Considering you are one of the few non anonymous posters here it's different for you I'm sure but the concept of caring about being liked on an anonymous board is weird to me. I'm here to get info and read opinions and share a few....a popularity contest is at the bottom of my list of things I care about and I'm sure my posting style reflects that. In real life, sure....we all care about being liked but this is far from real life. There are posters here who are clearly looking for likes and affirmation and I find those to be some of the most annoying posters.
I think you're overall one of the better posters here and someone I'd definitely like having beers with but as much as it kills me to side with those 2, your "everyone likes me" posts do come off as pretty douchey.....some things just don't need to be said, especially when dealing with a turd like Northern. Just my 2 cents
