Mac of Cygnet Posted March 10, 2017 Report Share Posted March 10, 2017 Hey, you can give greenies then take them away again. I gave the last post a greenie, then Rusty went up to 33. Pressed the 'reddie', and he went down again (sorry, Rusty, nothing personal). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is, in my view, a retrograde step: from memory, we used to have this feature years ago (with green and red buttons) but the red one was abolished, so one could award only plus points, not minus points. Are you in favour of this new system? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob-M Posted March 10, 2017 Author Report Share Posted March 10, 2017 It would be useful if they were reinstated on posts so you can see if a post has been awarded a greenie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does that not temp others to automatically think I ought to give it a greenie as well? This way there is no chance you are influenced by either the lack of greenies or the number already given.

Possibly, but if someone has made a good post with sound technical judgement then it helps others to see who may not understand. Often on here people spout a load of carp as though they are the expert in a particular field when they aren't. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely the total reputation gives enough idea of whether the poster regularly posts sense or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mross Posted March 11, 2017 Report Share Posted March 11, 2017 Greenies and 'likes' are two different things. It would be nice to have the likes switched on again. These show on individual posts. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RichM Posted March 11, 2017 Report Share Posted March 11, 2017 It should now show the number of greenies awarded per post. Not sure why it disappeared. RichM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
