Like button for forum?
lepetitfromage:
Me too! I like QC light. The appearance of the button isn't enough to make me like it any less though. :-)
Method of Madness:
I feel I should go on record as saying I fucking hate this idea and wish it were never implemented :grumpypuss:
bhtooefr:
I think the button's UI implementation is rather jarring, and I personally think anonymous likes might be better (although the moderators should absolutely be able to see who liked a post).
valkygrrl:
Likes are a wonderful idea. Friends will start liking all of each other's posts, cliques will be obvious, new people _will_ know who it it not permissible to disagree with and exactly how many people will dogpile on them for expressing a contrary view.
PLus a like button is all like social and stuff! Everyone loves facebook right? Making something more social networkish will uh, popular with the kids and... Nope I've got nothing.
But I'll press the like button like a good little monkey since that is The Way Things Are now.
MooskiNet:
I'd argue a forum becoming an insular campground for the 'old guard' is just as likely with or without 'likes,' though I agree there's a tendency to cliquishness when who's liking who is obvious.
Like any other online community, the key's moderation. That's covered well, in my opinion, and if they think the like button is causing more problems than it solves, they'll probably make it go away.
