Forum "like" feature?

Post by _TinOmen_ »

I suggest adding a phpbb addition to support FB-style "Like" button to like forum posts. I often see posts that I want to show my appreciation to but don't have time to write reply (or idea what to write), and a "Like" button is nice for these situations I think.

(Like)

I often want to thumbs up a post without having anything meaningful to add to it.

Wouldn't bother with a reddit style two way / karma system as people can get a bit preoccupied with it and people can end up demonised - just a thumbs up ought to be sufficient.

Good idea, and "dislike" button for most hated posts and posters

How much effort is it to post a reply saying you like/agree with something?
Don't think we need a like feature, personally.
