Yeah you’ve been around for quite a while most of us probably know
There’s certain like numbers and read numbers you have to hit to maintain regular

It’s probably my like numbers. I rack up almost 60 hours a week on YouTube (mainly podcasts and music) but only have ~50 liked videos
Same here it looks like. I’ll work on that, thanks!

Lol on youtube I passed the 5000 like limit in 2014
I can’t imagine how many I have actually liked - it has to be in the 50k’s at least
I wish that youtube had a total time watched over the lifetime of your existence on the platform
Would be really cool

I think both the number of replies and likes have to be somewhat high to become a regular
I’ve only been using the Like function to “save” videos and that since…forever :D. I never press like when i “like” a video.
My current account from 2011 has 36 likes. Tbf there were more but many of them i removed because they were either privated/deleted or not relevant anymore (most of them were music)

The specific requirements are in this blog post or here if you want the even shorter version
I presume your issue is the 30 likes given and 20 likes received, in which case you can just spam like some stuff now and make a couple of posts in the next few days and you’ll easily get bumped up within the week

BUT keep in mind that the requirements can be changed by the forum owner. Could be that we have totally different requirements than what discourse states.
(Still easily doable luckily)

Oh yeah lol I forgot about that. I got that link from whatever bot does the promotions for us, so I assumed it was accurate, but maybe it was changed without changing the bot’s scripted messages

I think ours are default as far as I know
I’ve been doing a bunch of soldering the last few nights setting up a dual drive.
Last night in my dreams I was inspecting my solder joints and every single one broke as soon as I put the slightest pressure on the joints…
Just wanted to share… Lol

To be fair, i rarely if even see anyone using these. I think the majority runs fivestars.

@glyphiks See, this is how you respond to off-topic comments without derailing the thread further. The mods are so clever. We might as well learn something here.

Yes i should know better.
@xsynatic Not sure why we don’t see more people using the rockstar pros.
I know i definitely had issues with the bearing seats being too tight on the last set I used… but didn’t stop me from getting another set for the next build

Had the same.
I really liked the purple on the pros i had and still hate the white i have on the fivestars now. i would still not go back to the pros i think…

Dye them, dye them now! $15/ hub is like a flaccid penis.
Unbeatable.

Months ago I thought about sending the hubs to @PixelatedPolyeurthan for him to dye them (since he has all the tools at hand) but i always kept working on my mtb and thought “next week im finished” but it’s going to take much longer to ship them back and forth + the work involved so I can’t do it. But then i never finished the build and the circle repeated itself. Now almost 6 months into the rebuild I’m neither finished nor did i send them to him xD
