How about a DON'T LIKE button?

What the hell....can I get some respect for my brain? LOL.

Dagny D.E.W. I'm not saying you would do this, but read Mariah Moore's post closely and that's basically how many other will use this button you want. I haven't been on the boards as long as you say you have been, but in my short period I've been on I've run across many that would abuse this button as Mariah as stated Originally Posted by Rcoop361

I did go back and read her post and did not get the impression that she would hit the button multi times but that she would like the chance to hit it once rather than post.

that is all I'm asking is for the ones who NEVER post to be able to make a comment, quietly at the bottom saying that maybe that poster isn't as clever as they think they are.

We are all full of ourselves at one time or another, I think this could be a small way to say..... uh no, take another look. if you can only hit the button ONCE then you wouldn't be able to make a huge wave one way or another. (they could hit the LIKE button multi times?) But hitting it just once per person could have an effect on the sensible people.

It would not tell the self-centered ones that they aren't the top dog in the whole community. So I guess this is hopeless. But just a thought

Hitting a button with no response IS NOT COMMENTING Originally Posted by Dagny D.E.W.

Again you have missed my point, I didn't say she would use the button in that manner, but she was pointing out those that would. As for how many times you can hit the button depends on how many different IPs you can get (Logging in as a Guest). Now I did say your button would be fine if it required a comment, that if someone dislikes my comment I at least get a idea WHY and have a chance to discuss it (after all THIS IS A DISCUSSION BOARD for information exchange) and if you agree with the the comment for dislike then my all means hit their LIKE button, which would show you agree with that reason to Dislike the post!!!

WHAT? even with a comment .... we can...NOT .... understand. sigh..... I think the LIKE/DON'T LIKE still give us a better idea of what you meant.

thanks for making my point

Enter into the discussions or go back to bed and pull the covers over your head....

IMO... this Don't Like button crap comes from the whiners perspective that jump into threads and cannot present logical reasons for their arguments....

If you don't like something.. say why.. If you want to support something.... say so...

Or you could really contribute to a thread by posting;
-1
and if you really dislike a post you could do a -1000.

Hi Tex, nice to see that you are still around

If you stay with 1s and 0s .... then two 1s i.e. 11 = 3
