Like/Dislike Button

[BlackSmith]

When taking a picture to post on the forum hold your phone so the the home button is at 3 o’clock. It has nothing to do with the forum, it’s not a glitch. It’s a tag the phone places on the pic.

Would anyone leave if Butch decided to have the likes? I’m not so strongly in favor of them that I would disappear if they are not used.

It would annoy me, I just think it's a cheap shortcut to a actually taking the time to post something, even going to the emoji section takes some effort so when you see a you know someone took some time to find one to express their opinion...
And yes, part of the reason we post pictures is for approval...and to read the comments and get feedback, and to stimulate discussion...so no argument there Mick.
Discussion, feedback, emojis, 'like' button, all layers of potential approval with a like button being the shortcut

Very well said.

You have cheap friends if all they have time for you is to click a like button. I would dislike some likes if I could because I'd rather a response.

We don't need status points either.

Y'all are overthunking it imo.

 

[MasterBlaster]

Now I like that!

 

[MasterBlaster]

Well, galldang! I'm liking this button!

Anybody with me?

 

[lxskllr]

Yea, it's alright. That forum I mentioned that had a full range of expressions got rid of the negative ones due to abuse. No more 'karma meter' either. I think those are the worst aspects of a like/dislike system.

 

[MasterBlaster]

There's an angry face one here, but I bet it doesn't get used much. We're just too damned nice!!!

 

[pantheraba]

I likes de like button!!!

 

[MasterBlaster]

Uh-oh... Carl is mad at me!

 

[flushcut]

Oh no what ever will you do!?

Like only:
To me like is like you accept or learned something and perhaps giving it more weight or flag to others.
>>doesn't need repeating etc. in a post that would just add more fluff to dynamic content
>>in future; that post perhaps to be given more weight especially in skimming/researching
.
Dis-like would be in a post as more discussion needed , explain contradiction etc.

 

[Fiddler]

sometimes I like it...other ties I dislike it...

 

[MasterBlaster]

They really love me at that Target forum!

 

[Ryan]

I like the like button. It allows me to participate without participating.

 

[MasterBlaster]

That's what I don't like about it!

 

[Ryan]

I know but if I posted my appreciation of every Work Pic that gets posted I'd probably get mistooken for a starstruck schoolgirl.

 

[MasterBlaster]

I'd rather that then looking mute. You don't have to respond to every pic - I sure don't.

 

[pantheraba]

But if you DO want a response from the boss....just leave a stub!!!

 

[MasterBlaster]

No stubs, dimmit!!!

 

[flushcut]

I broke down and used the "like" button.

 

[MasterBlaster]

Did you burst into flames? LOL!
