Hi guys. This forum comes with a 'like' button already installed. I'm looking for some feedback on whether you want a 'Dislike' button too, or if you want the like button disabled so we have no like/dislike system?
Edit: Ok, so dislikes are public as well as likes being public. How do you guys feel about this? Are we keeping the dislike button?
Edit again: I've just realised (when I was looking to see if there was something else on the mobile version) that the dislike button doesn't show for mobile users. It's unfortunate but some plugins don't work on the mobile version, this seems to be one of them. So if you want to use the dislike button you will have to use the desktop version.
The forum hosters will be updating the forums at some point in the future that should make it a lot better for mobile users.

Is it possible to make both the up and down votes on a post public? Basically I think the issue with down voting was people abusing it because of a lack of oversight.

This By this do you mean make it show who up and downvoted? I would like that. Maybe less downvotes because of a simple disagreement would happen with that system.

I think with the closed nature and self/ community moderation accountability is key. If you downvote you should have a reasonable, articulate reason for doing so.

I guess I am the only one who's against negative votes.

Likes and dislikes are a good system if used as intended. If they're included, definitely make them public. Otherwise, too many people use the dislike button as an "I disagree" button.

Can I also request a "fuck you" or "go fuck yourself" button?
So many times ive wished there was a go fuck yourself button or at least a middle finger emoji. I should add the middle finger emoji to my butt sex emoji idea
I'm for up and down votes and also for them to be public as to who voted which way

Well the like button is public, infact you get a notification if someone likes your post. I don't know about the dislike as we have not added it yet. I can only assume it would be public too, but I'm not 100% on that.

You need to have a downvote option. However, I'm also about transparency. Perhaps it can be set up so you can see who has both up and downvoted a post?
I use the upvote and downvote buttons to express whether I agree or disagree with a post. Not whether I do or don't like someone. Sometimes I don't feel the need to express in written form that I disagree...largely because I don't want to derail the topic. Now, if someone can see that I disagreed, and they want to ask me to elaborate, then I'd generally be more than happy to.

I don't care. One without the other is meaningless so we need to have both or neither.

I'm about to go to sleep so I can't do it now, but tomorrow I'll install the dislike button and use our 'test' account to see if dislikes are shown. I know likes are because you get a notification and everything lol
