We need a "No thanks" button

[TLV]

Yes, it could be abused. But no more than the thanks system that is currently in place could.

[pimpstrocity]

nah, it would help polarize people even more after people/groups with issues with eachother would try to thank eachother up AND thank others down

not hitting "thanks" is enough of a no thanks imo

[Drusus]

Abolish thanks now.

[Chris Hansen]

Yeah. If you don't think what the person has to say is contructive we don't need to 'no thank' them. It would get abused

"It'll get abused" is the response to any and every suggestion made on this site.

Yeah because it's true.

I've suggested this three times alread...

Zok should replace the thanks with a no thanks. It would be a much better fit for this bbs anyway

no, a no thanks function would be abused even more cause if you dont like a particular poster you'd just give him the thumbs down on a bunch of shit

I'll do it oldschool...


NO THANKS!

Uh, ok. That's the equal / opposite of what happens right now. ... ???

I don't give a fuck about "abuse potential". This forum is a cesspool of retards. You kinda just proved my point.

Yup. Also it would effectively turn thanks into rep.

Everything has potential for abuse. That doesn't mean such potential is a good reason to not add a certain feature.

Use your words people. If you don't agree with a post, pressing a button doesn't further the conversation. If you want a conversational forum, then a "No Thanks" button will only detract from it.
