markymids Posted March 5, 2017 Posted March 5, 2017 I have a member of my forum querying this as he had the joint top number of likes as someone else yet the other member came 1st. It is not alphabetical as his username starts with a D & the gold medal winner starts with an S.
Management Lindy Posted March 6, 2017 Management Posted March 6, 2017 Whichever one is grabbed from the database first - we do not select alphabetically or using other criteria.

Lol, thanks for letting me know Lindy. My members have been wondering whether it was: who attained the tied number of likes in the shortest timespan, or who had an individual post that received more distinct likes etc etc. They will be a little disappointed that it is in effect quite random!
SJ77 Posted March 11, 2017 Posted March 11, 2017 Wouldn't it be whoever signed up first? If it's database row order, lower member id would be first. I.E. seniority wins! Lol
