Likes are destroying Boyah and must be disabled at once. I will expound my argument below.

Likes must remain enabled. They are in fact a necessary step in making Boyah more competitive with Facebook and its ilk.

Well yeah but that's all different. And you're still not overposting cute anecdotes from my childhood to my wall 😉

yes it is facebooky but i dont think they're inherently a negative thing. it's nice to give people props for a nice post if you have nothing to add to it. i also like that we can record stats on posts. lots of forums do it.

Daddy

liking is like upvoting but you can't downvote

change my mind

It's just kinda pointless and adds visual clutter

But if we keep it def change the icon to wrench; and change name from Like to Wrench

YPrrrr


Hiro

I can make a smaller, greyscale wrench icon to go with it

Kalahari Inkantation

it definitely needs to be tied to a restored doodthingocity that tracks likes

Samus Aran

quota needs to come back and then doodthingocity can be an equation based on quota and likes

Hiro

Nah doodthingocity was dumb
A total number of likes attributed to you would be alright, and quota should be like 600 a month

Daddy

quota should be the  highest number of posts by a particular user in the previous month
