I would love that. I try not to post unless I have something to add, and just saying "agree with Omega" isn't really adding something. (btw, omega, I often agree with you!)
maybe an agree button? idk. I don't think it should rerank posts or anything, jsut be a way for people to show support?

Haha, thanks TRVA!
One of the other forums I frequent has implemented a 'Like' button, so you can like forum posts much like you can on Facebook. I find myself looking for them on my other forums since I've gotten so used to them there :-D
Is it cold in here?:
We tried that a while back -- it's an optional feature of the forum software.

Hodgy, one of the main admins, feared this would cause a sort of popularity/unpopularity contest.
I'm not sure he's completely wide of the mark.
On the one other forum I frequent, I have the most liked post in forum history :mrgreen:

I mean, would it really have more of an affect than people posting "I agree with Gareth"? As long as the likes don't count toward post ranking, people aren't notified when there are likes, etc. a 'like' would just be an "I agree"
I could possibly see people freaking out when their posts don't get likes, but people also do that when their posts don't get replies.
another option might be to enable likes only for certain forums. Discuss and WCDT. Chatter doesn't really need it, I'm not sure relate needs it.
