Will SD Add a "Like" Button?

[Enderw24]

@Jinx

It’d be soooo convenient if SDopers could simply “like” someone’s post rather than clog up the SD server with all kinds of superfluous posts that equate to a simple “like”! (Or, does Zuckerboogie hold the patent on the “Like” button?)

I agree

@chiroptera

^like. +1.

Didn’t there used to be a “like” function, back in the day?

I Disagree.

@jonesj2205

Isn’t going to happen:

Why No "Like" Button? - About This Message Board - Straight Dope Message Board

FB-Style "Like" Button? Oh C'mon! - About This Message Board - Straight Dope Message Board

any functionality for a "Thanks" or "Like" button (i.e. Facebook)? - About This Message Board - Straight Dope Message Board

Aw snap!

@Joey_P

No, we never had one, and I don’t see it ever happening around here.

LOL

@Miller

Death first.

@VinylTurnip

Like, no?

ROTFLMFAO!

@elmwood

A one-click popularity contest … sounds intriguing. :rolleyes:

You owe me a new keyboard!

@TBG

It wouldn’t save anything, people that click like would then just post stuff like “hey I just liked your post”

hey I just liked your post!

@Jack_Batty

It would keep me from having to come up with anything worthwhile to say while I’m randomly clicking things on the Internet.

Like I’ve ever had anything worthwhile to say.

@jabiru

We could really cut down on superfluous posting by having just the OP, to which all others could click either a ‘like’ or an ‘unlike’ button. Of course we’d all be bored out of our brains but the hamsters could have a well-deserved rest.
