Forum Like Facility - A Work in Progress…..

@Max:

I'm not a fan of rep systems, even if they're only meant positive. So i have to back Finns idea of liking the post only instead of counting rep for a member as a whole.

That's what I tried to say as well. Show results of amount of +'es in the post, don't display the total of +'es someone has been given in the forum profile. Only the poster can see which one of his posts are liked and by who…

Just throwing that out there btw; I'm grateful for this forum and all the hard work all mods and Peter put into this. My brain doesn't always work (rarely does), and I tend to "post from the hip", but y'all know I've got nowt but love for you!..

(If this doesn't get me at least 5 "Likes", then I don't know what    )

Well put. I'll sign this.

i dig the like function for sure, but don't think it should be anything different than clicking "like" on facebook.  harmless and fun.

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.

[zhivago]

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.
