You could try to get more likes by starting to publish daily selfies overhere......that seems to work on the internet.....

This is part of the Internet.

But no, it's just that the count gets reset to facilitate demotion from Pentaxian status after 3+ months of inactivity. The likes are all still there on the individual posts.

Wow, that's kind of harsh!

As another old Pentaxian who's put himself out to pasture, I'm feeling the OP's pain!

Welcome back! I'm sure you'll regain your status in no time.

Remember that likes are also issued for posting reviews, so the might pile up faster that you'd otherwise expect.

I gave you one too just for coming back, Indy.

Don't know if this is relevant, but on another site, if a member is banned, all the likes he or she awarded are automatically revoked, which can be concerning. Most of us, of course, are above such petty matters - but as Groucho once said 'I wouldn't want to be a member of a club that would accept me as a member.'

Same thing happened to me. I took a hiatus from this forum and all my likes were gone! It's okay though, I don't mind.
