Forum Like Facility - A Work in Progress…..

[dave]

Not much of a rep'er either.  The counter is sort of a popularity contest.  There have been a lot of times I've liked someone's photo or post, but can't bring myself to quote their post and say "awesome job!!" or whatever.  I've posted some pics and got some feedback from members, but I often don't return the favor.

Hence the reason why I posted "I wish this forum had a like or a +1 button" after looking at GHBK16's 666 XHS

Hmmmm, all of this sounds interesting.  I'll have to check it out when I get to a real computer, rather than reading about it on tapatalk.  I like tapatalk, but not being able to see post counts, avatars and other features is occasionally frustrating.

To avoid any further confusion: Tapatalk is not supported at that time, sorry.

OMG not because of my comment!!!

Can you imagine all the dislikes!!!???

I think the only way we can implement a dislike is to be able to dislike something that you have already liked…..

Loving the 'Like' function now. For future posts only though. Otherwise I'd have to 'Like' every Geo post…

^^^^

yeah I'm working on it, the glowing guy had 3079 posts    the amount of time i spend on here i think i can make sure new joins know Geo & old heads save a space in the heart for him.  at the rate i'm working i would say sometime in February or so

Currently working on that as well. Also, been going back through threads and liking old posts that deserved recognition long ago.

I'm liking the like button more every day! Great addition.

[jimmy]

i like!

[llvlaglne]

lol i was thinking it'd be a great idea if "likes" can increase your level here on the forums

[injunjack]

I'm starting to hate this liking thing….I don't dig.
(and only real posts should increase level, well, actually it doesn't matter to me, I'm not here to collect rep or whatever)

[Giles]

My personal view is that hitting the like button is cleaner than typing +1 or whatever.

The post count is performed by the software, it does not have the intelligence to decide whether a post is "real" or not.

[Max Power]

^^ I agree, IJ. Didn't hit like though This like-thing (and especially the accounting of posts) is Sufu style and it always meant more to me when I got a nice comment or PM than a "like", that is spread out easily. A forum offers the chance of expressing opinions and I prefer that over hitting a button.

[Giles]

Again, I agree.  But hitting the Like button has to be better than +1'ing.  The Like effectively should replace +1 and lead to cleaner threads.
