Title: A "LIKE" Feature
Post by: Marcus on December 13, 2013, 07:20:29 AM: I think this has been asked once before but I can't find it, so here it is again.

What are people's thoughts about adding a "Like" feature to this forum.

It's running on another forum I moderate on and I think it works well.

It's works the same way the Facebooks like feature works

Basically, it's for people who agree with a post, but don't have anything to add to the conversation, but want to acknowledge themselves as agreeing.

See example:

I know what you're saying... but sometime I see a comment which is funny and want to acknowledge it, without having to make an extra post with a ++

It just might keep the threads neater

Post by: Biggles on March 28, 2014, 08:50:06 PM: It would be a bit like the "Three word game" on the FarRiders' site. It's such a naff way to build a post count that the Forum is programmed not to count contribs to the game "story".

On my other forum where it's in place it doesn't count as a post
