    Hi
    I appreciate your website and i would share my idea that i found very fun on an other website "Racedepartment"
    It is about the button at the end of the thread / post : "no.1" , " like" , "reply" it could be usefull and fun to have those function too :
    [​IMG]"agree" , "desagree" , " like " , " unlike" , " funny" and so on and similar !
    thanks
    Eric

    Not a bad suggestion.
    Place a feature marker (Prefix) in title, "Feature Request"
    Not sure if WordPress can give us those.

    I would vote against any negative buttons like "unlike".

    There is a nice addon which can handle exact the features you requested:
    http://xenforo.com/community/resources/post-ratings-taking-likes-to-the-next-level.410/

    Unfortunately it costs 20 GBP and my budget for this month is empty:rolleyes: (Christmas presents for the three kids of my sister has been very expensive this year):blush
    All in all i think its a very useful addon which can help to improve the quality of some postings as the reputation of a author is increased proportional with the quality of his content and a reputation bar for good and less good content is shown below the avatar.

    Our community is one of the most friendly communities i know (Exceptions prove the rules) so i dont think that simple questions by newbies got a "dislike". We could test several options or open a poll to see which ones are useful and should be enabled.

    Hey Fellas,

    if you like to help out with some bucks please use the paypal address hermenau@x-simulator.de. If you do not worry about it, i will mention your username publicly for appreciation:cheers
    (If you do not want that, send me a short pm)
    When 75% of the needed amount has been reached i will give the rest of my own pockets, purchase and install the plugin for us than.

    Thank you guys

    So far so good – and I really find it great that the community has supported this so quick – and I don't wan't to moan big time – but just a small point:

    WHERE'S THE NUKE BUTTON?
