Like button and emoji reactions to posts
« on: April 6, 2022, 09:29:27 pm »
Hi
I'm on a few other forums and they have features where people can "like" a user's posts or select an emoji to use as a reaction to the post.

I searched for a discussion on rawk about this and found a thread from 2011. Maybe about time for another one?

The reason I thought this would be good on here is that sometimes in a thread multiple people will quote reply a post with only an emoji and I think it would be better served as a like or emoji reaction on the actual post, as it would clean up threads.

Hello mate, it has been asked before, a like button is not something we have any interest in at all. I do agree with this point though, often threads are messy because multiple people quote the same (often long) post which can make a thread really difficult to read. That just needs a bit of self-moderation and for posters to take a bit of time to edit the post they are quoting before posting themselves.

Id like to see a notification for when being quoted, any chance of that happening?

If you could have a word John. I most spend 22 hours a day trawling through threads in search of some validation.

What do you do with the other two?
