Give Players a Dislike button

Introducing a dislike button on forums can have several potential benefits:

  1. Balanced Feedback: It allows users to express disagreement or dissatisfaction, providing a more balanced view of opinions on a post or comment.
  2. Content Quality: It can help identify low-quality or unhelpful content, encouraging users to post more thoughtful and constructive contributions.
  3. Engagement: It increases user engagement by giving them another way to interact with content, beyond just liking or commenting.
  4. Transparency: It provides a clearer picture of community sentiment, helping moderators and administrators understand the community’s views better.

I think the ratio of dislikes / likes many posts will have would be quite hilarious

And to use the dislike button… you can only post on your highest iLevel character. And it will show your character as someone who disliked. And when you click on someone who disliked it shows all their alts as well.

Great idea!

give people more of a even voice instead of just ignoring the post and only seeing the likes

This would help people see how much GDKPs are disliked vs liked it can act as a poll persay

Nah. Any site with “dislikes”, they get abused to bully people with unpopular opinions.

Above post is Disliked

Observations on forums seem to vary. I am quite sure that bullying is already present. The introduction of a dislike button may not necessarily cause additional harm; in fact, it could be beneficial. It might lead to people simply hitting dislike instead of replying, potentially making the experience more pleasant.

Wowhead has a dislike feature and its doing fine!!!

Which is why we’ll never get it.

Or you just need a minimum of Trust Level 1 to access dislikes.

And yet, Reddit still exists and millions of nerd-elfs use it.
But yeah, that’s in part why the Devs hide on XTwitter.

We live in a body type 1/2 world. Can’t risk anyone having their feelings hurt or feel not accepted.

A dislike button is unlikely to hurt anyone’s feelings more than typed words already do.

However, there are more than two body types; there’s the fit body, dad bod, gamer bod, alcoholic bod, and even the alcoholic gamer dad bod, among others.

i dislike this idea

That’s your opinion, and you’re entitled to it. Now if there were a button, you wouldn’t have to type it out; you could simply click it to express your opinion.

And also make it to where they will show 100% of EVERY toon you have ever posted on ever when you post on any toon. Other game forums do that. Why cant this one? I say who my other posting toons are when I switch and I try to only post using the toon that I am currently playing the most.

They should make it to where you can only like a post one time per bnet account as well. It would be funny to see how many of these anti shammy posts in SoD are from the same person. I bet it is like 4 or 5 people making these posts from multiple toons . I notice matching speech patterns and similar posting times on some of them.

They are probably just mad at everyone here because someone took the name Elrond so they had to settle for that.

Trust Level 1? Heck no.

You have to pull back the curtains on all that you are to use dislike. No hiding :slight_smile:
