I don't know if it's possible but is there any way for the BC owners/developers to add a 'like' button to posts? There are so many gems of posts on here it seems a travesty not to have one :lol:

I hate the like button.

people tend to -instead of saying something or replying to a message- just click without communicating.
what sense does something like this make here? I f you like a thread bookmark/follow it...

It makes perfect sense. It's just the equivalent of nodding in agreement, that's all.

You can. But, but as thousands of years of human interaction has proven, sometimes it's just quicker to nod.

but a nod online is worth nothing.

espacially regarding to the OP's question:

Only if you don't know it's happening.

I didn't like the system when it was first proposed. But a lot of people seem to communicate when they agree but won't get into the arguments, so a "dislike" button would probably be used more than a like button.

I think I'm converted to the like /dislike buttons. Maybe a 6 month trial would be a good idea.

I... errr... liked the 'like' button.

The dislike button was the downfall of it, though. What's the point of disliking something without saying why? It's not very useful.

Conversely what's the point of liking something without saying why?

The amount of screen real estate taken up by someone quoting a post they like and putting 'Like' or '^^^ This' or 'Spot on mate', especially if they have a big sig like yours, makes reading long threads a bit tiresome sometimes.

I liked the LIKE button. I thought it was an efficient way of nodding assent, like Wot is saying.

While we're at it, can we have a "Friend" option, and maybe some way of showing your "Mood". And how about a "Wall" where we can all post useless, self-important nonsense.

Then we can go public and float the site for megabucks on the NYSE.

;)
