It's been bought up a few times previously and I think this is a great idea. It works really well on other social media platforms like facebook, tumblr, instagram, reddit etc so I don't see any harm in adding one!

[Jamie89]

Completely agree, I think it would be a great addition

People could still post 'this' and '2' if they wanted, but I think a lot of people would prefer to just 'like' a post and not add to a string of 'this's if there's already a few.

I don't know if it would take away from discussions. If someone wants to make make a comment on something they'll do it regardless, I don't think they'd put off by being able to 'like' someone elses post.

It's not a necessity (but not being 'needed' isn't a reason not to do it imo), it's just something that might make the forum a bit more positive like Tom said.

What's wrong with this?

(And I rarely feel inclined to agree with my friends on this forum)

[Cal.]

I would love a like button, myself.

so if you rarely feel the need to agree why the need to "like"

Are people really that sad?

I think people are bugging up a bigger 'clique' problem than there actually is...

Doing the most and stereotyping the younger members for some reason

That's also true, friends can be friends on here without it being negative (I thought she was on about it being a cliquey thing)

[Cal.]

No one likes each other enough on here to like all of each other's posts!

[T*]

Like I get what some people have a problem with but it's the same logic as removing the quote button bc then friends/'cliques' can agree with each other by using that?

and what is wrong with

"i agree"

or

"Yes I like that post"

?


may as well have buttons for

"shook"

"me"

"people who voted for brexit are fools"

"people who voted Trump are racists"

"same"

"me tbh"

"tbh"

"how nice"

[T*]

I think you're looking too far into this, LT.

[Black Dagger]

Don't need it.

[T*]

It's not a matter of needing it- it would just be a nice addition to the forum... if we're not doing things bc we don't need it then why don't we just take away all the BBCodes for Instagram and vines because we don't need them? We don't need avis either

maybe you are right

maybe we try it for a month and see how we go?

[Drew.]

The forum is quiet enough already. It'll probably reduce the amount of "this" and "[2]" but at the same time people are more likely to not respond to a post or thread with their own opinions and inputs if they just click like on someone elses. They use this on other forums i use and i cant be arsed to reply most of the time if i like another post.

[Amy Jade]

Used to think it was a good idea but the forum is cliquey enough already without it.

If you agree then quote and add to the conversation instead.
