Yeah I've though about this off and on.

I would only have a "Like" button. That way the poster gets some feedback that people liked his* post.

But then, if I posted something, and didn't get any "Likes", I would be depressed.

Maybe its better to not know if people like you post or not.

* I say "his" because there is a mayor lack of women on this forum. I guess because most of the members are 50 plus and reliving their interests from their youth, back in a time when most women just didn't take up electronics unfortunately. When I started my apprenticeship with Telecom in 1982, in our intake of 72 apprentices, 2 were girls. But I'm encouraged by the growth in young female "makers" getting into electronics and robotics these last few years.
