An interesting discovery ...

Does it even remotely matter?

Unfortunately, no-one has attempted to bribe me with anything, all very disappointing really! It's no use me going round claiming to be Mr Integrity if I'm not put to the test, oh and I prefer plain crisps if would-be bribers are uncertain which flavour to go for.

As for standards-compliant browsers I'd be much more influenced by someone who was able to remove all versions of Internet Explorer from the interwebs rather than coming up with yet another browser.

But if you favorite your own stories you end up polluting your list with... your own stories. At least that is how and why I have never favorited anything I have written.

I must say that this discovery has a certain wicked appeal. And for those who do fall for this temptation, well, isn't that what corporal punishment is for?

Absolutely! But as favouriting is anonymous it may be difficult to identify the perpetrators and bring them to justice. Perhaps some will confess voluntarily in return for a lighter sentence. Others will require lengthy interrogation in the library basement.

There's a basement in this place ???

Yes, it's a bargain basement.

Ahhhh well, as an American it's not in my tradition to accompany Miss Thrashbottom to any basement.

"A trip to the woodshed? Whatever you say, ma'am..." --C.K.

I did not realize you could identify who awarded a favorite to your story- how do you do that?

Sorry, CK. I didn't intend to be insensitive to cultural differences .


No, it's not possible, not for we mere mortals anyway.
