Asset Posted October 25, 2012 Author Share Posted October 25, 2012 well, I was going to suggest that also, I'd get a few. As the learned PRose says, perhaps better in the About the Forum section.Please excuse me for being so remiss.

Mick Mac Posted October 25, 2012 Share Posted October 25, 2012 Asset. I suggested something like this a long time ago. BBW was controversial and whilst a lot of people loved his edgy comedy, there was no way to show if you liked it but of course he was controversial so the "report this post" option was available for the people who didn't like him but nothing was available for those who did. As a result he got lots of reports and got banned, there were no likes. I'm sure the likes would have outnumbered the reports so I suggested it then.I know SJ would approve.

Huguenot Posted October 26, 2012 Share Posted October 26, 2012 What about a 'polarise' option?I think about 40% of what BBW did was edgy comedy, the rest was boring vitriol. He wasn't the brightest card in the pack and he could be very unpleasant.I suspect that he was actually banned for being monotonously cynical. Since most people would argue that was insufficient reason, then a WMD argument was constructed around it.Having said that I'm sure I'm on thin ice myself, and people in glasshouses etc. Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/26385-i-think-we-should-have-a-like-option-on-posts/#findComment-587395 Share on other sites More sharing options...

El Pibe Posted October 26, 2012 Share Posted October 26, 2012 It was BBW's humour that got him a long stay of execution several times and meant he was indulged with many alter egos against the rules.He'd always blow it though and come out with something utterly offensive, he just couldn't help himself.*the above text is held on a moderator access online dropbox for fucking tediously repetitious easy reproduction.Let it lie for god's sake.

Mick Mac Posted October 26, 2012 Share Posted October 26, 2012 Hugs - I think he was ultimatley banned for something that actually made everyone feel a bit sick, so he had to go. The point is that when you have someone who is close to the egde, the objectors win every time, there is no option to show support, so I second Asset's suggestion.

StraferJack Posted October 26, 2012 Share Posted October 26, 2012 Have all the likes in the world for someone like that if you want- they are still going to get banned. Admin might try and explain the root causes but without being party to the source you are still "liking" something without knowing all the factsAs for "like" buttons, aspiring to be ANYthing like facebook these days? ick Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/26385-i-think-we-should-have-a-like-option-on-posts/#findComment-587434 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Otta Posted October 26, 2012 Share Posted October 26, 2012 FB has it's faults, no doubt.How anyone who loves twitter or any other social networking can slate FB makes me laugh though.

*Bob* Posted October 26, 2012 Share Posted October 26, 2012 Advertising and pointless apps aside (both of which are easy to ignore) - the content on Facebook is provided by 'you' and your 'friends'. So if you find Facebook boring and tedious, you know where to point the finger.

You> won't convince me that one is any better than> another.FaceBook and Twitter are two Completely different enterties with very little in common with their usage. People make connections on Facebook with friends, family members, and other people that they care to keep in touch with.You will probably know most of the people you associate with.Twitter is less about social friendships. Twitter allows people to follow important topics, people, and conversations that are relevant or interesting to them. It's a much more detached connection.You will probably not know or ever meet most of the people you follow or reply to.Fox.

Otta Posted October 26, 2012 Share Posted October 26, 2012 Fox, lots of people use twitter as you describe, but lots don't.Either way, I think getting snobby about one of them is a bit rich if you use the other.I am a regular FB user. I ignore every invite to play games, or join stupid tabloidesque causes, but I enjoy lots of other stuff.

El Pibe Posted October 26, 2012 Share Posted October 26, 2012 In all fairness bob is right, there's a tendency among most facebook users to accept all friend requests in order not to look rude, even if they're simply old colleagues, people at school you never even talked to then or that bloke down the pub with a wooden leg.I did a bit of a cull but most of them refriendrequested? (meaning of course I HAD offended them in so doing).The strealthy way of doing it is to edit the updates you're interested in from that person. I'm now untroubled by all those awful mawkish pictures of babies with freakish ailments or youtube clips of music I don't like (same can't be said of those damn corporate likes ads though).Weirdly enough some of those people I didn't like at school have turned out to be really interesting grown ups, and I'm sure there are plenty of them who have muted my incessant bleating about the fluff from my navel.Of course with the ignore button gone on here you lot are screwed....mwa hah ha haHAAHAHAHAH Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/26385-i-think-we-should-have-a-like-option-on-posts/#findComment-587456 Share on other sites More sharing options...
