Only if it includes forced reply so you can say how you really feel in a quoted message.

If you want to show how much you dislike stuff simply do like I'm doing and quote the message with reasons you don't like it.

I don't like the idea of people being able to blindly click dislike without a reason. It would allow abuse of the dislike. Obviously, if someone can't articulate their reason for hitting dislike it shouldn't be available to them. It's counter productive if the reasons behind the dislike aren't explained by the person clicking it. :rolleyes:

Isn't not hitting the like button the same as showing how much a post is disliked?

SE already said no and it wsa a very emphadic no. 90% of the people on internet forums, particulary gaming forums are too immature to be able to handle the idea of a dislike button and it will lead to nothing more the greifing and/or groups of people ganging up on individuals for inane reasons that have nothing to do with the topic at hand.

No especially when it comes to the dev team responses that contain entirely retarded reasoning/adjustments, sure the dislike button could be abused but seriously? you're doing something wrong to garner the level of abuse required to make the dislike button a negative feature.

If more then anything i want it just as a "do not want" button every time the dev team decides they want to make my brain hurt.

just having a like option is misleading and sometimes ppl dont want to put in reason why which is why a dislike button works for me plus also they wont have to read a million posts of ppl bitching just check the amount of dislikes it gets

Like/dislike button are nothing but butthurt buttons, majority of players clicked them for no real logical reason.

If you like/dislike a post, reply it, write down how you truely feel in words, that's better communication than clicking dislike. I'd be against "like" button as well, as having like but no dislike is a bit unbalanced.

IDK Whats with the obsession to be negative. Dislike buttons serve no positive purpose, no matter how people may spin it, its a butthurt button, used nothing more than to hate on something without having to bother putting any effort into telling them why.

Best way to dislike something? Post a Response as to why. Pretty simple.

I see right now having "like", but no "dislike" button has a problem, that is if one person post something retarded(or if SE made a change nobody like), and another retard clicked "like", it'd convey mislead info that ppl liked retard opinion, even if 100000 players dislikes it and only 1 like.

Best way is to get rid of both like and dislike, so players can start conveying his/her opinion in words. It's not like having "liked" button serves any purpose. It can't really be some sort of survey for every players too.

Don't really care about adding a dislike button. Like mentioned before, I can see it being abused by certain groups ganging up on others.

It could maybe work if you had a limit on one dislike per day.

People like me would have way too much fun with a dislike button.

And that's why we can't have nice things!

in case you guys hadn't noticed you only get to hit like once per post cant abuse it. but hitting the dislike is me giving my opinion instead of a lengthy post of why.

plus it can eliminate most of the trolls around here by not giving them the option of insulting other people's posts

In case you didn't notice, people were saying "groups of people" could use it to mess with one person, which is a lot of dislikes added together.

You can Unlike Something.

Second, Generally how it works when only a Like Button Exists is that the First Response to Reject the OP With a reasonable manor is regarded as the "Dislike" Button in terms of likes. (I.E If the OP Has 3 Likes, and the guy who says "Ops tarded" Has 18, Its generally accepted 3 Likes / 18 Dislikes).

Also, I think the Like Button plays way more of a role than we think, Pretty sure its how they judge responses and ideas people want, and voting.

I am sure likes mean jack to SE in most cases.

(or if SE made a change nobody like)This right here is your only valid point and actualy, I can agree with it. We should get a dislike button, but only for MOD posts.

Pretty much this. It would be fun for one day, then groups who rarely post on here but otherwise tend to mock everyone in the media forum will come over and troll the living sh!t out of this place "for the lulz". They would then go about abusing it. Not to mention the sheer number of people here who would go around abusing it just cause.

No internet karma sucks, it only functions in a system where everyone is mature and behaves in a rational place. The internet has proven that it divides everyone's age by two and removed all rationality.

Very true. If you want proof of that jsut look at ffxiah. They used to have dislike buttons. Was nothing but abuse on them. And they had to remove the feature. I doubt it would be any diffrent here.

I LIKE!

Many more reasons why there's no "dislike" button- it's negativity and if a person can't simply ignore something they don't like, make a thread about it linking it to the 'other one' for argument sake. Or go cry in the corner.

I said its how they judge voting/responses, Doesn't mean they'll always respond and it doesn't mean it'll always be a yes. We get "No'd" A lot more than that.

They still have dislike in gear comment section, and very often those comment that makes sense got rated down, those doesn't make sense got rate up. What does it do except giving other players false info?

I absolutely understand where you're coming from, But you have to understand...

I think its precisely that mindset that causes us to see 99% of our dev responses to be translations from questions JP's ask instead of responses from what NA's ask. Their likes are in the 90~100+ ranges.

Until we can drop the butthurt act(Not you specifically) and stop accusing SE of not caring or our opinions not mattering, We'll never know. We can play the cynic and assume SE Doesn't give a d*mn about us since we aren't JP, or we can actually Like posts we agree with instead of quarreling like babies and asking for Dislike buttons.

This attitude is widespread on these here forums, If it doesn't stop, We'll never get any responses to our question because any good ideas are sitting at 20-30 Likes when the JP Equivalent is 100-200, If you were looking for the question most warranting an answer, Would you pick one with 1-5 Supporters, or 200+?

Its Simple logic really, If we actually draw a pattern, We'll see its not (only) their xenophobic nature, but because its a popularity contest of votes, and we here are stingy and greedy with liking.

If you like something, f**king like it, and I guarantee you we'll have less to complain about in the future as far as "They're ignoring NA!" go. If it doesn't matter, Whats it matter? You lost 2 seconds of your life maneuvering your mouse over the lick button and clicking it.... But if it DOES Matter, What do we serve to gain? (a Chance at no! but really... A response.)
