"LIKE" Button...

Dan Dan · 14 May 2012 at 10:08

Does anybody else think we should have a like button on the forums? I read some post which I like and to show I like them I repost them rather than repost them because its what I am thinking.

Anybody?

Maybe a reputation button if someone posts something useful or commendable.

DirtyJester · 14 May 2012 at 10:11

Do we reply with like or dislike?

This forum is full of sycophants already, giving them another level of arse kissing ability isn't needed imo unless there's no option to like mods posts.

I've always wondered if vBulletin would go in that direction. But I doubt it, there are modifications out there to do it anyway.

As for it coming to this forum - Very unlikely.

It turns forums into popularity contests.

Besides, blokes don't need to be liked, although the 'favourite poster' thread appears occasionally and you can unburden your man crush then

No one cares i you 'like' something.

No

there are a lot of other forums where the OP will only listen to people with a million posts, 5000+ thanks/rep

just because someone isnt on the forums all day doesnt mean their advice is worthless - the way we do things now is good

maybe a "rate this thread" button...

oh wait there is one

1 star foe this

No, I do not think we should ruin the forum.

its a no from me

Guys think about it for a moment. If a like button is included then it will reduce the +1 posts like crazy. I think this is a positive thing

Nein!
I don't think it'll add anything to the forum. If you like a post then reply to the thread and add to the conversation.
