I would like to have this feature added to avoid empty posting, like in the following situations.

1. I find myself thinking "LOL" but I don't post it. Still want the poster to know his joke was appreciated.
2. I think to myself "haha owned" but that would be empty posting.
3. Avoid "+1"

I think the "Like this post" button could help avoid this kind of empty posting. It wouldn't even have to display WHO liked it, just a simple counter, with a small note like "Users that liked this post: # "

<-- Including this image somewhere in the process is mandatory :)

Thoughts?

  • does this look like the face of mercy?
Only if it states a list of the people liking it, otherwise what would happen is that member A is a douchenozzle, insults member B, members C to D are cowards but want to insult people, they all give +1 to the first one while in anonimity. Result: a big bunch of metoos.

Actually I just threw that suggestion with no names to get it approved easier :P If Valodim would like to go the extra mile and generate a small list of the users (which shouldn't prove too hard for his tech prowess), it would be great :D

My multitudinous hordes of fans will eclipse the sun.

Just as long as we don't add an accompanying :thumbsdown: button, I don't really see a problem.

i've seen forums that have a "thanks" button and underneath the post there's a list of users that thanked for the post, maybe someone already coded something similar for smf

Ever since you guys said this forum update sucked, Val has been ignoring us like a wealthy man ignores the common man.

Fools.

i know it demands time and effort but i didn't really like that this ended up in limbo like most other mod suggestions. i'd like to read a "i don't have time for this shit" "it'll be done later" or "not worth the effort" every once in a while
