'Likes'

[Locke.]

The other forum I go on has gotten rid of a similar feature to Karma which used to be on here, and they've replaced that with a 'like' feature.. Basically instead of giving extra points to the poster or whatever, you just click Like on their post. A bit like on Facebook where you like groups and stuff. It's a good way to stop all the "This" posts.

Examples:

http://i54.tinypic.com/167jujo.jpg

http://i56.tinypic.com/16la7hi.jpg

Am guessing it'd be able to be installed because the forum has pretty much all the same features as this one..

[Jessica.]

Wow, that is actually brilliant. :o
I would love for this to be integrated!

[Stacey.]

Yeah, it seems a good idea

[Patrick]

I mentioned this ages ago and the whole forum blanked me. rofl

Yeah it'd be epic, plus it would probably shut some moderators/admins up who go on about how some threads get too big and stuff.

I say bring it on to the forum really, but then again we're still waiting for a Skin and have been for almost 3 Months so I doubt, even if James does agree, we won't get it until Christmas.

[Josy]

Yeah, a few of the other forums I go on has that feature, I will mention it in the admin forum.

It'd be good but some people would end up abusing like someone would say 'Goat' in a thread and it'd get about 15 likes.

No, I'm sick of everything adopting Facebook's Like button these days :bored:

Can I bet 50p that one member would "like" another member's "wurk it" post and then the other member would "like" the "stunning" reply. Both of these would like every gif back from Scott in reply, then Niall would like Scott's reply and anon and anon ever self-perpetuating circle.

If that slows the flow from the server to log-it then that superfluous nonesense seems an own-goal. Slow the site for no good reason.

Equally, can I bet Novo would like Locke's posts and Locke would like Novo's posts. Or Sean would like Stu's posts and Stu would like Sean's. You can rub backs privately without logging it!

Waste of time is back-rubbing publicly..........no probs with it so long as no server issues.

[Locke.]

No sorry, no odds available on those bets.

Confused - you don't agree we'd invent the never decreasing circle of likes from a Tommy "wurk it"?

But wouldn't clicking a button be less taxing on a server than a new post? :thumbs2:

Were you here wee Niall last BB evictions? Not able to talk for hours because server down. Far less you liking Scott's giffs to F the place - honest - if it can cope then fine. When busy they switch the back-hugging off

Don't be silly. I've been here during evictions and I know how busy it got but seriously you think two people could crash a server from quoting/replying each others gifs? I'm sure a server that could handle over 3 and a half thousand people at once could handle two people posting gifs/replies to each other in a chat thread let alone pushing a button.

Bluddy hell - think of it - has your non-useful except "likes", has to record it to post, record it from originator, record your positive. 3 times saying OK!

[Claymores]

Have a wee think Niall what this costs on slow TIBB

[Claymores]

Don't wanna argue, so you obviously know better - TIBB will not switch off things cos cannie cope with you - you are obviously correct - HONEST

[Niall]

I'm just saying generating a new post would obviously mean more number crunching for the server. :shrug:

But yeah I don't wanna argue either (done enough of that recently) so we'll end it here.

[Locke.]

You two take this to PM or I will have Mark ban you both.

Would you "like this" as a stupid example Locke???? Waste of server space unless I like your latest eh?

[Novo]

There appears to be a crazy drunk hooligan in my thread

[Josy]

Stop arguing in here.

Yup - he opened Huns threads on sunday and still not quiet - silly Hun

[Claymores]

Sory Jose -- it's a ribbing laugh, not arguing

[Novo]

A 2 week ban should sort him out Josy

I'm not in your thread :/

[Locke.]

You are now

[Patrick]

Claymores,
Jesus.

Liking the post isn't going to make a sever slower.
It's not as if the post will be duplicated it'll simply say '3 Like This' and you click on it to see who liked it.

I question that thought Patrick - if I "like" your post it has to be recorded on the post and your ID and my ID that it sent it. At the moment that is fine, but imagine a BB eviction evening I'm liking your post and you're liking mine.........bla bla bla. Would the TIBB server last till 10pm? When it gets back how many are you gonna like to take it out again?

[Locke.]

There isn't going to be another BB Eviction evening.

[Niall]

There isn't going to be another BB Eviction evening.

:worship:

Goddam you're such a newshound - ever considered a spot in investigative journalism?
