Dislike button

[Afania]

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.

add a dislike button so we can show you how we truly feel

Shame I can't dislike this post

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.

Your full of it, go look at the uncapping merit thread with over 100 likes, or the thread about a storage slip for non-augmented +2 relic gear with over 125 likes. 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.

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.

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.
