Stars. We should be able to see who starred a post.

Although I doubt most of you would really care

I would stop starring if that were instituted

That would lead directly to the alphabet federal justice system monitoring who stars what, they already monitor this site for what we write. They watch us like we were at the OK Corral and they were trying to influence and understand what we think about each side.

Such a strange obsession…

Do people HONESTLY care about stars?

Yes. In fact, I cry myself to sleep when I don't get more than 8 stars on every post. This is why my life is a miserable living hell. I JUST WANT TO BE A SUPERSTAR!

scuse me, let me see my way out. I need a sky to scream at.

I star on accident very very often.

Yep, and they're like covid vaccines... There's no taking them back.

As the title suggest hovering over a star should say a name. I want to know who is starring what posts. It matters. I'm surprised when I searched "stars should show how gave them" or something along those lines I see no posts.

This feature needs to be implemented. Yes I know this site is unable to add anything new. Still we can imagine what it would be like in this thread?

The most popular posters should be given ad revenue on their threads.

Why is life so unfair???????????

It made me laugh. You put me in a good mood which is good. I’m about to go for a job interview after 14 years of no work due to child raising. She is 14 now and probably needs time away from me as much as I need to go talk to other people and make a little money at the same time.

After making this monkey what would you do with it? Teach it to juggle? Act? Tear people's faces off?

Dammit, I thought I edited in time- hahahaha.

On second thought, I am definitely going to ask for a monkey instead of cash. Sounds like more fun. I will teach it to post like a bot on ATS 🐒🤖

If that little f***** cuts into my earnings I will skin it.

Just teach it to star everyone's posts. Gotta earn the right to that ATS account.

a reply to: TDDAgain

That is absolutely the reason. Why is that unhealthy though? It would just be another thing you can ignore or look into if the mood strikes you. If you give them out like candy why care who can see?

I don't think the named star system would do that. I really don't think people pay too much attention to them and they still wouldn't. They do however catch your eye some times. It would be interesting to see who. That's all. No one would be able to form any concrete reason why whoever starred a post.

If your vindictive situation came to be, It would just mean less stars? Who cares in the end they would still mean nothing.

I think just our own biases do that plenty enough, Named stars wouldn't really change anything. We would simply know who decided to spend a fraction of a second pressing a little star on a post. It would confirm this person read the post?

I really don't think people would treat you any differently on board. Just because you starred a post they didn't like. I don't think we are that petty. We may be though? If that's the case then, What can you do about it?

ATS is not equal to facebook. We live under an alias. Obviously you folks become that alias in our hearts and minds. You even want to protect your aliases privacy when it comes to who you star? As if it is some personal thing, Someone even called it doxxing. It makes me wonder what kind of posts they star.

These stars are pulling us apart! Tear down the Star wall. Mr. Ats. Sunlight is the best disinfectant. If only there were a way to use stars inside a persons body, Like the way we see stars and how it kills bad juju outside of the body. If only there was some kind of medical procedure were we could use something like a star, Inside to remove all that bad juju.

Time is Monkey. An old saying from my school days... few though they were.

I think it's less "My God, it's full of stars!", but more like West Side Story... without the love affair.
