Let's not sugarcoat everything. Its time for the "Dislike" button!

Hay. We're a harsh community, lets face it. It's a harsh game. It's also, I feel, a cutting edge game in many ways... so I think it would be appropriate for CCP to do what zuckerberg is too timid to do: Lets break out the "dislike" button. Hell, it'm fine with just introducing it on a trial basis just to see what happens... but "likes" are pointless without "dislikes" just as there could be no light were there not dark for contrast.

Who's on board?

Counter proposal: Add a dislike button and remove the like button.... Let there be only hate !Twisted

I'm onboard if Likes and Dislikes are made Contractable, as I'll need a way to unload the hate for bad jokes, etc. They should be a part of the market like just about everything else.

Just think of all the business Lyris could be doing.

It would quickly become a badge of honor similar to -10 sec status.

Well... we could use the "report" button as a dislike button.

If you're going to have a voting system you've got to have one for negative opinions about an issue too otherwise it isn't a Democracy, plus I want to know where my dislikes are coming from as with likes so that I can see how many 0.0 players I'm pissing off with my ideas.

Everybody would have a thousand dislikes. Users wouldn't even read the post, they would just scroll through each thread and dislike everything.

Just remove the stupid "likes" and put in a valid polling system.

Bounties for all! https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts&m=2279821#post2279821

Polling systems are even worse than the like/dislike system, particularly with how you'll get different responses depending on the wording you use.

Considering theres a script for the ability to mass LIKE something, Im sure thered also be a script able to mass UNLIKE something.

Considering this is the internet, the place trolls live and breed, do you REALLY for a second think it wouldnt be abused for the TROLOLOLOLOLs?Roll

Have you heard anything I've said?

You said it's all circling the drain, the whole universe. Right?

That's right.

Had to end sometime.
