Instead of TUs only (aka Brownie points) I enjoy # of readers

of my posts equally as well, thus I advocate that number of readers can be more satisfying than TU’s since each poster has his/her/their little band of in-house buddies that they will point up just for the sake of friendship and/or support of a favorite TNetter.

High Readership numbers over high (or low) brownie point numbers could mean that:

1. The subject matter was interesting, unique or meaningful.

2. The “heading” was eye-appearing (as was the subject matter if mentioned in heading),

Also, The number of readers of one’s works is what helps make authors rich, famous or infamous, hired, sought after, etc more so than a few kudos when all is said and done.

Saying, when I have delightfully seen where many many thousands (4000 to maybe 6000+) of TigerNetters have read just one of my posts/ articles, especially if I’d spent hours researching the subject and then more time typing it out for you & others to read & hopefully to enjoy or learn from it..

then the fact that so many unexpectedly read my personal dribble resonates the author in me much more than the 0 to182 TU’s per article, or the POTD or HOF numbers accrued due to your appreciated generosity.

And that’s the truth..numbers over brownie points any day but praise is good for sure too!

PS: If you’ve noticed, TU’s are sometimes given as seldom as automotive drivers in front of you give a turn sign..not often or enough, since both parties have lazy hands or fingers. Ha..
