did i miss these before, or are they new? Do we like this feature? to me the icons are a bit of a distraction to the eye, and while it is validating that Blairbob liked my comment, i don't reallllly need to know that.

I totally agree on the way it looks. Working with a programmer in the next week or so on editing the original plugin to look a bit more pleasing.

BTW we added this feature because some people were asking for it. If the majority don't like it, we can make it go away.

It would be useful if the like/dislike functionality actually did something, like ban you automatically if you rack up enough dislikes or award badges if you get a certain amount of likes. Then again, this could add a layer of cliquishness and competitiveness than could quickly get unreasonable and immature. I personally kind of liked how this forum was not like BB.com.

I think it gives more credibility to users who are genuinely helpful. Weightlifting is a different beast, so our community by default is a lot better than bb.com.

But again, we'll see how it goes.

I like the idea, personally. However, I do agree that presentation needs to be improved a bit.
