Not planned Make LIKE more prominent

[Shanj]

I quickly started to forget to use the LIKE link and I do think it's a good feature.
So I think it should be a lot more prominent or it'll fade away - unlesws people use it quite a bit it isn't going to be useful.

I don't have any creative ideas on HOW to make it prominent - bigger and over on the left?

My ideal would be Like - reply - Report. That way people would be encouraged to Like more.

This is a discussion-board not a like-contest, so the focus should be on the reply and not on the "like"

You're right this whole topic is not about a Like contest. Never occurred to me.
Making Like more prominent is about being able to assess admin/ mod side if an item is catching attention.

Also for every member who uses Reply there are loads who don't - but who could use Like.

Hm, looks like it's been changed already. Liking it actually.

Oh YES that's neat.

I don't display the horrendous signatures anymore for my own viewing pleasure, but anyway... I think with Kier's improvements (here and here), ALSO this 'issue' with the like-link not prominent enough for some people (I myself didn't have a problem with it at all) is solved. Look... the 'like' link is not 'buried' anymore between 'Report' 'Like' 'Reply'. It is now all the way to the right, right next to the only other link there: 'Reply'. This gives the 'Like' automatically a more prominent place.

The re-ordering of the links solved also this 'issue', IMHO.

After thinking about it for another day, I completely agree with you.

I do believe we are done.

At least I hope we are...

I would like it to be more like on youtube (good/bad reply).
