gmanbat 5,889 Posted September 10, 2013 The "like" button here means more than like to me. When someone is relating a problem it means empathy not that I like that they are having a problem. When they are having a battle it means support. When they have a victory it means applause. When they make a good point I am saying, "Here,Here!" When they tell a funny I am chuckling along. I would guess that you feel and think things that I have not mentioned when you hit the button. Having a row of more specific buttons would present problems with the reputation point system. At the risk of being misunderstood, I still like the "like". 22 FeeIsMe2, SDH, AngiD and 19 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AmandaRaeLeo 2,146 Posted September 10, 2013 I agree. I take the "like" option as an opportunity for a show of solidarity. 4 gmanbat, ProudGrammy, Ms skinniness and 1 other reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ms skinniness 3,003 Posted September 10, 2013 I wish they had a "you made me laugh" option. Some things are so funny and I have an instant urge to click on that option. LOL 2 gmanbat and ProudGrammy reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ProudGrammy 8,322 Posted September 10, 2013 The "like" button gmanbat interesting thought I "like" the fact that you are always here with your good advice and humor and support so.........i like to push your button empathy and solidarity how true!!! the laugh option...... hmmmmm.....sometimes i might be ROFLA - i can't reach the button i do "like" to push the "approval" button alot because i do think a post/reply is good i think most of us are pretty smart "cookies" with helpful comments/info/support but, its nice when someone acknowledges you and they (the poster) feel they are being listened to i like to respond to many, many posts (except MsSkinniness ) ooooops , please don't tell her i luv ALL you sleevers (unless i don't)LOL this board has always been so good to me luv ya alllll kathy 3 Ms skinniness, gmanbat and Recycled reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
