Still doesn't for some reason

by zizzle Sat 24 Oct - 21:12:05

just in case you dont see it, its near the quote and multi quote boxes :G

by Casciavit Sat 24 Oct - 21:15:56

You can try logging out too, it'll show that somebody liked your post.

by Great Leader Sprucenuce Sat 24 Oct - 21:24:35

Reason you can't see it is because nobody liked your post imo.

by LeVersacci Sat 24 Oct - 21:34:17

you can see your own like? hmm

l4l pls

Welcome new feature. Great job RG for implementing it, zizzle for making this thread made and Mole for being an unfunny pleb whose jokes no one gets.

Ultimate deception

YEEEESSSS it's back :bow:

by McAgger Sun 25 Oct - 7:21:15

So how does one know if anyone liked their post?

It shows up once it's liked I think

That explains why I don't see it.

by McAgger Sun 25 Oct - 8:27:56

I just liked it, did it show up for you in the above post?

by Sri Sun 25 Oct - 8:28:41

Yes. And I liked your post. See?

Proud

by McAgger Sun 25 Oct - 9:02:45

I see, it makes sense.

For a second I thought people couldn't see their own likes (not that I expect to be getting a lot of likes Laughing

) , which would have made the whole system a bit redundant.

by RedOranje Sun 25 Oct - 20:16:58

McAgger and Sri already abusing the system. Evil or Very Mad

by Lucifer Sun 25 Oct - 20:48:10

Am rarely seeing someone liking the posts. High expectations or quality of posts on GL not good enough hmm

Sorry RedO, I was only helping demonstrate it. You will see that I have not abused it outside of this thread. Sad

by Hapless_Hans Mon 26 Oct - 21:35:52

Eh? I was just in a thread where there were no 'thumbs up' like button available, but a tiny '+' sign to the right of each post.

Just to try I clicked on one and then a new page showed 'your vote has been cast'? The + signs are now gone too.
What is this?

by Great Leader Sprucenuce Mon 26 Oct - 21:41:10

That's what the plus and minus symbol used to look like Laughing

No idea why it's suddenly appearing out of nowhere though, it's happening to me as well btw.

by M99 Mon 26 Oct - 23:42:41

Maybe something the admins are beta testing hmm

by Robespierre Tue 27 Oct - 21:47:14

but how can I know about positive votes received ?
I explain. I was on my Viewing profile to search my last messages posted and I noticed just now I got a positive vote received . But I didn't get the "notification" about it or I can't see it ( I suppose ) hmm

Now that our community close knit, we should get the post voting system back - Page 3 Untitl17

The old system was way better... It was noticeable.

by McLewis Thu 29 Oct - 21:42:39

What you guys noticed is intentional. Not seeing how many upvotes you've received encourages you to simply post your thoughts instead of posting in order to just get upvotes. We've had that system before on the old Lithium versions of the forum and it turned truly great posters into ego-obsessed morons who only cared about how much kudos they got instead of the substance of the post. Given how bright many of you are, I think we're better than that.
