Request for Like/Thank Button

[Hibi]

Ahhh, but a Like isn't as entertaining and witty as you are, Dargo!

Okay EPM! There's NO reason to butter me up here, ya know.

Ya see, I've ALREADY cast my "yes" vote in that poll o' yours here.

(...in fact, I think I was the very FIRST person to cast their vote in it today)

-Liked

I LIKE your LIKE!

[Hibi]

The fact that there may have been a couple of posters who got off on how many "likes" they got, is a red herring. It doesn't diminish the value of the "like" button for users of the button.

Yep, I agree, Cuthbert.

And GEE, wouldn't it be great if instead of my having to quote you here in order express this thought, there was some kind of, oh I dunno, maybe a "LIKE" button or SOMETHING I could have used INSTEAD???

(...what a novel idea, wouldn't ya say?!)

LOL

LIKE!

My record for LIKES in a single post was 17 at TCM. It was a dry comment targeting the infamous "enfant terrible."

MissWonderly3 (Where are you, BTW?) posted something about Asta that garnered 23 likes.

I don't keep track, but TCM published the list (that I visited maybe two or three times in all the years). The highest was was well into the 20s.

For the record, I don't think that I have experienced any orgiastic dances of enthusiasm.

You should do your orgiastic dance of enthusiasm. I've always thought of you as a Maenad!

No, despite my occasional extravagance, I am more a Hermes fan. But if I were a young hot thing I would most assiduously vie for a place in heart of that orgiastic God-dy to which you indirectly refer.
And besides I could never be Maenad. After all you have to be female for that. And I am not.

17 Likes? Wow, I had three on one of my posts, along with a sad and two confused and a rotten egg.

It was a lucky break. My average LIKE per post was not that impressive. It be like a batting average of about .209.

And it was like dirty money. I was make fun of another member.

. . . And besides I could never be Maenad. After all you have to be female for that. And I am not.

It's the 21st century. You can be anything you want. Just a matter of changing your . . . pronouns.

Okay, we have to think buttons here. If the flood gates are open to the Like button, what other buttons are out there? Can Lomm make buttons up or create new buttons or what? I would like to see some creative and sarcastic and hurtful buttons. Like a Lame button, or Off Topic button, or Where Do You Get Off button, or Nobody Likes You button,

Surely you jest. But I wonder if we are going to have another vote on a THANKS button. Surely I jest. Maybe we need A button for OH PERISH THE THOUGHT.

I guess I'm just an old Apollonian. I knew you were a bloke. Interesting that you are a Hermes fan. I can picture you strolling around with one of the new Hermes bags for men.

I like the "like", "thanks" and "sad" icons. What I would really like, though, is a "quote selection" option.

At 'over there' there was an option to select part of the quote if you wanted to just answer that. Just select and the software would ask, "quote this" and the poster being drawn from would be alerted. I don't think we can do that here at least without a lot of trouble. You can cut and paste the partial post but the member whose post was being quoted would not be alerted by the software.

Strangely enough, I get alerted any time I am in a quote chain so if someone quotes a person who quoted me I am altered even though I wasn’t directly quoted myself.

I don't think I get an alert by simply being in the quote chain. Only if I am quoted directly. I think. I'll have to take notice. It's strange, some of us may get alternate soft-ware versions. One posted here that he/she did not have the Quick Reply option/

CID Mentioned it I think on the old forum but there should be an “agree” button if there is a like button also. I think most people just used thanks for agree which is probably not what it was intended for.

I noticed that anything mocking either that particular poster you mention or a certain former ex-president would always garner loads of likes. I think all of my most liked posts were just pithy remakes against those two individuals.
