What is the meaning of pie

[Tyler Waves]

I get it's used in the place of a like button, but I feel like I'm missing some critical reference or something. I'm just a little lost here.

 

This forum should have some FAQ thread because the posting permissions were also a bit confusing. Anyway thanks

Once there was no pie here. Then, one day, poof there it was, replacing the old system of thumbs up and whatnot. 

And basically, everything counts as pie except for poo which counts for poo. 

Wish there was a more concise explanation that made sense, but that's what we've got.

And we have pie because the cake turned out to be a lie.

Yeah, Pie is just a replacement for a like, thumbs up, upvote, etc. There used to just be pie but through the years other options have been added that you can use to your liking as you deem situationally appropriate but everything except for Poo counts towards positive reputation.

Once upon a time your reputation actually had real consequences. If you went far enough into the negative you were banished to only being allowed to post in the "smack" subsection - a now long defunct sub forum meant for poo talking with rival fan bases.

Thank you gentlemen

this thread has been posted many times over the years and this is the first time I can remember that it's actually garnering serious responses 

Usually it's just 

"Pie is eternal." 

"What's not to love about pie" 

etc.

It's 2022 ... how can someone not grasp the concept of pie? Unless ... can someone be too young to not understand forums and whatnot?

Ive helped build multiple forums including one built on IPS, like this one and I don't think I've ever come across one using Pie reacts lol. I just wasn't sure whether or not it was some obscure Panthers fan joke or something. But in context of this site I'm pretty young sure

Thanks for the answer - I was also interested in the meaning of those button, but first answer in this topic didn't make it clear
