chilihead Posted March 29, 2015 Posted March 29, 2015 Has anyone gone to like a PM? And realized, "Oh, this is a PM not a post."I have, and I just wondered if it would be a good feature. It wouldn't count as public Likes but would send a notification.A lot of times the conversation has ended but you want to "Like" what they said instead of replying "got it, okay, cool..." whatever.Just a thought.
chilihead Posted March 29, 2015 Author Posted March 29, 2015 After all, a PM is a private post. Could be useful for group messages as well. Instead of a flood of replies, Likes. Could be useful when you send an idea to a group.But also sometimes members/admins don't have time to reply or don't necessarily want to engage."Thanks for the message admin, I won't do that anymore."(Like)Probably not the best suggestion. Was just a thought.
ram108 Posted March 30, 2015 Posted March 30, 2015 It is a Facebook disease to "like" everything. But I like the idea to "like" instead of say "thanks", "ok", "agree" and so on. Missing "like" in PM too.
Marcher Technologies Posted March 30, 2015 Posted March 30, 2015 Wouldn't such a thing be ripe for exploitation? It is a private message, 2 users could bump each other's reputation value without end without the admin or any moderators even being aware of it..

It is a private message, 2 users could bump each other's reputation value without end without the admin or any moderators even being aware of it..I do like the idea of seeing what kind of PM's are out there... would be nice to see this built in instead of having a 3rd party mod installed.
Hexsplosions Posted March 30, 2015 Posted March 30, 2015 Even on Facebook I don't think you can like private messages. It's a conversation, not a status update.I'd want a way to disable it if it made it in.
