Hey,

 

in many threads I watch I see an "enjoying the show" below every (!) single new post. At first I thought about a troll, but this is now so massive and I read no comments about it that i guess that I am the only one who is seeing this. So I wanted to report that bug.

I can't see a technical issue. The two people who are teasingly 'enjoying' the post above are neither spammers nor serial 'enjoyers'.

I don't think that it's a bug, but some person or persons have recently been "enjoying" an awful lot of posts of late.

I noticed it too, because I don't know the original or intended meaning of "enjoying the show."

 

Is it for people who are just lurkers in a thread, having a good time reading the comments?

 

Is it sarcasm?  Patronizing?

 

Or just flagging something they found amusing, when the poster was being serious. Eg a poster says something ridiculous about evolution, and it makes the reader giggle a bit (happens to me sometimes)

I use "cheerful" for that.

Ah ok, so its not just me. Its just that I see this on all threads now and as I recently switched the OS i thought it could be related.
