I'm very unhappy with my reaction distribution. My attempts to sow confusion (0.21%) are drawing laughter (29.9%).

I hate each and every one of you.

We can't help ourselves, Maddy.  Like Mark Twain, you are a natural humorist.

Oh.  I was thinking of a different kind of twain....

Like Rolig, I hadn't realized this metric was available in our profiles. Seeing the distribution right there in front of me isn't shocking, but is food for thought. The distribution of my "Reactions Given" is quite different from "Reactions Received", and may explain my inability to shake the perception that I'm intimidating.

Two things stand out to me:

  • I don't give as much as I receive.
    I'd like to blame this on my years of participation in the Answers forum, where you'd expect a low ratio. I might be fooling myself.
     
  • I'm stone-faced.
    Though I do laugh out loud in public settings, it's exceedingly rare for me to do so when alone. Right or wrong, this is how I've approached my use of the "Haha" button. I truly enjoy the wit, humor, and warmth you all bring to the forums, and I hope that shows through my lack of laughter.

    ETA1: My confused ratio has climbed 0.02% because of this thread, so there's that consolation.
    ETA2: Thanks, Lindal!
    ETA3: Thanks, Par!

" I don't give as much as I receive."

There's a simple reason for this:  There are a lot more of us than there are of you.  Even if you throw in Snugs and all the Daves.

" I truly enjoy the wit, humor, and warmth you all bring to the forums, and I hope that shows through my lack of laughter."

Now you're just messin' with my head on purpose.

I don't think so, Selene...I think it's the person who got the most Likes (or Thanks, Sad, Laugh, Confused...just clicks on the Like button), not the person with the most posts.  I remember Scylla started a thread about that and got just a ton of reactions!
