I think that if you have seen any of Shylass's posts in the forums, or indeed have read any of her work, you'll be very aware that she is more than capable of stringing a coherent, correctly-spelled sentence together. A like button would be a good idea. Sometimes one can enjoy or appreciate a post or comment enough to merit quoting and commenting on it, but other times, one may just wish to give a 'nod,' so to speak, just a little recognition to show one's appreciation. A 'like' button is the perfect way to do this. Facebook is not the only website to utilize this function. I found your response rather short-tempered and mean-spirited. Shylass was merely showing her appreciation of the post. Your comment was somewhat snide and did nothing whatsoever to add to the discussion. I understand that it's fun to engage in witty banter, debate, disagreement, whatever... Your comment was just kinda mean.

So, would you prefer a long thread of people simply posting 'I Like This', one after the other?

I seriously can't understand why we should stick to just clicking like on a button when we can express our affection for a picture or a post with a long ass post to try to give people the illusion that not only do we know how to create a coherrant sentence, but we're also able to make it positive. I say we introduce a new rule to the forums. Unless the topic says so(like in the word games) every forum post must be at least 10 sentences long and each sentence must consist of a minimum of 5 words. I know I just broke that rule, but I'm a complete and utter idiot who really shouldn't be browsing the forums because I have nothing to contribute with other than mindless BS and my only intention is to belittle people so that not only do I put myself in a better light, but I also make myself feel better.... tl;dr - gief like button now, plox!

 The best thing you can do for your fellow,
next to rousing his conscience, is - not to give him things
to think about, but to wake things up that are in him...
to make him think things for himself - George MacDonald

 I FUCKING LOVE THIS Shylass wrote:I just saw this, or I would have replied sooner.
I would like a "Like" button because they already turned me down when I asked for a "I FUCKING LOVE THIS" button. I thought it was a happy compromise.
