It's actually a win for the mods... a post that gets gets quoted 10 times with clap emojis and what not... that they then need to delete... saves time to just delete the one instead of the 11

Is that against the rules, or do they do it to reduce clutter? A fair mount of forums have a rule that responding with just emojis/gifs/single words in "serious" sections result in some form of infraction.

I think it is maybe against the core rules on here... but they dont enforce it unless the original post is being deleted for another reason

This isn't a kids site

[reece(:]

It's what she deserves

Most modern forums nowadays have these features

[Alf]

It's for attention seeking, ego maniacs.






Yeah! Let's have one.

[Beso]

No.. good idea. But selfishly I would have to say no.

To begin with it may slow the forum where people just like something rather than reply to it...then you would get the women having to like it, AND reply..then the likes of me who have already liked it but end up posting and hating it.....


Far to transparent and tacky for my liking...no thank you JAMES.

I think the difference between this feature and karma was that "Karma" was a once-per-hour thing that could be altered regardless of post. I know it was commonplace for people to just perpetually plus or minus people every hour for being friends / annoying. I think this would be much more post-based and - if Josy / Oliver's suggestion of a react button is to be believed - a lot more spontaneous and relevant to the posts themselves. I can't see anyone really letting 15 likes on a TiBB post go to their head

Edit: Plus I think Karma was a literal thing that you could not hide from your profile with every post (unless you opted to turn it off): it would show up a thumbs-up or thumbs-down for every 10 plus/minus votes right underneath your avatar. Which obviously was the cause of the problem, because there'd be very obvious outcasts with "-150 karma" and 15 emoji under their name just hitting the point home that nobody bloody likes them

Hmm yeah good points.

As I said, not arsed either way anyway

Anonymous reactions could be fun. Like buttons with "[username] likes this", from experience, end up being used to be snidey and ganghanded and IMO would definitely go that way here

Like an upvote system? So you can see the post has for example 86 upvotes, but you can't see who's behind them?

That would work I guess

I was thinking more like FB where you can like/love/laugh/angry face etc.

Simple ups actually end up being a bit of a popularity contest too, e.g. if me and Marsh were arguing on a thread and I got 50 upvotes and he only got 4 he might feel bad about it.

What was the “Karma” feature?

It's just not realistic
