I agree about the word upvote. How about cdttc? :)

Huh? Oh I get it: CircleDotsToTheClockwise!!! yes yes.

lil  ·  3424 days ago  ·  link  ·  

Yes, let's verbify "Circle Dots to the Clockwise" -- c'mon now, change the original post!

Meanwhile: thoughtful posters will accumulate more bits. Note my comment above has already four cdttc's -- so if they were in the donation system, I would have more bits to give away to others. Cool. Unfortunately, from what I can tell, none of those cdttc's added to my bitcoinage. -

EDIT just checked again: now I have 35010.4, up from 35000. Wow. Should I quit my dayjob?

2ND EDIT and 8 hours later: 35055.200000000004

I am so rich.

I think the colloquial word is "boop"

rezzeJ  ·  3424 days ago  ·  link  ·  

Honestly, 'boop' sounds lame. It's a bit 'meme-y'.

I agree.

What about Circle Dotting or just Dotting?

CraigEllsworth  ·  3421 days ago  ·  link  ·  

"Circle dotting" reminds me of the rhyme from elementary school (to be spoken while drawing on someone's arm): "Circle, circle, dot, dot; now I've got my cootie shot!"

Maybe if you fill up someone's hubwheel you're giving them cooties? :|

you think? i mean it's not official by any means. it's just something i saw and liked and it makes talking about hubski irl easier (to the like...1 person i talk to it about irl)

I'm 1000% on board for calling it booping a post.

arguewithatree  ·  3424 days ago  ·  link  ·  

i love it. i don't remember who came up with it, but that sure is what it feels like. it's gentle and less competitive than an upvote.

boop!

Ok, just added cdttc. :)

    EDIT just checked again: now I have 35010.4, up from 35000. Wow. Should I quit my dayjob?

Yes, I think we all should.

Then those cdttc'ers don't yet have bits to give.
