Members bsshog40 Posted June 16 Members Report Posted June 16 Didn't know where to ask this. Is there a like button anywhere? If I like a comment in a thread, I'd like to be able to hit a like. If I made sense here! Lol Quote

Lol i do dis lol Quote Worked in a prison for 30 years if I aint shiny every time I comment its no big deal, I just don't wave pompoms. “I won’t be wronged, I won’t be insulted, and I won’t be laid a hand on. I don’t do these things to other people, and I require the same from them.” THE DUKE!

Members Mulesaw Posted June 16 Members Report Posted June 16 @bsshog40 I think it could be a deliberate choice to not have a "like" button. An old horse forum in Denmark pretty much died within a month or two after adding "like / dislike" buttons. Suddenly nobody commented on threads anymore, all the discussion was lost and that sort of took the charm out of the forum. So I tend to do like @chuck123wapati simply just reply a short remark that you like the content :-) Brgds Jonas Quote
Northmount Posted June 16 Report Posted June 16 Has been requested long ago. Apparently there is no provision for one in the forum software. Maybe we are better off not having one as pointed out by Mulesaw. Quote
Members bsshog40 Posted June 16 Author Members Report Posted June 16 I don't know, I think if someone doesn't know much about a thread that's posted, but likes the content of the thread, a like button would let the original poster at least know someone read their post. Having to quote and then add a comment or emoji, tends to lengthen threads out soo far that most just get forgotten or just someone not wanting to read multiple pages of two word replies. Quote
Members Constabulary Posted June 16 Members Report Posted June 16 (edited) a personal comment suits better here I´d say. I never hit any like or dislike button - no matter where. But I´m Generation X and not very social media affine anyway.

Members dikman Posted June 16 Members Report Posted June 16 I dislike "like" buttons and never use them if they're there. On one forum a member who seemed to think he was particularly "helpful" (he wasn't) had a sig line asking people to "like" him if they found his post useful. He was obviously trying to gather likes! I've never felt the need for such ego-building, if my post is helpful to anyone that's great, if not so what. If I find a post particularly useful I'll say so in the post.

Members Gezzer Posted June 16 Members Report Posted June 16 For me ....... if I don't have time for at least a couple of words to show my feelings on a topic , I am to busy to be fooling around on a forum Quote
Members bsshog40 Posted June 17 Author Members Report Posted June 17 Well I guess the majority here is no "like" button. Lol I for sure won't be bringing that up again. 🤣 Quote
Members bsshog40 Posted June 17 Author Members Report Posted June 17 It is funny tho' how this thread gets more replies than actual leather threads. Lol Quote
