(verb) lyke beg•eeng (also upvote begging)

Like begging, or upvote begging, is when either people beg for likes and upvotes on YouTube, Reddit, etc. for so that they can be popular. Most people tend to dislike, or downvote, because begging for likes and upvotes is stupid.

Another thing people tend to do mostly on YouTube is post a stupid statement or question like, "this is how many people..." and have an arrow to the like button to get people to click it. This also is stupid for many reasons. Do not beg for likes and upvotes just to be popular. It'll give a bad look to you.

Get the Liked Begging mug.
A practice of writing comments designed for as wide of a target audience as possible, without any intent other than to get a maximum number of likes, or in other cases using emotionally manipulative statements that rely on guilt for the sole purpouse of getting people to like your comment.

Has become unbelievably common a practice recently, haunting most comment sections on YouTube
Like begging examples:

- "One like one prayer for the dog"

- "Whos watching in 2021"
