Sometimes the like button is good because if the post is directed at you, you can like it to let the poster know you have read it and agree without adding extra clutter to the conversation.

I'm with Mighty Mouse on this one, I'd prefer it stay.

ditto, you don't need to type an acknowledgment to like or agree with something.

I'm on another locksmith forum which has introduced a series of likes.

The reason being people weren't posting but they now have a series of emoticons/characters to select which better represents their thoughts on the posts.

They are now getting used which indicates people are reading the posts.

The choices are in order of the attached pic
Good post, agree, loveit, disagree, funny, sad, winner, informative, dislike, useful, optimistic & creative.

NB: I don't agree with them all but we are seeing results of members who otherwise may not post.

Nice idea.
The thing I like about it, is it doesn't clutter up people's build threads, for example, when you want to acknowledge something cool, but have nothing constructive to add.

Ok some good arguements there which show some usage of the LIKE that I hadn't considered.

The troubling fact thought is that post numbers have declined considerably since putting it up 2 years ago. I know this can also be attributed to the multitude of FB Pages people are creating, making essentially micro Jeep communities.
