gritineye Posted April 2, 2012 Author Share Posted April 2, 2012 Lee, yes but it's not just liking the thread as a whole, but a single posts that is particularly pleasing to read, and this could well be the only sensible or humorous reply amongst a whole thread of tiresome pedantic waffle.....errm I'll stop now.

Joris Posted April 2, 2012 Share Posted April 2, 2012 The thing is, if somebody posts in a thread that they like it, it's moved to the top of the New Posts page. Thus people see it, look at it and perhaps like it too (and say the do). If we have a like button then the threads would be quickly forgotten because they are never pushed back to the top...

gritineye Posted April 2, 2012 Author Share Posted April 2, 2012 Very good point Joris, never thought of that angle, so maybe best not to bother with one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
