Description : Do you think you are receiving all of your deserved lurve?

Last Answer : It's an imperfect system. Sometimes I think the lurve is over-generous, and sometimes I feel I've given great comments which were overlooked. I think lurve tends to over-value short & clever phrasing. And ... that just accumulates over time, and has a cap per lurver. But I still lurve and crave it.

Description : Is your lurve total frozen, too?

Last Answer : answer:People max out on the amount of lurve they can give you. It still shows up as a GA but doesn’t increase your score. I think it is 100 points per person until it doesn’t count anymore on your actual points. It is just the way it is and everyone has dealt with it.

Description : I have a Lurve question.

Last Answer : You are limited by how much lurve you can get per person. You’ve maxed out on some people so when THEY give you lurve your score doesn’t increase.
