LIKES POLL
do you like the like feature? or do you think b4 would probably be better w/o it?
poll results are anonymous.
personally, i like the feature, but i'm really missing how it used to be. it would only show the number of likes a post had received & you could choose to not see what users liked the post by not clicking the collapse/expand thingy.

RE: LIKES POLL
I'm with you in preferring that the likes be visible only by intentionally expanding the box. I don't much enjoy the forced visibility of likes.
If memory serves it was something we got stuck with in the last forum upgrade. Due to the complication of trying to modify MyBB's code, this was tabled until the next upgrade (which will come with the new site).
Memory is fuzzy. Austin or Garry may be able to clarify.

RE: LIKES POLL
Just another way for people to communicate, imo, but I can understand why some people would prefer to have the choice of seeing who liked, but then I also don't see why it is much different from a post. If you make a post to acknowledge another it is visible to everyone so I'm not sure why there is the greater issue of privacy surrounding likes.

my opinion:
any formal ranking / judgement system is probably a bad idea no matter how innocent it seems.
that said, i'm using it repeatedly to acknowledge posters w/o cluttering up threads unnecessarily; but i've already felt urges to unlike or like every post uniformly

RE: LIKES POLL
I think due to the nature of the common school system there is a tendency to associate numbers with 'grades' and thus to perceive higher numbers as 'more important' but I think this is an issue with perception rather than the numbers. It is only our own judgement which says that a post with one like is not the same as a post with three likes.

I've tried that once but the moderators really didn't like it.
I never had an issue with that... considering how many likes I have, lol
Edit: Hot damn, when did I pass the quintuple digits? O_O
Maybe I should unlike 10 posts so I am stuck at 9999 forever

RE: LIKES POLL
valid topic. I mostly vote against the like feature just because of how sensitive souls might interact with it (myself included). Also just in terms of its mechanics and how some of us frequent internet goers might relate to it regarding things like reddit/facebook so on and so forth. But its not like its a problem either.. Having the option to hide likes could be useful to some people.

RE: LIKES POLL
When I was new, I was even shy to like a post. I was thinking who cares for this silly newbie who knows squat, lol then I started to like a few, then major moment came when one day, I thought, who cares what I like, I just learn so much from all those guys I will just like anything that I learn or love lol
Then it's great because you really are not afraid to care for all those unknown people who explain these things so well and get all those crazy brilliant ideas

good point, This is more what I had in mind with my original post here.

RE: LIKES POLL
Thanks my grey lizard alien friend for the support.
Speaking of grey lizards, I had a podcast where I invite grey and lizard type aliens of the "we eat human flesh" type to come out of the shadows and be open about their thing, surely we have enough people on the planet that weird burial customs like being eaten by aliens is not out of the question, it may raise the prices of some goods but all in all its better to be in the light, besides we could sell them copper and seawater... Copper because thats apparently valuable to aliens I hear and seawater because we will soon have meters and meters extra of that stuff.
Your little friend, Pip, greets you with love for a loving reply.
Anyway, lets hope they don't mess this up.
Edit: Me trying to assist B4

Only took a glance but these seem to be the ones that cover the topic at least somewhat.
Pip is good, pip has not eaten any unbeliever souls lately, Pip has sated itself on noodles and meatballs, has thought of switching to soy instead of meatballs but the package costs more, though it has more in it is still more expensive. Pip dreams of cooking for Gordon Ramsey and getting at least a passable grade. Pip would make salad, potato and steak, spaghetti and sauce, and lembas bread. All others are self explanatory but lembas bread is bread where one third of the dough is various spices mixed with a distinctly paprika aftertaste so all the vitamins make you feel full from all the spices, cooked into white organic dough and lightly heated in the oven with a piece of creamy cheese on top. Pip would be content to get a "edible" or "passable" grade. Pip does not believe he will have opportunity to do so, pip is saddened by this but retains cuteness, nothing like having horns and being cute, like Chibi-Slaanesh.
