I see. To get clicks, you have to be in one.

It doesn't hurt. If you're good enough, the clique will come to you.

Not sure how to do that? Post old jokes. Its a start. Take part in theme weeks.

I don't see the meme saying anything about cliques.

The part about "be sure to upvote; if you scratch their back, they'll scratch yours" is the closest thing I can see. But I don't think that's about cliques. Cliques are exclusive and shut people out. Upvoting each other is recognizing that we're all in the same boat and we can help each other out.

pureserenity524 can correct me if I'm wrong about that.

Exactly. I think the idea I was trying to express is that if everyone upvotes when they find something funny, you will also be receiving some upvotes (from others who are likewise upvoting what they find funny) on a few of your creations, and maybe one on the front page once in a while.

I never meant to offend anyone. I was only trying to sound like one of the old 1950s educational films. (see the last panel about not getting offended and just having fun)

When I upvote, it is because I find it funny or creative, not because of who had made the image or comment. But I can see how what I had written can be misunderstand and lead to paranoia.

Just keep trying to make funny memes, Lessfriss. Not all my stuff does as well as I think it will, but once in a while something I make will do well. (if I was a clique, wouldn't all my memes get lots of upvotes?)

Upvoting people because they upvoted you is pretty much the definition of a clique.
Not upvoting people because they haven't upvoted you is pretty much the definition of an exclusionary clique.
