Ok so I feel stupid even arguing that a dumb like button matters.
But it does.
When you're actually having an in-depth back and forth technical conversation with a large group, not just posting random blurbs and feeling big from getting a bunch of likes, but when you make an important point that is relavent to the conversation, the like button is a way that you can let it be known that you read that post and agree with it if you do. Now when someone makes a point you're gonna either have 10 people reply to say they agree (which will clog up the threads and make them less efficient/less enjoyable to read... ala 10thousand "I like this" posts, or people will post on a thread and get no feedback and will go elsewhere.
One "like" can say a thousand words.
I can only "like" 3 things a day using +rep, and have to wait 10 days before "liking" something again? when Im having a heated convo with several people... not very conducive to the whole point of the forums...
unless theres a technical issue that is preventing the "like" button from being re-instated, I think it's a very unwise choice to remove it.
Again, I feel stupid trying to argue for a stupid little like button, but it is so integral to the way RIU works (since Ive come here at least) that Im considering leaving over it.
Rollie, I havent heard you weigh in on this topic yet? Any official word from Rollie/potroast/admin...
yes, this. all of it. maybe i don't want to bump a trainwreck of a thread* just to agree with someone or stamp my approval on what they said. if there's going to be a 10 character rule to avoid the "clutter" of two-word posts, i don't see how removing the like button jibes with that philosophy as it forces people to post something instead of clicking a button. it's sort of like poll threads. maybe 50 people voted but only 20 people commented. same concept. not everyone wants to sound off but but most of us still want to be collectively "heard". the like button solves all of this.
*i did not mean to insinuate that this particular thread is a trainwreck. i find this thread delightful.
Thanks and I think you are pretty nifty.....can I get a like for that?yes, this. all of it. maybe i don't want to bump a trainwreck of a thread* just to agree with someone or stamp my approval on what they said. if there's going to be a 10 character rule to avoid the "clutter" of two-word posts, i don't see how removing the like button jibes with that philosophy as it forces people to post something instead of clicking a button. it's sort of like poll threads. maybe 50 people voted but only 20 people commented. same concept. not everyone wants to sound off but but most of us still want to be collectively "heard". the like button solves all of this.

I wish I could "like" this. C'mon Rollie, whats up?

The site is still profiting, I thought I had seen a figure stating RIU was worth 1.7million?damn dude chill its a site provided for free
you do not work for site they do not need to explain things to u
u been here 4 months and site owes u something?
and u going to demand answers
go give some grow advice u owe the site something for the 4 months u been here learning

Like /.....Yes, we are aware that you want the Like feature. We would Like to bring it back, but are having trouble with it. We are working on it, and hopefully will be able to implement it again.
what does that have to do with anything yes the site makes money what did u think it was not for profit?The site is still profiting, I thought I had seen a figure stating RIU was worth 1.7million?

ok whatever lmfaowow, you really need to come down from where ever the hell you are that makes you think you need to get so snippy with someone who is simply agreeing (with a one line post) with the overall topic of the thread. You're pretty quick to assume you know all about me, calling me out for being here 4 months, when it says you've been here 1 month.... hmmm is you're info accurate? max rep after one month?... no, its prob all fucked up after the meltdown. Stop and think that other peoples info may be fubar'd also. And the only reason I started posting here was to help others. Whatever, not the point. You dont need to jump peoples shit if there're on topic and simply asking for a reply from RollItUp, which followed shortly after (thank you Rollie). Youre the one that needs to chill dude, if you actually spent time in any threads, you'd see that it's a hot topic right now, every other post being a "I wish I could like this" post.... damn, what fucking planet do you live on?
no u are a johnny come lately to this thread and several more on subjectexactly...
