Question:
Are you in favor of the "LIKES" button?
Option 1: Yes
votes: 15
Option 2: No
votes: 5
Option 3: Don't care
votes: 4
Personally, I don't like the "Likes" button, no pun intended. Since this is a forum for discussion, I prefer that someone would post and say, "I like your post for the following reasons..." rather than press a button, which is too easy to do. Secondly, it gives too much clout to Stromboli, (just kiddin'), however, it does give the appearance that some people are being rewarded (yes, I'm jealous) and, more importantly, we don't know why. We should encourage open discussion/controversy, not likeability.
Just my 2¢.
What's yours?
No.
I put no because I didn't institute the like button and the fact that I have more likes than anyone is embarrassing, frankly. I think it is an unfair reference to the quality of posters. Clout? News to me.
My main objection is that 'like' button is used in different ways than 'liking' the idea in the post.

That's because you are an old white man 'with a beard' and mainstream, sweety. :dance:
I like it in that I mostly post from my phone nowadays, and don't have time to Swype a paragraph response as to why I agree with someone. Just this has taken way too long to feel worth it.

Much agreed, this is a problem, and it's really the sort of schoolyard bullshit which a discussion forum can do without. People tend to "Like" a post because they like the source of it, who frequently "Like"s their own posts. If you really like what someone is saying, you should be able to say so without embarrassing yourself. I also tire of the scorecard being always in your face - whether or not you have just said something brilliant or stupid, no numbers from a childish popularity contest should have any bearing on how people respond.
I must admit I quite like likes, I have been on forums with and without them. The problem is that without them people do not tend to post I agree, good post etc and then posting can feel like a lonely business especially for someone new to a forum. Even if people did post just to say they liked a post then we would be faced with a forum with endless posts saying-
Quote^THIS
Which I would not find pleasing
However having said that I strongly dislike 'likes' being recorded which sets up a point scoring system under a persons name, this is made even worse here because obviously the likes showing are from some recent point in time.
Also on a personal note which I think may apply to Baruch as-well, is that I will like a post because I think it might be very well said or a strong argument not just because I am in total agreement with it. When there is point scoring others can easily get the impression this is mere -point whoring.
So I would very much like the point recording part of the system removed if that is possible.

I find myself feeling obligated when someone likes me to like them back, which is stupid. Get rid of it.

I will "like" a post sometimes to show that I saw a post, and not only to or even necessarily because I "liked" it...
A good point is a good point even if it's not a popular or likable one.
People shouldn't say things simply to be liked or rewarded; they should be honest... But at the same time there isn't anything wrong with getting some acknowledge for when something is liked or a good point.

Sounds like a personal problem...
No one is forcing you to do anything. Some people like the feature. I don't think it's fair for those people to remove it based on a few vocal people that don't like it or feel obligated and use it, then feel bad about using the button because they have a poor sense of self control.

I am a fan of the like button for reasons said above, when I see a very good post or just a funny picture that I like, I will like it. You can't expect or request a full fledged paragraph for every post, at that point people will lose interest and that defeats the purpose entirely
a like is a little acknowledgment that your post was appreciated without a full fledged "YO THAT POST WAS THE SHIT MAN, HERE ARE MY REASONS AS TO WHY THAT POST WAS THE SHIT"
Keep it

Your position is different. You are a mod. Honetly, I haven't seen you exploiting the like button in an argument you are having about your personal opinions. You do that when there is a conflict as far as I see which is to prevent something going forward to a worse situation. To send a message.
I wasn't talking about that. I am talking about people that I know very well that don't read most posts longer than 5 lines, but liking posts of some other posters regulary, because they do not like the poster at the other 'side'. Mostly, it is very obvious to anyone who pays attention, because you can easily see that they have no idea what the conversation is about from what they write. They repeat something you wrote 4 posts ago to you if they get in any conversation as if they are breaking something new to the thread.

I'm pretty sure I liked posts when I didn't want or feel like quoting them before a I was a mod. Sometimes it was because I was just lazy and didn't want to type something and other times because there wasn't anything to add because the post was a good point... And other times because anything I would say would be redundant and just cluttering the thread.
I like likes for those reasons and I liked them because of that before I was a mod.

I guess I don't really care either way. I mostly use it when I see someone post more or less exactly what I was going to say or when someone makes an excellent point and there's really nothing for me to add to it. So rather than quote that person and say "I agree" or "Good point" I just like the post rather than spam up the topic.

I like the like button. I use it to show I like an idea or statement. If I super like an idea or statement (I really identify with it) I'll mention that. Otherwise it is a shorthand way of saying I agree with it or it is a good idea--and I don't have to devote an entire post to tell them that.

I said why I don't like it. I don't care much really.
But I wrote thousands of posts here before we had the like system. And I know it affects the way and the amount of responses people give, shape the path conversation takes place.
Pros: you get to press a button.
Cons: we're all going to die someday, and that's just terrible.

Yeah. I definitely see your point. I do see people say things for the likes... Safe-ish comments that don't really contribute intellectually. I think the like count under our avatar is a bigger instigator of that type of thing though, in my opinion. I think the likes should stay, but I would be pleased if the like count disappeared.
If your saying things just to get your like count up and you don't actually have something to contribute, it's just fluff...

I don't like them, was against them, never use them, never pay attention to who has what and don't really care. Of all the things an atheist forum would not need is a fucking "LIKE" button….one thing all atheists are fully aware of is they are not going to be "liked". Overcompensation?

So what about joining the anti point counting group?
Is it possible, and if it is could we persuade the majority? I think that might be a better chance for you.
I voted, I don't care. But if there was an "I don't care that much" choice, I would have voted for that. It's not a big deal to me, but it reminds me of the reader comments after Yahoo news articles, which are filled with so much ignorant comment that I feel degraded just by reading them. It reminds me of something that appeals to the lowest common denominator in our society. Like opinion polls being reported as news, with factual information only of secondary importance. But that might only be because I associated with low quality news sources and pet videos on Utube.
Having said that, there's no real harm in it. It's just has kind of cheesy feel about it IMO. And when I do give a comment a "like," in the back of my mind, I often wonder why. Well, it says I liked the comment, but it doesn't really add anything to the conversation.
Someone said in the interest of balance, we should have a "Don't like" button. I would like to propose a "Don't care" button, and possibly even a "Don't give a shit" button, too.
How about this? When a person doesn't get a high enough percentage of "likes" from others, the mods should ban him/her from the forum. Later he can get reinstated during a probationary period where he has to click the "like" button a sufficient number of times to show that he sincerely likes everyone and he's worthy of being allowed in the forum again.
Maybe I'm missing the whole point here. What's the purpose of the button again?

That's the reason why this thread was created. We shouldn't encourage people to post on the basis of popularity. If people like/agree with a post, it's my opinion that it would be better to response in a post.

Well, I actually do keep you on ignore. It's just every so often on a topic that's pretty neutral I'll click that "Show me the post" button out of curiosity. But generally, I don't. In fact, I'm so certain you'll come up with some vitriolic reply to this about how I'm an American baby murderer bred in the military industrial complex of hate who can't look past the tip of her ignorant nose to even begin to understand your superior viewpoint that I don't really plan on reading any response to this you have, so if you wanted to direct one at me for others to read, fine, but I don't plan on reading it.

I would say something is getting lost in translation, because if that's your translation, I would say mine is "I actually don't mind people who don't agree with me, but I do mind people who go around on judgmental rampages to make a point and then telling other people they're closed-minded for not cheerfully accepting the insults and refusing to listen to anything anyone else has to say on the subject once you've made up your mind."
But it's no matter, because I really do keep you on ignore for most things. Anyway, forum smileys. (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v644/SkinningDocs/running-around-smiley-emoticon_zpsd7vrg8hs.gif)
TomFoolery, I was talking about the old regulars like Hydra and Hijiri whose hobby is playing with the like button to provoke me. They both have had me on ignore for a long time, but read my posts to like others in specific threads.
Have I ever given you any impression that I was interested in your opinions or you reading or not reading my posts? I don't think so. On the contrary, I openly expressed that I don't respect your opinions. If this is about the FWD thread, I am such a TWD freak, I would probably post to a republican politician if he quoted my post about it.
And why you are still writing bits and pieces from the same post to me?

I very rarely read your posts unless someone quotes you (which the ignore button doesn't cover, sadly). Also, I "like" posts because I agree with them, not because I feel like provoking you. This may come as a shock, but my activities on this forum do not revolve around you. Maybe if you didn't go around playing the professional victim all the time, we wouldn't have as many disagreements. :lol:

I very rarely read your posts unless someone quotes you (which the ignore button doesn't cover, sadly). Also, I "like" posts because I agree with them, not because I feel like provoking you.
I will say some threads do start becoming quite cryptic after a while, and when people don't quote I'll look at them just to see what the hell is going on.

Damned ..if I had known all this time that being mean about liking things would make me so liked I would have been mean all this time .. 3 of you liked me being mean about clicking like for a stupid cat.
Now click like again OR ELSE!

Aww, you had to post another screenshot -AGAIN- to take attention that you put some people on ignore?
May be you are missing the point about the whole 'ignore' thing? Tyring too hard?

It's been my experience that only the most disciplined of forum communities can stay on topic for more than about two or three pages.

Yeah, I wish I didn't see this thread either, aitm. Turns out 'it had my name on it' as you guys say.

Now I feel compelled to write a treatise on the merits of the "like" feature. Unfortunately, it would probably make about as much sense as this picture.

Yeah, Wolf came up with the new Emoticons to sidetrack the issue. I see what you did there.......

There is worst...
Sometimes the topic is worth changing. It's kind of fun watching things devolve.
