Like Feature for Posts

This is a very simple and straight forward idea that I think can help the forums.

What I am suggesting is an option to "Like" a post.

Example (Bottom Right Corner):

Have you ever seen a witty remark, or logical answer to an important question? But to show your appreciation, you have to clutter up the forum by posting a simple:
+1

A like feature would solve way more problems than that however.

---

Let me show you how it would work.

---

You see a good post, so you like it by clicking the icon.

Then it will register as a like and will show up as (+11). Simple and easy.

---

But it doesn't solve just that. There are many good suggestions out here on the forums, and not everyone who reads the suggestion actually /signs. The "Like" feature would ensure everyone who agrees with the suggestion would be counted, as long as they hit the button.

---

For the author of the post, there would be special features to make suggestions and other things easier, such as the ability to see who liked your post.

---

---

However, there should be an option to turn off the friend list icon to make the names easier to copy, for sign lists.

---

---

In addition, If a suggestion has over 200 likes, it would become a hot post, hence the crimson red color.

---

---

Important Rules

There is no Dislike button however. That's a whole different suggestion.

You can only like a post once per account.

Yes I know there are is already a suggestion for this. And I have gotten permission from the author of that suggestion to make my own.

F.A.Q.

---

Q:Why no dislike?
A:People could abuse it, I see no need for it.

Q:You ripped off Facebook!
A:A bit. But with that logic the LoL forums did too.

More Questions will be added as people ask them.

I'm glad you redid my idea

[TPangolin]

Well done. I'm pretty sure you shouldn't see the counter of likes however. It'd be better if it were a vague ranking system (as in Unhelpful to Awesome) based off of number of likes. Also not sure about the crimson red idea, I'm pretty sure you could just substitute a little symbol for that.

Anyway, I'll sign this

a bit FB-styled but i "like it"

[WilliamIsBack]

I don`t see the need for a "like" button. As this is no social media network there is no need for it.

True this isn't a social media network, but it can be useful in many other ways, such as keeping track of /signs on a suggestion post.
