It's not. C3G Sanctum threads didn't have the like option either and it was just something funky about how it inherited features from its parent thread (the same thing that was stopping people from posting there). Pretty sure C3V was built on the same logic and is having the same issue. I'm not sure exactly how it was fixed, just that @japes fixed it.

I started over with each user group for C3G and just assigned permissions at every sub forum since I couldn't trust any inherit settings. It works for us since we give the same rights to everyone in a specific user group for C3G. So all C3G heroes have the same editing permissions for all the C3G area of the site for instance. Sidekicks can only edit their own posts except in the public side of C3G, etc. So I just individually set up each forum and sub forum for each group. Took a little time but it was worth it in the end I think.

One thing to watch will be the use of the "like" button. I'd have preferred a simple "like" option and nothing more. The internet has taught me that people will use other options sarcastically, or mean-spiritedly, given the chance.

We'll see.

Correct.

it's at least better than the private bullying that Neg rep causes. You at least have to be seen being mean-spirited. But yeah Like only also isn't the worst thing.
 
Fair enough. I only got dumped on one time with docks, back when I suggested that we prohibit political or religious messaging in signature blocks, and it just made me laugh. That, and it caused me to adopt this avatar. :)
 
I also had a case (before I even had the ability to neg rep) where someone thought that I had neg repped them and went off on my in PM. Because the Neg Rep was anonymous.

As an admin I was able to see a lot of the neg rep stuff and it was not always constructive to say the least.
 
A few people have tried that with me ("NB" comes to mind...).
All the same, while I acknowledge the problems with -rep, I still feel that the old +rep system ought to survive in a bigger form than just the generic "Like" emojis. Those personalized little bits of appreciation in my inbox always made my day-- them, and the tiny Order Markers I'd been gradually collecting as a result.

Well saying it sounds like a myth even though you've heard of it happening doesn't sound very validating. For the record.

Walt,

Are you not seeing the like button right next to the reply to a post? I just liked your post ti make sure it works.

It's there now, but I know it wasn't there earlier. This was my first post on the 2.0 forum, so maybe I had to post something first before that option showed up?

I hadn't actually considered this, but I would like to second it. Those personalized messages were always good to see. They also allowed people to expound on why they liked your post, which might not always be obvious.

If you read the posts in order you will see that nobody provided an actual account of the behavior until after I posted.

Please do not put words in my mouth, particularly when those words are unkind. Thank you.
 
You “long suspected” it was a myth before this conversation. That’s your own words, I didn’t put any words in your mouth. That means you’ve heard of it and dismissed it as a myth rather than validating that it happened. Again, just facts per your own words. Please don’t call me unkind when I’m trying to cultivate kindness and decry bullying.
 
Yes. I suspected it was a myth. That is what I said.

Then I stated that honest belief here and people corrected me, and I expressed sincere gratitude for their willingness to share.

Did I do something to you? Is it important to you that I wear a villain’s hat here?
 
I don’t want anyone to be a villain. That’s why I tried to explain what happened and how your words were hurtful, so you can avoid them in the future.
 
I guess for clarity the missing context is how you heard of it in the first place if it was not attached to any personal experience and why you thought it might be a myth?
 
I’ve said what I had to say. I was honest and I don’t choose to participate in this foolishness anymore. I thought something wasn’t real, like Stinger Denial, and I said so. I got evidence and I thanked people.

Judge me if you want. I didn’t ask for your advice here and I truly don’t want it.
 
So now me trying to stop bullying is foolishness? I don’t see how I can take anything you’re saying as positive at this point. It’s now transformed to being demeaning and I don’t appreciate this because it’s a serious topic in my opinion.
 
Eh. Probably best we move on. Had a chance to come to a better understanding with each other and it doesn't seem there's mutual interest in that chance, so along we go to other topics.
