Sorry if this has already been asked...
Could we get a 'like' button or something similar for posts/comments we love or agree with etc... ??

Crown

I ain't self satisfied - I omitted a comma

caravanista13 · 26/10/2015 21:09

Wow - having ploughed through these patronising and self satisfied posts I'm voting for a dislike button.

How about a rosette?

A 'like' button please?

Maybe when someone gets enough likes MN could award them a crown. That way we would truly know who the MN royalty areGrinGrinGrin

I wholeheartedly agree with ShowOfHands never has a truer word been spoken. if only there was a like button so I could click it sycophantically 50 times or until my finger wore out

I am prostrate with admiration before every word Arfarfanarf says. I can barely type for clapping. That woman. Those words. Can we all just stand for a minute and silently acknowledge what she has done for us all.

And that, my friends, is how it is done.

GrouchyKiwi · 26/10/2015 19:25

I don't want one either. I think it discourages conversation and is disengaging.

MidnightRed · 26/10/2015 19:24

No no no no no. For all the reasons outlined above.

And the [kitten] emoticon .

Love it Showy. Grin

TheAnimatedRemainsOfMaryz · 26/10/2015 19:14

Absolutely not.

Not until we get a "hide poster" button

Actually, not even then.

greenhill · 26/10/2015 19:13

MN is not FB. MN promotes discussion, it is not a popularity contest for posters to get the most likes.

It's troll central here some nights, what would it be like if there was a corresponding dislike button?

There are enough accusations flung about MN royalty as it is, without adding to the mix.

ShowOfBloodyStumps · 26/10/2015 19:13

Bwahahahaha

"Sorry if this has already been asked...

Yes, it's been asked a billionty times.

It's even been out to user vote.

No. We don't have one, and that's deliberate

Sparklingbrook · 26/10/2015 19:04

Donkey I thought SOH had had a Halloween namechange. Grin

hugoagogo · 26/10/2015 19:02

Nope

DonkeyOaty · 26/10/2015 19:00

Ah crappie daps. Missed a comma there. Am cringing. Poo.

DonkeyOaty · 26/10/2015 18:59

No.

Great posts from severed showy and sparklers

Sparklingbrook · 26/10/2015 18:56

It's a no from me. be like the Daily Mail with it's arrows.

A 'like' button please?
ShowOfHands · 26/10/2015 18:52

Then appreciate the comment for what it is. Something offered in response, not a bid for attention. Just like it. You know, in your head. Like we used to in the good old days.

caravanista13 · 26/10/2015 18:49

I think it's a great idea. It's all very well saying use your words, but sometimes the conversation has moved on considerably and it seems a bit odd to actually comment on a much earlier post.

ShowOfHands · 26/10/2015 18:45

No. This is not FB. Use your words.
