Question

can we bring back the “dislike” button?

this is a question for real (not volunteer) mods (no offense), we need the dislike button back, too much noise and bullshit on the forum these days, we are grown ups and do not need to be shielded from having our feelings hurt nor are we so intellectually stunted that we cannot handle being given the option to “like” or “dislike” a post, 

i feel that this is pretty insulting to ones intelligence and creates an “anything goes” atmosphere with no repercussions for beingn annoying or posting dumb shit

    The problem is that people will miss use it. We had people going back to past post and just click dislike on anything someone said if they didn't like that person. We even had strange bots doing the same. Even then - it had no real value to the system making it almost pointless to have around either way. So we got rid of it and didn't look back. A more positive option was chosen instead and so far has work really well.

    Unless you can come up with a GOOD reason to bring it back - it simply will not.
