I would prefer people actually take the time to add to a discussion rather than just hit a button, that is the whole point of a forum.

And yes some members do enter threads and just post 'this' or '2' etc but even at a push that's still preferable to just clicking a button and leaving the thread again.

what about the people's preference rather than your preference

Well like we've discussed many times before Tom, not everything suggested is going to get implemented especially if we feel its not great for the forum.

Hmm could it not be trailed

Josy is a dictator confirmed? Most members clearly want it and loads of other forums have it and are successful so

You could go to those other forums if its an essential part of your online posting habits to have a like button

How bizarre, that's not how other sites are run

It just seems very stubborn and backwards to not even consider adding feature that a lot of people would like and think would improve the forum, especially when pointless features like "share this topic on MySpace" still exist. But that's just my opinion.

You think the amount of times this subject has been brought up it's never been considered? well you would be wrong, James was even thinking about implementing something similar a while back iirc, but hes has also worked hard and spent time on a lot of custom modification coding for this forum so that has to be taken into consideration when implanting new vb mods its not as easy as finding a mod and adding it a lot of the time.

Then theres just times when things are suggested and we just don't see it being beneficial to the forum.

Yes, because I clearly meant just the like button

[Epic.]

So... we getting that like button yet?

I was wondering this too!

Here is a quote from the recent rules announcement.

The odd post that is just a GIF or smiley is fine but constantly is not.

This is a really good example of why a like button is needed! There have been loads of times where I've waned to show appreciation to a post but haven't because of this rule.

I don't think it's a silly threat either tbh, I think you've been quite lucky with the fact we just put up with this.

I know this post is like a month old but I only just saw it. Quite what atrocities have we committed? How come you are still here if its that bad? Not trying to push you away from the forum or anything, but I feel like this is a huge overreaction and would like to know a list of our supposed sins to see what we could change.

I don't really see how? People could post actual opinions instead of just clapping or gifs...or pressing a like button.

I get that you are all desperate for one. I am kinda in the middle. I don't see how it would benefit the forum and I know it will be used as a popularity contest. We did actually used to have something like that on the old forum...a karma system and people did abuse that too. However at the same time, I don't see what harm it would do to have one and it would be nice to see the one word answers and constant gifs disappear...though I have a feeling it wouldn't happen like that and posts would just be liked AND GIFS posted. I think it would probably make people more cliquey than they are now. A well thought out post by an unpopular poster would be ignored, while another member posting 'I saw someones cock today' would have 30 likes

I for one would never like such VULGARITY.

But like being serious, I really don't think it would be cliquey? There could always be a trial run and if it's not popular or isn't being used properly it could be scrapped.

[Vicky.]

I am not sure its something thats actually easy to implement. I expect its seriously hard or James would have done it by now I think with the demand, even for a trial as you say. This forum has so much custom coding that its kinda a lot harder than in other places to install the mods, and sometimes they can **** up other features... if that makes sense?

Either way, the way to go about it is not to make threats and have a bad attitude (not saying this is you btw )

I know James is aware there is a demand for this. I just don't think he is going to do it right now. Plus, Josy already said no Its like asking mam for something, getting a no so running to dad

[Withano]

Is it here yet, I want to like things
