can we "like" posts? sometimes people really make me laugh and I would like to "like" their posts, is there a like button, and if not can we get one please?

This was all discussed wasn't it on that mammoth thread - I think people said that opting out must mean that nobody could like/dislike your posts. Which wouldn't work would it?

It would work for me. I don't want people to give me the big thumbs down every time I posted. It would make me cry

My posts are fucking shite so I would cry as well.

I would want to know WHO gave me the thumbs down

DOWN

wow - that was weird. I put 'thumbs down' in double square brackets

THUMBS DOWN

WHAT DO WE WANT?

NOTHING!

WHEN DO WE WANT IT?

NEVER!

But that potential is already there on sites which use "+" and "-" scoring, and I have yet to see any real "bullying" - or even badly hurt feelings!

It's just the case of having a slightly thicker skin, remembering this is not RL, and no amount of name-calling, or negative votes should really get you down.

The 'option' to see or not see any voting was what I think MNHQ agreed to do, and for those who are minded not to want to use/see it, it should make not a jot of difference.

Anyway, until such time as there is a trial, who knows how MN and their Tech staff will decide exactly what will and will not be done. Best wait and see, I think.
