Every post on the MySwag forum is a useful one, but sometimes it doesn't need comment, but it maybe useful and a simple like would be a great way to show it. So in the interests of mr and taking the pressure off Jules -   Does Jules need to add a like button to posts?

Many other forums have setup reputation systems and it always ends it tears.

If you like a post send that person a PM.

A very successful forum AULRO has had a "this post was useful" for years and it's a great feature to the site. But it's a democracy and you're entitled to your view and vote ;)

I like the LIKE idea, but I'm feeling a bit like a puppy chasing a laser beam. I'm getting distracted by the bright red and can't focus on the actual posts :-[

On second thought, can I change my vote to no. I'd feel the need to like everyone's posts so nobody felt left out, and that kind of defeats the purpose :-\

Ok,
So I did a quick look on the mods for SMF and there is a simple plugin which I've just activated. I'll leave it on for a few days if the concesus says we don't like it I can remove it with one mouse click. Easy uninstall.

Yeah the button colour is a little bright, and yes systems like this break other forums but let's see if it works for myswag. If not its gone. But it's worthwhile to try.

Cheers

Oh for the love of sweet baby bejeezus ... please tell me that every post isn't going to have a big orange flag waving about at the bottom. If we have to have a "like" function, what about placing it up near the quote one, or over in the bottom right hand corner ... and tone it down a little too.

While we're at it, lets even things out. Every yin needs a yang ... so how about dislike function, maybe displayed as a little steaming dog turd, known forthwith as the what a load of crap button ...  ;D

Great update Firefox, not sure I like the colour and "in your face" nature of the icon. 

For what it's worth I reckon it could be a little less obvious, maybe sitting it the lower right corner of the post with the "report to moderator" link.

I did do the update whilst in bed this morning. But when I fire the laptop up latter I'll try and get into the styles and see if I can change the colour, I too am not a fan of the colour. Location might stay the same.
