Observation

Much like offering fried chicken at the church social--but, considerably less tasty.

LOL ... Hahaha ....

I prefer to think of them as candy bars, still waaaaay less tasty, but also with ZERO calories.

Mmm, great idea!

If I hadn't asked the group here, how would I have known that????

There doesn't seem to be anywhere that lists these kinds of information for the site. If you want to know something, you can search, but that isn't as helpful. The best way is to ask a question to the community. Like I did.

Questions are good.

Answers are good.

I had never observed the bars before 2cute made her originating post asking what they represented.

Then, as these forums do, one cat went this way, another went that way, and before long Seattle was in a state of merry emergency, with bars set ablaze.

Fortunately, flops and RussDnails and 2cute brought buns, weiners and marshmallows for roasting as the group settled in around the blazing bars to celebrate our good fortunately.

The row of vertical bars beneath a players name. In your case, right below "Premium Member."

An incentive to love one's neighbor and invite participation.

Okay... I'm lost. What are "bars"?

OK, no unliking 2cute & Russ. Anyone who liked my posts is welcome to try unliking them to see what that might do though.

Agreed! Please don't do that. I can't believe it, I made it to 10 orange bars. Absolutely incredible! All because I was curious about something. Hmm ...

No, no, no, I'm NOT going to unlike any of your posts, you can't make me!

I left my car unlocked last night....just in case....but alas...no zucchini...we make a zucchini slice, the zucchini offers no flavour, but it looks very healthy. We grow beetroot, pumpkin (which is savoury in Australia), tomatoes, broccoli, cauliflower, purple carrots, and lots of herbs. I wonder if I could turn my knittings into anti bird netting, or tiny little jackets for fledgling vegetable (we are coming into spring, with frosty mornings).

Aww, little jackets for vegetables sounds cute. That would work great for lemons & limes in the fridge. It would keep them warmer so when it came to squeezing them, I wouldn't have to soak them in warm water to get them to release their juice.

oh and, Spike? I think it would take waaay to many unlikes for you to lose respect...or is it popularity? Look at us...being the "popular kids"!

don't you be "unliking" 2cute or Russ to find out though! I love how you have applied the term "ratcheting" to what is such a softy, squishy, non mechanical thing! Sometimes I knit. I don't knit for any purpose, or to make something, it's just "a knitting".

While you commit knitting, I commit squash. I like growing squash, and find it fascinating how such an innocuous plant can grow huge leaves and send out runners and take over a garden, even crowding out weeds. I especially like butternut squash and even enjoy cooking them or baking them (recipes on request; ask in the private message area, please). But all related plants are welcome, except zucchini. I like all kinds of squash, including summer and winter varieties, but patty pan squash are my favorite for summer. Zucchini I find to be tasteless and a waste of garden space. They are extremely productive, which is even more annoying. A small town we once lived in, if you left your car unlocked you might open it in the morning to find someone had gifted you with a bag of zucchini. Or you could find a bag on your doorstep. If you have the space to raise zucchini, please raise something actually worth growing -- tomatoes, beets, peppers, radishes, turnips, rutabaga, kohlrabi, anything.

Yeah, what Spike says goes............do you want to be the one to incur the wrath of 2cute

Also curious to see what happens now that we've maxed out on the orange bars...........

Last night I was "liking" more posts in this thread & I'm sure I saw 2cute go from 8 to 10 bars. (Let's see what happens next.) That raises the question: Can "unliking" posts reverse gains in reputation, or does "liking" have more like a ratcheting effect? Anyway, congrats to 2cute & Russ!

I'm such a dork..................I can't wait 'til you get past 10.............I'm thinking the bars will change colors or some such. Don't let the grumps spoil your fun and lets get you past 10
