A new feature you might 'like'
« on: February 18, 2012, 03:40:31 pm »
I have just finalised adding a new feature which allows you to 'like' posts, in a similar way to how it is done on the popular social network Facebook.

You are unable to like your own posts though, because doing that would be more than a little egotistical. Have a play around and let me know if you see anything that looks a bit weird. I haven't had much of a chance to play with it too much myself.

Just for the record I will be playing around with the settings as I see exactly how each one works. Things such as limiting the amount of likes shown, as well as other stuff like having the amount of likes a user has in their profile space on the left hand side of the posts. Its going to be a bit of a wait and see approach.

I like the like feature very much. It's very likeable and should be liked by all. Like.

No. But it is possible to dislike a post you have previously liked. Not quite the same but you know.

So pretty much 'like' then 'unlike'. Ouch, that'll hurt. Kick them whilst being proud of a liked post. :P

Am I allowed to go on a 'like' button genocide and like every post known to man?

We're better than Facebook. It should be the 'love' button. :P

^Thanks Kru! :D

Is the like monitor thing in our little information boxes a record of how many posts we've liked or how many of our posts have been liked?
