I don't believe it has any real value here.

This board is for questions and answers as well as information exchange not who likes who, which IMO, is how it will quickly evolve. If you want to be liked, use FB or become a TWIT. If you want to communicate information, use FT.

Additionally, if you have a "like" you should have a "dislike" as a counterbalance. While you're at it, how about an IBTL button.

I dislike a lot of the misinformation that's posted and would welcome a way to indicate it with a simple button, equivalent to a -1. Maybe you could label it BS.

You can accomplish the same thing with the use of a -1 in addition to the +1. Also, will the "like" or "dislike" count as a post? If not, the post count padders won't use it.

I probably got a little carried away but that's FT. If you don't like what I wrote, don't "like" it!
