• WANTED: Happy members who like to discuss audio and other topics related to our interest. Desire to learn and share knowledge of science required. There are many reviews of audio hardware and expert members to help answer your questions. Click here to have your audio equipment measured for free!

My ratio of posts to likes is quite low, and I don't know what to do, because I'm a n00b.

Why struggling for a like?
In a scientific discurs we can agree or disagree, each supported by data.
A thumbs up is not really necessary for this but appreciated decoration.

Agree and gave you a like anyway.
 
A like? So understand that real physics knowledge has absolutly nothing to do with it. Its like hawking sayd "Someone told me that each equation I included in the book would halve the sales".(likes)

Good jokes let explode likes. ;) . But who cares?
 
I feel like I'm a n00b who doesn't have much to offer compared to the proper members
Get in the very long line. That includes me. Mostly the best advice is to try and steer them towards threads and Amir’s teaching Video Series (linked in my Signature). Or just saying Welcome to the Team. The learning curve in here is close to 90 degrees. I try to just point them in the right direction. We have lots of resources and helping a new member find what they are looking for is always very helpful. :p
 
If you have areas of expertise in audio or music and post coherently on those subjects, you will get likes for those posts.
This applies in particular to those with a background in repair or design.
Genuinely funny posts will always get likes.
Anyway, you've only been here a short time so don't worry about it.
 
If you want to be able to contribute helpful answers, you can observe the common questions people ask ("what speakers to get for my bedroom/office" is pretty common) and start to get comfortable with the answer to that yourself. Don't worry about learning everything at once ... a lot of prolific commenters here have decades of real experience in audio one way or another. But you can learn a lot about one thing at a time, and share that knowledge.

They say the best way to learn is to teach someone else. So in an indirect way, the idea of chasing likes is a good one, it will help you increase your own knowledge faster.

I think @Punter has done this to some degree. He does his own deep-dives into topics and then posts summaries from time to time. They're generally quite good/informative and as it happens also get a lot of likes.
 
So now we all had fun and this without any reaction by OP ... will focus now again the new and old more interesting threads instead of riding a dead horse of probably bot clickbaiting.

So harsh! Based on the time of the original post, they are probably not online yet. Also, not everyone spends a lot of their day on here...

Ok, one half day more of patience ...
 
Just find something you feel passionate about and comment on it, or something you want to know more about and ask a question. If someone likes what you contribute, great, but don't get hung up about it. Even if no one bothers to mark what you put, it's still important, and you should just write your peace.

And there will be people who do like some of what you have to say, it will just vary from comment to comment.
