What happened with this? There was a bit of a discussion a couple of years ago I remember.

It is a useful way of conveying ones agreement with a post without the clunky method of quoting the post just to say - "Me too!!"

Its crap...this isnt Faceache.....

If you CBA to craft a decent reply then why bother ?

Likes are utterly meaningless and just kill discussion.

I can't say I'm a fan of likes either. Nothing worse than someone who thinks loads of likes validates their post.

It's doesn't quite work like that. You don't even need to be accurate to end up with loads of likes. Just say something a bit edgy or confrontational and like, like, like.

On forums it highlights grudges and cliques. We've got enough grudge matches on PH without making it an official point scoring contest.

This seems to crop up at least once a year.

Every time it does, it's resoundingly booted into touch.

Let's hope it's the same this time around.

The question has been asked numerous times before and it's a feature that was not considered necessary.

So rather than delay the inevitable, I'll just close this now.
