What's with this 'Thumbs up!' or 'Thumbs down!' nonsense?

[Socialist Sid]

Well I have turned mine off, what Bozza intended as an enhancement has rather been hijacked by stalkers being petty.

Thank God for the " Ignore " button I say.

The thumbs save you the time writing an "Agree" or "Disagree" comment.

As explained above, you can turn on the notifications for the thumbs to make it less intrusive.

After the New Year I will run a poll so people can vote on:

- no thumbs
- positive thumbs only
- positive and negative thumbs (as now)

(Another new feature is that if someone is on your ignore list, you now won't see them if someone else quotes them.)

I laugh at people who actually use the ignore function.

After the New Year will be 2015

I will no doubt be given grief for this, or be accused of being a Bozza-licker whatever that may be, but as far as I am concerned, [MENTION=6886]Bozza[/MENTION] can do what the hell he likes with this site, adding or removing whatever features he likes. He does a great job of running this place, and I for one am always grateful for it.

If you don't like certain things, don't use them. Simples.

First time I have logged on from the computer for days... think I will be sticking to Tapatalk!

So your way of fighting it is by thumb downing everything

That's very kind - however I'm happy to go with the consensus with most added features. If people think they detract from the site, I'm happy to bin them (or not add them in the first place).

It was fun when you could see how many thumbs up/down users had had in total, can we get that back?

 

[Spicy]

If we are having a thumbs up and a thumbs down option can we also have a "who gives a damn" option?

 

[Nibble]

On a more constructive note I don't really see the point of it for this site. We have a poll function.

You can't have a poll over every reply.

Watch me.

Some people take them too seriously dougdeepsleep has just taken the trouble to hunt around for my last post over a week ago, just to give me a thumbs down.
I like them, let them stay just for shits and giggles !

"Who gives a damn" is a thumbs down surely?

Thanks for looking me up after your short absence from the site. Oh. you've given me 4, no 5 thumbs down already. I am so honoured.

Yes I'm a cripple. Perhaps you'd like to make fun of that too. And please stop sending me PM's, I keep telling you that I'm straight.
