isanbirder Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 Being one of those curmudgeonly and grouchy old men who sometimes dislike things, even intensely, I think it's a pity not to have a Don't Like function as well as Like. In our local forum we have a Thank You button, which somehow I feel is more positive than the ubiquitous Like. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

george Posted January 3, 2012 Author Share Posted January 3, 2012 Forget to mention, that your reputation points (number of Likes you have recieved) will also show up on your Member profile page. Just mouse-over a member name and you see the current score. This means that good, well written and informative posts increases your "karma" or "reputation" on the forum. Forum reputation is visible to all members. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So when is a comment not a comment? On comment sites people are mostly reacting directly to the base article. Here the situation is much more dynamic with members verbally interacting with each other directly. It's an executive decision whether to allow negative indicators. I am happy with the decision here. You are not. Oh well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are not. Oh well. You obviously haven't read many comments sites where commenters directly comment about other commenters comments in the same way as this forum reacts with comments to the original poster (base article), or other posters comments. I'd suggest BBC, or 606. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
