Likes given and likes received

[Patrick]

It's hard not to use the like button. I've been doing it for a couple days.

I would really like a button that only means that I have indeed read the post. Not that I liked it or not. Otherwise, I have to post a lot more just to say: "Thank you for your post".

On another forum I go to, there is a similar button. It's called "Thanks" and simply means that you are thanking the poster for the post.

I guess the "like" button could be used in this way too.
