would be a good idea - i often read the posts but don't comment so a like (or not) would be a good idea

Sometimes, I feel that I don't have anything to add to a thread but have enjoyed reading the posts, so it sounds like a good idea, Temps.

Could be an interesting idea. Temps, you may want to post this on the Community Technical Questions/Suggestions forum so that Seattle see this.

You see, Machel and Yogi...I could now like your posts showing you I've read them, so you wuoldn't think I was rude by just replying to El Loro

I shall go hunt down Technical Suggestions El Loro, thank you.  *ties rope to the thread in case I get lost*

Great idea Temps 

I'm contaminated by FB because when I read a post I like - I keep trying to like it 

me too Candi

This was inspired by me yesterday wasnt it? lol In the ugg thread where you wanted to 'like' my post?

haahaa okay okay get the light outta my eyes, it's true, it's true!

now sshh we have to be all serious, I linked this in the Techy Suggestion Part and I want them to think I'm dead clever so they follow through with my suggestion

And I could "like" your post, and then you'd know that I know that you aren't being rude.

Teehehe

That would be a good idea as I also read but dont comment in every thread

pmsl Jen   *ahem*  Seattle folk, if you're reading 'teeheehee' is an English expression of interest and maturity.  Translation:  Jolly well said

*Likes yogi and Marge's posts*

Is this why my daughter uses the word 'like' about ten times per sentence? 

"I say, Temps, jolly good show wot!" said in an upper class twit sort of voice

well like, it's like this like - that could prolly like, be the reason for it like - do you like my explanation like???? 


*runs* ----------------------------------------------> 

Rather spiffing isn't it Sir Loro *hopes Loro is male *

oh feck Blizzie I just burst out laughing in the middle of the office

 They must all know you're a loony, by now! 

Noooo sssshh....I'm the smart intelligent one with the good ideas that they all listen to coz they know it makes sense

Merry Christmas everyone

hopes so too

Toodle pip

I think that it's a great idea

Noooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ugg stands for ugly karma

*also runs*

I never used to like them. But I was converted AND YOU WILL BE TOO

same here karma

I 'like' this post

i think it would be a great idea, i read a lot of the threads but don't always have something to add as mostly someone else has already said it but would love to 'like' it!

think its a briliant idea

If you like a thread then post, if you dont then look for another.

If I read a thread and like it but cannot think of anything to reply then I always "Rate It"

Woohoo - we could do the green arrow/red arrow thing like on the Daily wail

That's a good idea.
Plus our avi's/names recorded too so that the OP knows who's 'liking' (or disliking) them.

Yes cos that would no way cause any traumas or arguments

I'm from the publish and be damned squad.

I was really just being specific to posts in a thread.  There are some replies you read, but they're kind of a full stop in a convo or supporting what you've already said, so instead of having to reply to every post you can just 'like' it or 'thank' it, so the person doesn't think they've gone to all the effort of replying and no one read their post.  It works well on another forum I'm on, so just thought it might be worth considering here.

I like the idea of the "like" option but if it doesn't bump the thread back up then I'm not sure it will catch on.

Does anyone take any notice of the star rating system on here?

Temps, I know I suggested that you posted something in the suggestions forum which you did.

I have another suggestion. If you log on to the Livecloud site, and click on Get Help which is right at the bottom of the page, you will get to the Social Strata Support forum. If you click on Post (top right hand corner) you will be able to create your suggestion there. You will be familiar with the screen. The extra things are that you need to select which category your post is, which I guess will be suggestion. You will also need to select whether it refers to Hoop la, and a couple of others - you select Hoop la. You will need to give a full description, not just link it to this thread.

You have a fair chance of getting it noticed by Seattle. Also once you've done it, it is worth putting a link on this thread and suggesting to people that they click on the link and vote on the idea, as the more people who vote, the better the chances are of it getting implemented,

to be honest Cracking, I haven't even noticed the rating system   But I'll definitely keep an eye out now.  I can see your point about bumping the thread, we might get lazy and just like opening posts without actually posting in them   But overall it might be worth looking at.

El Loro, are our Livecloud memberships the same as here?  I just tried logging in with the same log in details as here and it's telling me I don't exist

Actually no wait, I can sign in to livecloud but not to Social Strata
