Please add a "Like" or "Agree" option to posts

[MichaelKeith]

We need a "like" or "agree" option to comment with on other's posts. A lot of times I read a post that I agree with or like and am not able to click a small icon to indicate this. Please consider adding to all posts. thanks.

Having a “dislike” button in addition would also be good.

I don’t think I’ve seen this board format (what’s it called vbulletin, or something like that?) anywhere that had a like button.

Take a look at the www.driveaccord.net website and you'll see in the forums section for each post on any given topic, there is a "Like" and "Agree" button at the bottom of that particular posted message.

The other TV board I do some posting at, Primetimer, has 11 button options to reply to posts, but their forums look different than here.

The buttons are (deep breath) Like, Love, LOL, Useful, Applause, Thanks, Fire, Wink, Sad, Hugs, Mind Blown

[MichaelKeith]

Yep, that's what I'm talking about. We don't have to have that many here but that's the general idea.

Hi Opus.....Im on 1 VBB site that has likes: www.city-data.com/forum

I think that would be cool. Cause sometimes I really like a post or agree with something but I don't have time to make a whole post! So a like button would let the person know you read their post.

Believe it or not there are some posts that I like and would like to give the Poster a Like.

Is that an easy Function to add?

If a like button/icon is added, it would be a bad idea to also have a dislike button with it. That is just asking for a lot of needless fights and hostility.

The Like function is all that is needed here. Give a person a like for their info. The dislikes are a given. Silence says a lot, most of my posts get Silence.

Silence doesn't mean dislike, sometimes there is just nothing more to say.
