I Like the 'Likes'

I like the 'Likes'. They were trialled here on the old software and I was sorry to see them removed. Also, the alerts in the top right corner are quite useful.

BTW, I liked your post.

Whats the world coming to when you are too lazy to write that you liked something and only want to press a button. Why, in my day, we would walk a mile in snowstorms and holes in our shoes to tell someone to their face that we liked them.

We had the same problem except we had to walk up hills, big hills, both ways.

In my own way I still don' t like "like" culture and like the idea of either saying something or not. Having said that people who are going to talk are going to talk and people who like to click a button or keep things shorthand/ brief are going to stick to that. I think in the end where a forum or group is their to serve multiple types that options either way serve pretty well. I've kind of come around on my initial opinion of the social media perks making thier way into the forum.

I prefer to click like on a post than just post some generic ''I agree'' constantly. The feature would be worse if the dislike button was around trust me.

For the record: I like the "Like" button, and dislike the "Dislike" button.
