The 'like' button

Featured Replies

it has nothing to do with personal ego stroking

it is simply a tool that works well across basically all forms of social media

bring it back

 

I must admit that, I too, liked liking things without actually having to go to the trouble of posting that I liked or agreed with the things I liked, or agreed with - and having a like button also stopped the risk of ending a sentence with a preposition. And of writing long sentences. And of starting sentences with and.

As C&B said (and I quote) - bring it back.

 

I think , like, we cant, in all good conscience in this day and age impose our collective wills on a button. It needs to find its own sense of fit and how it can better server the greater humanity, i mean, like it should develop its own persona.... peace out :)

SOmetimes you really know how to push my buttons-in a manly way of course!

I think a Dislike button would cause more problems than the Like button did.

I reckon "Agree / Disagree / LoL " would work best.

So you can contribute to a debate by agreeing or disagreeing with a post, or tag with "LoL" for things that tickle your funny bone.

I agree that a "dislike" button may cause problems, but you can respectfully "disagree" with a point in an argument without "disliking" it or offending the poster.

I hope that made sense.

I instinctively went to like this post...

Get on it Demonland!

I am not sure I understand all this discussion just for a 'like' option. Its old hat, once farcebook had it, it was doomed.

Just prior to a certain coach getting the bullet, he investigated my KPIs on my likes.

Its seems my contested KPIs were down, my KPI to push forward regardless was on the up

And he insisted to ignore the scoreborad and spelling mistakes were acceptable. when the like option was removed he said he didnt see that coming.

Now seeing the like button isnt here, and its overused and outdated anyway ,and so far no outrages have occurred since its removal all roads suggest so far the culprit has been uncovered. of course I blame Jack watts, but Nasher knows best.

get used to not having a like button, its gone, a better method is under consideration for its replacement.

If you like a post this will be the way to go :)

We may not hear about them, but I'll bet they exist both for individual players and the team as a whole.

This is a post that I would have given a like too because I hate KPI's and all they stand or don't stand for.

I reckon we should have a 'Gold' button. Could be used to praise a genuinely funny post or a rip snorter of a reply or to comment on an unintentionally funny or hugely ironic post.

The only KPI I am interested in is the one after the final siren that says we scored more than the opposition!

As demon supporters few of us are familiar with that particular KPI.

It will come back, but in terms of timeliness - with the number of evenings I've had to spend putting the site back together in recent weeks due to disasters, you'd be amazed at how low my care factor is for non-urgent issues at present. I will get there.

nahh....can pretty well imagine !! :rolleyes:

As much as I like the 'like' button I quite understand your priorities. Those of us who have too much time on our hands and are commenting from the cheap seats (just to re-ignite an unnecessary debate) should make the point that we appreciate everything you do to keep the site running. Hopefully, a few posters will read this and intuitively move their cursor to the 'like' button position and give a theoretical click.


Anyone else see the irony....... We couldn't like Nashers post lol

Yeah, he got peeved cause nobody was hitting the 'like button' on his posts. Further more whats all this about a care factor?

tell me we care, he luvs pulling it apart, the 'like' thingy was just an excuse to dismantle the code. It happens in the off season he gets bored and thinks we wont notice. So Array to Nasher, It keeps him off the streets.

Yep and we could have a " disregarded " button to show that we have bannished anybody elses right to their opion to oblivion.

Are you still recieving me dustbin ?

 

I'm going to be honest here. This site is significantly less fun without the like button. I'm ashamed to admit it, but I like the point-scoring it encourages. I wish all of life we like that. It would be nice.

chook chook chook

theres no place for reality or such here.

as Daryl would suggest..........the van for you :)

  • REPORT: St. Kilda

    When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

  • CASEY: Sandringham

    The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
    Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

    The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.

    It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?
