    Same problem here, Mac laptop with Safari. It's happened before, I think.
    Stop using Safari @PragueAddick, it's almost as bad as IE.

    Firefox is the way
    Chrome?
    Chrome is also pretty good, I just prefer the add-ons on firefox.

    Google Chrome's security lead and engineering director, Justin Schuh, has warned 
    that users of the most popular web browser should update "like right this minute".

    This must be why my posts haven't got any Likes.  I can't think of any other reason.

    I have been informed that is me that is causing all the problems and if you hit "like" at least 10 times on as many of my comments you can find, it will correct itself  :)

    I'm on windows 10 & have no idea how to find out which version of google (not chrome) it is, but have it on Internet Explorer (on a laptop)
    I have checked and have still got Java enabled according to my settings

    (not sure if that answers your questions because I'm technically challenged when it comes to computing!)

    Works OK for me on google chrome

    I can now give others likes & lols, thank you,  @LoOkOuT

    However I now have a related problem on both google & google chrome (windows 10 on laptop).

    When I click on my username (top right) and click on the number of "likes", I used to get a list of my recent posts which had been "liked" by other posters - now all I get is an advert.  The function is still working for lol & promote posts.

    And why is random blue type appearing?  Are we being hacked by the Spanners?!

    When I first noticed it, it was just the username Jimmy Seed which was blue, so I assumed it was part of the long-running joke about his Millwall connections, but it has now spread far beyond that, including to page numbers.

    @N01R4M I think that might be just your computer mate. Can’t replicate either of your issues.

    A 2:1 like to lol ratio is what you want to aim for. Means you have important things to say but can still bring the comedy.

    Not if your like count is 2 and your lol count is 1 :-) 
  • I have a 1:2 ratio.  But there is intelligence in my comedy!!

    Mines approaching 1:4........it seems I’m a deeply unpopular comedian.
