ADD A 'LIKE' BUTTON MUMSNET!!!

[schoolsgettingonmynerves]

Some of the responses to posts are hilarious and I just want to show that person that I agree!

Come on mumsnet team it's a no brainer!

Add the word 'agree' if you'd like to see that! (See if there was a like button it would be soooo much easier...)

It's not anonymous, you can see who's liked your posts & so can everyone else. And as for shutting down debate - 'dumbing down' - that wouldn't happen either - the posters who like a good chat are not going to change overnight are they? - they'll probably chat more if anything to up their likability ratings. It's just another small facility that some posters may like to use.

shakethetree completely agree. Why would it kill conversation? All the people worrying about that are the ones that just wouldn't use the like buttons (but I bet they would after a while!!

Gosh, you are quite tenacious, aren't you?

Eww at 'up their likability ratings'. Who sets out to do that?

Well the OP has shown her arse this morning.

What a turn up.

Look, you've asked. The majority have said no and have done on many occasions before.
If you don't "like" that we don't have a like button, there are plenty of other sites that do.

I vote yes.

THERE WAS A PAG BUTTON!

Oh my!

And while we are at it can we disallow animated pictures pleeeeeease...

Yes Pag. Where were you?

Tut

No - it's one of the many things I like about MN is the lack of a lazy 'like' button.

"Likability ratings"

Why on God's sweet Earth would we do that to ourselves?!?!

Naw Hump

I know Exit.

Perhaps we can have a 'someone on mumsnet is talking about you' function. That would work. Mitmoo would be on high alert.

Tortoise (or anyone.) How exactly do I get hold of an animated insult button?

That's right I have dared to show my arse this morning. I was thinking of going to Netmums where the scum of society hang out (apparently) but I think I will stay for a while just to annoy you.

I was going to tell you, on another thread, but as it was my suggestion I thought I might look like a creepy stalker or be accused of sycophancy.

As if !

I know this debate has been had many times before but does it always descend into cunting eachother back and forth?!

Seems extreme...

koalaface I have no idea but it's fun! Join in and call me a cunt. I can take it I promise.

And by the way it's not extreme at all. We are talking about potentially adding a 'like' button here. This could effect millions of lives everywhere if this is not resolved properly.

But I don't want to call you a cunt. Truly.

Alright your a big cunt.

1. Don't like the tone of the posts.
2. Not really in the spirit of the site.
3. Thread started deliberately to inflame.
4. Troll had run their course and no one is laughing anymore.

Come on MNHQ. You've used all of these recently. At least one should fit the bill.

Like buttons = lower class mothers and fathers probably sponging benefits and smoking fags outside the co-op whilst pushing a pram full of screaming kids with 16 different fathers. (Netmums basically)

'No' to the Like button. This isn't Facebook.
