Forum News! New Post rating feature!!!

I just moved the "Dislike" post rating button to the far right side of the post rating bar for a couple of reasons:

  1. Some people are accidently hitting it instead of "Like" (I've done it a couple of times)
  2. We don't want people using it a lot....so lets put it in the least used location
 
Idle times during MORE rains ! ............. LOL ! Offered for consideration, Gang.
EYE ROLL - X1 - jetboaters - sm.jpg
 
I like both ideas but wont the 'love it' take away from the 'like' stats?
 
There really is no "take away"....it is really only about expressing your opinion on something. All positive ratings total up to the same total. There is only one neutral rating. So if you hit "Winner" or "Like" or "Love" or "Informative" etc it adds up to 1 positive.
 
I guess this means my "eye roll" rating suggestion got vetoed in committee ??? .....LOL

Eye roll would be either neutral or negative, and we are trying to keep these positive.

The only negative one we MAY implement is a SPAM one - to be reserved for TRUE spam only. This one - if implemented, would "soft hide" a post if marked x amount of times as SPAM. Soft hide means you could still click on it to see the contents.
 
I sincerely you you know how much I (and so many others here) sincerely appreciate all of the extended time & effort y'all put into this forum to make it as incredible as it already is.
Hopefully you understand that my suggestion was simply offered here to put a smile on y'all faces. And nothing more.
Best Wishes, Mikey Lulejian - Lake Oconee, GA
 
Not sure on the "Hold My Beer" rating.....thoughts?

Also thoughts on the following:

Camera Icon - Meaning - Nice Picture/Video
Light Bulb Icon - Meaning - Great Idea
Sunglasses Icon - Meaning - Cool Looking


For the SPAM icon which do you like?
