what is a rec?
Subscribers can recommend (rec) other people's posts if they choose to.
It's meant to be a sign of respect or appreciation for what they've posted. Some sad, deluded people see it as a sort of status symbol. You can often see these people begging for Recs as they're unable to post anything anywhere near worth recommending (ie: Santa Drummer)

Originally posted by Aikoit's not really true though-although i suppose it's what they have become. a rec is given if you would recommend the post to someone-be it as it is informative or meerly funny (russ had at one point, i believe, the highest number of recs). it's not really meant to be a sign. although it may be and i'm just confused. i'm now going off to eat apple pie for supper 🙂
