Just speaking for myself, If I were into that Facebook kind of thing (which I am not) I would consider the "thumbs up" an acceptable substitute for a "like button". and if I really, really liked something, there's the dance & shout Smiley . Just one man's opinion.

I sorta get the single-click notion of a "LIKE" button because to enter a Smilie like takes 3 clicks:
1. Click on "Post Reply"
2. Click on "Thumbs Up" smilie
3. Click on "Submit"

Comments are considered one way of measuring the degree of ‘meaningfulness’ of individual posts and our forum overall. The general forum theory is that posts that attract more comments are more likely to resonate with a wider audience, as the comments indicate a higher degree of engagement on the part of the forum members. A "LIKE" button, while easier to use, would yield a lower degree of engagement which is the opposite of what AAPK is trying to accomplish.

Just my $0.02.

Yes, it has been brought up before. My opinion FWIW is in this old thread viewtopic.php?f=2&t=54240

Hasn’t changed, but I think JerryD nailed it best.

If there were a "like" button, you lazy bums would never post.

I like (not like the like button) the option to pick different smiles to show my likes and dislikes on a subject or item it seams more personal
