Please familiarize yourself with them


2) All posts must end with a '?'This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?


3) No spamPlease do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.


4) NSFW is okay, within reasonJust remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either !asklemmyafterdark@lemmy.world or !asklemmynsfw@lemmynsfw.com. NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].

Please don't delete your post for no apparent reason. If you plan on deleting a question later, say so in the post, or if you feel that you have a good reason to remove it, message a mod beforehand.

A percentage of how much our core values/morals/beliefs align, weighted by how important they are to us.

It would make it super easy to know upfront who I should include in my life and who I shouldnt.

How willing they are to talk to you right now. You can always pick the right person to talk to if you need to ask a question, give a friend the exact amount of space they need if they’re going thru something, and easily identify people that are interested in you (or not). Best of all, though, you can spot someone who’s a little too eager to talk and avoid a hostage-style conversation where they won’t let you leave politely

all the others seem a lot more invasive, so I'll go with their pronouns/gender so I never have to ask and be awkward

That's one way to find mummies, vampires and zombies.

Imagine if you saw you unknowingly had a couple of assists. Or seeing someone with a concerning number of deaths.

% of how genuine they are with me, easy to figure out who's worth the time and who isn't.

Could be a problem in a relationship tho. I take it back, just the cumulative numbers of fart in a lifetime.

[–] zikzak025@lemmy.world 28 points 2 days ago (3 children)

The "genuineness" statistic sounds like the sort of thing that would gradually drive me insane.

I'd probably end up staring into the mirror and seeing an abysmally low number for myself.

Number of hugs given?

Number of hugs received?

Number of hugs left?

[–] raspirate@lemmy.world 23 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Total net worth. No hidden assets or secret bank accounts. Every last cent that a person is worth. Also, it gets brighter/more noticeable whenever you're advocating for something that increases your net worth.

I feel like this would be the only way to get a lot of people to connect the dots.

Similar to some other answers here, but "number of times they've deliberately lied". Not only do you get an instant "trustworthiness" stat, you also get to know if they're lying to you right now.
