The community should get to decide whether a like button should be implemented or not, and the majority are evidently in favour. There should be a 1 month trial, and after that there should be another poll deciding whether it should be kept or not. Simples!

Incorrect.

That poll includes votes from people who don't even have an account on this site, and their opinion must not count. But even then 51% have not voted 'yes' at the moment.

The same logic applies to people who have voted 'no'.

That does not disprove my disproval of the bolded.

No. If there is a "like" button we will get so much spam like facebook has. Hit like if you think..... my news feed is filled with that crap.

These posts would definitely be banned under anti-spamming rules.

Maybe then if this was enforced. Maybe a short trial should be used for a month. Then ask the question again.

This is perfect. What RedInker said was my only concern. I think a trail would be kind of nice

Been away for a bit, but sneaking back in.

There seems to be a small majority in favour of the like button so far.

It's still a bad idea Kantor. Let's keep some level of self respect and not have a like button.

Also even if it was a good idea it would never get done.

Why?

Have you noticed how long it's taken to get Graphs back? Or for this site to get its upgrade?

It would take a long time. We don't need to put anymore things on the gods of GamrConnect and VGC.

It would never be at the top of the priority list. I would put the Prediction League and VGC IM far above it.

Those too, I guess.

VGC IM was more of an IRC than an IM. There was a public chat room where there would always be 5 or 6 people hanging out and discussing things. You could also use it to send real time instant messages.

So like the FaceBook IM Thing? That would be a really nice thing to have as our PM's are quite slow and glitchy sometimes.
