See, this is why these things should be based on a logarithmic scale. Say, 10 likes to grow 5cm, 100 likes to grow 10cm, 1000 to grow 15cm, and so on.
(51,000 likes, by that scale, would mean 23.5 cm. If you want them to be more comically huge... eh, make the increase 7.5*log10(likes) instead of 5*log10(likes).)
This has been a thing on Twitter since it creation. "xxx retweets and I will xxx". Almost every (on twitter active) influencer does it.
Now artist do it too and it's nothing to get mad about.
They don't get anything out of it and nobody gets hurt or disturbed. You know what's more pathetic than asking for meaningless internet karma? The people getting salty about it for no reason.
.... it's in first place for weekly most viewed. Along with other stuff like her skirt is getting shorter with every like. While not salty, I'm annoyed something like this (essentially a cheap ecchi without plot) blocks recommendations I'd actually like to read.
I hope this trend dies. Fast. Cheers.
I think the saltiness of everyone is even better than the story itself. Calm your tits you lot, a hilariously dumb 4-page One Shot like this being on the front page for a week isn't the end of the world.
Nice, truly a work of art. A masterpiece, never done before. Reading this has broadened my horizons and I am sure 10 years later, I will gain success like no other due to my reading this incredible oneshot.
