"Reaction score"?


Something there is that doesn't love a .. euphemism,
pace, Robert Frost.

I shall now approach the porcelain throne, and make a politician.

If the only potential reactions are indifference or approval, what
does reaction score mean? And, if it has any meaning at all, why not
keep it visible? The pulitikull keerectitude is ear-shattering, as well as
less than enlightening, or visible.

I'm thinking IF we had "dislike" buttons and both "like" and "dislike" went into "reaction score", I could double my "reaction score" in about a week.

@DefenseBB , did you feel it before the blade hit you in the heart?

Actually, didn’t really do much to me. If Bama’s feelings were truly hurt, he would reach out to me on the private chat and express that concern.
If we can’t have some fun on this chat or any chat than what’s the point of any forum? They are entertainment only tools, not solving world problems.
I did learn that Eddie does live in Alabama, just a different location than I originally suspected. His influence evidently does reach from Montgomery to Helena, some 73 miles.

Unless a like earned you a point but a dislike took one away from you.

Yea I was thinking about that. I'd probably end up negative after awhile.

I couldn't agree more. I too was only having some fun. I hope you didn't take it seriously? If so sincerest apologies.

Good eyes seeing the on-line feature. Impressive.

We had that before so it’s not new, just a new shape

Your post reminds me of Newton's Third Law, "for every reaction (like), there is an equal and opposite reaction (dislike). I take it to please Mr Newton we should have a "dislike" button.

When and why did "Likes received" become "reactions received"?

About the same time that likes became a reaction. Confusing I know.

I like the reaction this post is receiving.
