Are the unusually high numbers of likes on this salon question from shills working for the site?

As soon as Makeotoko's number of likes caught up with Kazu's, the number of likes on Kazu's answer suddenly shot up.
Why go so far to manipulate people's impressions??
👤Asked byGuest👩GenderFemale🎂20s👑Universe female member
Lately, the number of likes on answers has been getting ridiculous.
I suspect that someone who used to give tons of likes to questions has now started liking answers too, just to mess around.
I’m guessing it’s probably just one person posting lots of questions and liking them over and over, but I really don’t understand why they’re so obsessed.
Do they not care if the question box ends up disappearing as a result? Are they really that lacking in foresight? Or do they simply dislike the question box and want to bring it down...?
Either way, it’s frustrating to be targeted by someone who’s clearly just doing this for their own amusement.
And if they think the site will become inactive unless they keep posting questions, they’re badly mistaken.
It would be better off without pointless questions.

Hmm? ( ˙꒳˙ )???
Did it seem like the staff were deliberately influencing things? (＞＜)
When it comes to questions without one right answer—like how much the allowance should be—everyone probably views them from different perspectives.
Makeo, Kazu, and everyone else, this isn’t a competition.

Almost all of the people answering here—including me—are contrarians, so be careful: you could get burned if you rely too heavily on just one person’s opinion.
For example, Paper Airplane and I usually say almost the exact opposite things, but we agree on the ultimate goal: making women happy.
We’re just taking different routes up the mountain. Rather than nodding along with only one person’s opinion, I hope you’ll look at the answers from various angles and come to your own understanding.
If my business ever goes under, I might start shouting, “Pay-per-meeting allowance of 40,000! 50,000 is too much! I hate women who are all about money!!!” too, you know? Haha.

I feel like I may have said something like that at some point（笑）
I pay attention to metrics like follower and view counts because I run a website, recruit through social media, and belong to the generation that saw social media take off while I was a student. I also consider the number of likes as supplemental information.
I don’t judge anything based on those figures alone, but I do use them as a reference when making an overall assessment.
As for this particular case, I don’t think it gained enough traction to qualify as image manipulation. My impression is that, at most, someone with a slightly larger following shared it on social media.
And since none of the respondents—including you, the questioner—were influenced by it, even if that was the intention, it failed.

Rest assured.
The staff at this club aren’t idle enough to manipulate public opinion. Everyone’s busy. And even if they did try to influence perceptions here, it wouldn’t make them any money, so no one would gain anything from it. They wouldn’t go out of their way to do that.
As for the sudden increase in likes, this is just my guess, but I think it’s probably due to:
- People coming in from the spread on linked Twitter accounts
- Someone with too much time on their hands repeatedly hitting the like button
That’s how I see it.

I think there’s a good chance the questioner is the one clicking those themselves. That just shows how jaded and exhausted they must be.
Let’s call it “Attention-Seeker Syndrome.”
And it looks like each answerer has their own fans, too.
How entertaining.

How should I know…?
No one’s interested in this question, so they probably haven’t even seen it. Even if they have, who cares…
Just making people read this question might be a nuisance in itself…

I don’t think so.
Judging by the trends in the number of likes up until around last month, the recent influx of double-digit likes is probably just someone messing around.
Besides, the number of likes on that question itself is strange too.
While I’m at it, I’ll add that I think most of the questions are probably someone’s prank as well.
