Introducing "like and dislike" to the forum

[alegotardo]

I had already posted before with a conservative position, while still giving my opinion that it "could be useful in some way".

But, after think more about this, I can only conclude that:
Stop wasting time with superfluous things, something like this will never be implemented.

Why? Because we've already seen many much more interesting and useful ideas that were never implemented, the admins prioritize security above everything else, and if a suggestion is not about to fix something or genuinely adding significant value, it would not be implemented.

End of story!

Are you trying to say that the higher the number of views determines if a thread is liked by people?

like/dislike require a topic to be visited.
The number of views and replies clearly show which topic is of more interest to forum members. So, if someone wants to find out what is 'hot', they don't need likes.

This is not Facebook, where some kind of algorithm will add up likes and dislikes and, based on that, serve content to each user according to their interests. Well, for example, if you write the word casino once, gambling posts will be pushed to you.
What would be next? Would music be added with each new topic? That would surely get a lot of likes.

I hope you understood my point, I’m not talking about the OP opinion being good or bad, I’m just talking about what you said about using number of views and replies on a thread to determine if people like or dislike the thread, and I’m saying the numbers of views and replies on a thread those not determine that, what it only determines is engagement and engagement can be like or dislike.

I’m not in support of introducing a dislike or like option in this forum because it makes no sense since meriting a post shows you like the post and your comment on that post or thread can also show if you like or dislike the thread.
The forum is okay the way it is however people have their opinion.
