend to be remiss about adding people to my fluther. I do it if someone consistently gives interesting, thoughtful answers, and I know I like to read their posts.

@Marina I agree that the GQ’s should have a higher score than the GA’s. I’m much less likely to give a GQ.

i don’t know how to lurve or leave lurve

Be clever, be funny or be both.

It takes a solid answer to win my lurve. It takes a history of such solid answers to be in my Fluther. I haven’t added anyone in a long time though.

i just kick ass 24/7 and hope someone likes it.

Flattering comments made my way.

@Lalalime Whenever you click the “Great Answer” link under someone’s comment, or award someone a “Great Question”, it adds “lurve” points to their score. Also, adding someone to your fluther adds two lurve points to their score.

@Harp I thought he was just kidding about that

If it’s any of:

1. Something I was going to answer
2. Something clever
3. Well thought-out and thorough
4. Novel/different perspective

@AstroChuck Oh Chuck! Let me stroke your big tentacles!
@phoenyx ^^^I bet that’s a different perspective than yours ;-)

Support of a point I’m making will do it.

@SirBailey I totally agree with you! ;-)

I am not sure when I give a great answer. It seems that I can see some answers which after reading it I feel wow such a great answer & he/she deserve a thumb up :).

It just depends…

IF AND WHEN I POOP ON YOU!

When another commenter says what I would have liked to then I don’t write anything

A point of view I’d not considered but see being very beneficial

Something too hilarious to pass up

A comment by someone I’m not necessarily in agreement with but who is making a great argument without being an asshole.

daloon’s rump

@hungryhungryhortence…..

@AstroChuck You certainly are looking quite dapper today :)

I believe that anytime anyone chooses to leave an answer, they make a positive contribution to Fluther, so I lurve every answer that doesn’t contain swear words sometimes even really good ones that do.

witty if it’s in someone else’s thread

useful or at least a good effort if it’s in a question I asked (I don’t normally do opinion polls, I ask questions looking for actual answers, so whoever gives me facts gets lurve).

I generally push whatever buttons the voices tell me to…

lurve related or not

I give it to answers that answer the question well, not necessarily ones that I agree with, not insults that I may agree with, none of that. I give it to quality answers to the question.

It takes very little to win my lurve. If you’ve posted a good answer to a question or made a good comment in a thread, you’ve taken time out of your busy schedule to make a positive and important contribution to Fluther and that in itself is worth my lurve. And thank you for your efforts also.

@YARNLADY Shit! I guess I’m up the creek.
Am I a bad person for that?

I’ll lurve if the answer was clearly well thought out and makes sense.
I’ll lurve if the answer hits me and makes me laugh – or cry . You know who you are.

<—-agrees with Blondesjon, the voices know what to do.

@Clair, LURVE for that answer! See what I mean?!!! :)

Shameless pandering ;-)

If it makes me laugh; if it makes an interesting point; if it makes me think; if it answers my question in the spirit it was asked.

lurve? what? ughhh
wouuld people lurve me for telling a joke…
wife and cereal
A woman calls her husband at work one day and asks him, “Can you help me when you get home?” “Sure,” he replies. “What’s the problem?”
“Well, I started a really hard puzzle and I can’t even find the edge pieces.” “Look on the box,” he said. “There’s always a picture of what the puzzle is.” “It’s a big rooster,” she said. The husband arrives home and tells his wife, “Okay, put the corn flakes back in the box.”

poems

i lurve anything that makes me smile, that is really well-written, or that i really agree with. sometimes someone will post something from a perspective that i don’t agree with, but if they wrote their answer with respect, i will lurve it anyway.

@tiffyandthewall you seems to be fair against other opinions. I like that :).
