Say No to the "like" button.
I know we'll never see this feature added/implemented here but for some reason I still feel like speaking on it. The "Like" button is just a name, a rose by any other name kinda thing Some sites call it "Like", some sites call it a "Credit" button, some call it "reputation", heck some sites even call it a "Brains" button but the point is that it can help reduce clutter and help people find answers quicker. If they are scrolling through a thread on a topic they are researching and see a specific post that has a bunch of credit or reputation, that may help them find an answer quicker. If implemented via the "Reputation" route, it would also help newer people to pin down the members that are knowledgeable by a high reputation rating. I agree, stay away from Facebook for this site but this feature wouldn't be a bad one to think about
