RE: LIKES
I had a thought in regards to this subject and I hope one of the mods sees this idea. I don't know if it's possible but would we be able to change 'Like' to 'Love'? I think it'd be great to see people loving posts and having posts be loved. It somehow seems more positive and general than a 'like'.

RE: LIKES
I also like the idea of how it will scatter the word Love everywhere throughout the website. I feel like that in itself can have positive effect.

RE: LIKES
There is energy behind each click, changing it to a less distorted form might have big repercussions! Maybe we should try it if it isn't too big of a deal for Steve.
There is no magic greater than honest distortion toward love.

RE: LIKES
I was hoping one would see it and comment but sure someone can PM. I just thought it would kind of set us apart from all the mass 'liking' sites out there. Maybe we'll start a new movement.

RE: LIKES
Well, they said no, they don't think people will use it as much as 'likes'. Oh well.

RE: LIKES
I get what they mean, its the idea that because 'Liking' is more general it is more accessible to more individuals.

RE: LIKES
I imagine the changes that would need to be made to the site code probably wouldn't be considered worth the result. I think 'Like' is just seen as more 'wide-reaching' than anything else. I think it's less intimate which will supposedly be comfortable for more people.
They seem pretty set on their decision.

There needs to be a "bullshit" button.

RE: LIKES
Maybe we should just add more emoticons.

This is how Slack does it! A real time forum / chat room / archive, Slack is our main communication system at work. They have this concept of "reactions" that allow you to select a message and assign an emoji reaction to it. Different emojis can be used, and it tracks who reacted with what emoji. So you'll see like a smiley or heart next to a message and can see how many people reacted with that emoji--it's kind of like "liking" or "favoriting" something but with more resolution since you can choose any emoji. It can be hilarious, or you can use it to instant polls on a quesiton -- count up who reacted with "thumbs up" and "thumbs down" or something like that. Really cool.
Just an idea.

It is not that love will tell you what to do.

RE: LIKES
I think the Like button works fairly well and gives a little more catalyst with the forum. A dislike button might be a little over the top, i could see it causing a little to much catalyst haha. I tend to feel things are fine the way they are. If someone needs to express a dislike or a like for a post, couldn't they simply do so by replying to the post? Seems rather obvious but if we just add a lot of buttons , it seems more likely that people won't reply as much because you can simply give a post a yes or a no vote basically.
