A lot of forums include a 'like' button to show appreciation of a user's post (a la Facebook!).

How about it?
 
I've often thought this would be a good feature.

An update of the 'smilies' wouldn't go amiss too. I mean, when was the last time Oldman was used?! :oldman:

When Pastry is about :wink:
 
I thought we had this already & did things differently here...

A like is +1 or :thumbsup: .... bad form is :thumbsdown:

Well I qualified for free prescriptions recently, so maybe it's time I used it! :lol: :oldman:

Being an :oldman: git I generaly like :thumbsup: things just the way they is. :P

Yes fair enough, but that involves creating a new post. OK no biggie, but a ‘like’ achieves the same thing in one keystroke.

In case you haven't noticed. Some of us like to create new post. :thumbsup: Even when they are off topic, irrelevant, drivel. :cry: I know, but can be fun and passes the hours waiting for the rain to stop. :roll: :lol: :wink:
 
nah, don't start turning the forum into that Faceplant thing. Next it'll be a competition to see who can get the most 'friends'...
 
Besides, 'Like' buttons don't artificially inflate your post count like a simple :thumbsup: does.
Where's the fun in that? :P

It’s even got the same amount of hair as you Fred :poke: :oldman:
 
I see how that works. 2 likes raised my post count .03% 8)
Another forum I belong to uses likes and the likes show next to the posts in your screen name info. So starting this now would look bad for you old timers. You know 60799 posts 2 likes :D
