Would it be an idea to have a like/dislike button on posts? It would save SO much hot air and posting and reposting from people.

Also, is it possible please to link to other posters when you post? As an "@" button?

Get rid of the biscuit, that would be good. Causes so much trouble.

SilverBirchWithout · 11/04/2016 21:11

No. I come on here because it is not Facebook.

I already think the smiley list has become too big.

No unicorns, rainbows and pink shit and glitter either.

Zombie (assuming I can make it, family still not made a decision !) my stickers will only be of the luffly smiley variety Smile Grin Wink Wine Flowers Star

This is MNHQ's reply from a thread in October 15 asking for a Like button

thanks for the suggestion. As you can see, it's not the most popular idea and we don't really feel it would be appropriate for the site as we're all about discussion and debate.

AuntieStella · 11/04/2016 19:51

Not this AGAIN!

MNHQ had a poll which showed that opposition outweighed support by a HUGE margin.

This is a chat site, so people talk and respond. And chat. Not use tools to avoid doing so.

Other sites are available if you want a like function.

Zombie wonders if Fru will be bringing her stickers along to the meetup.

FruStefanOla · 11/04/2016 18:40

Maryz. That is absolute genius!

I am going to buy a variety of stickers (or print my own) for my pub conversations. Umm, I wonder how long my popularity (or not) will last?!

ShowOfHands · 11/04/2016 18:39

Oh no, no and thrice no.

Maybe a judge button during a full moon. Some days I'd hit it hard.

Otherwise, words please.

averylongtimeago · 11/04/2016 18:36

Maryz Grin

It's a NO from me too.

If I want to "like" things I'll go on Facebook.

PortiaCastis · 11/04/2016 18:32

No no no this is not bloody facebrag !!!!!!!!!!!!

Sparklingbrook · 11/04/2016 18:30

YY sort the Zombies out definitely. I have a thread in this topic with some suggestions.

Hide Poster is v controversial and some posters say it would be a form of bullying.

ThinkBeforePosting · 11/04/2016 18:06

It's a no from me too. Sad

I would like a hide poster function though

..and for the zombie thread warning to stay on threads longer than a couple of new posts

FruStefanOla · 11/04/2016 16:35

We haven't had one of these threads for a while - I was wondering when the next one was due!

No!

SoupDragon · 11/04/2016 16:15

Moving emoticons!!

LilacSpunkMonkey · 11/04/2016 16:09

Ooh yes please! And can we have tickers? And sparkly things?

That was sarcasm. It's a NO from me too.
