I think this would be a great addition to the forum and eliminate the need for 'this' and [2] posts. There does not need to be a dislike button if needs be so it can be a positive addition to the forum rather than a tool for brigading like past fears which iirc was reason for not having this added.

If there is a need for finding codes for VBulletin to have this added I have done a little bit of research and found these, i'm unsure if they will be any help but they're good to keep in mind.

I hope you will have an open mind and see the benefits this could have

'this' and '2' posts are cute though

Don't really see the point myself, there's already little enough discussion in threads without taking away from it further, saying that though i wouldny be against it being added just posting my opinion of the feature in general.

I get what you're saying but 'this' posts really don't bring anything new to the discussion at hand, but with a like button I also think it might boost activity in threads like those that don't usually get any replies are more likely to have a like bc it's just a click of a button (if that makes sense) and have more people agreeing with posts and acknowledging them. I'm on another forum as active as this one that has the system and it doesn't affect discussion threads much at all and actually brings more opinions to the table when people are liking what you're saying.

How would someone clicking like add to a discussion though? I don't see it being any different to 'this' in any way

I feel like bc I'm tired that post was quite longwinded, basically I'm saying posts will be acknowledged more with it as clicking a like button is quicker than having to post that you agree/like the post and will make a thread more active bc of that

It is another way for people to attack people they dislike

[T*]

Even though it isn't because I already went over that in the post...

[Denver]

People will press dislike regardless of the comment if they dislike someone

Did you seriously not read the original post

So why do most popular forums welcome it?

[T*]

i literally said we didn't have to have a dislike button just a like button i don't get what his problem is

[Withano]

I agree with the like button if its anonymous. Disagree with a dislike button entirely.. Was that ever suggested, only skimmed through the thread.

Because I kinda agree with Adam, it would be cliquey, and i think it would be less so if it was anonymous. People just wouldnt like a post by a member that the disliked, but they might do if it was annoymous.. I think casual members would struggle to use it too if it wasnt anonymous... also I think it might encourage groups, gangs and cliques.

Just all in all, would be better if it was seen and used as more of a like-counter than a like-list in my opinion

I don't get the point.

This thread is about a "like" button, what you talking about?

Surely it'd be more cliquey if it was anon??

? I dont see how thats possible? and it defo wouldnt encourage cliquey behaviour because nobody will know who else liked the same post.
