<p>[QUOTE="Kasia, post: 1413238, member: 31533"]Then I suggest you train your brain to ignore the " (heart) (so and so) and (someone else) like this" when you see it. Because I don't see too many people wasting their time to explain to you and others who see agreement in every like why they liked a post or what about it they agreed with or anything else. If you expect others to do that on a regular basis because you read things into it, then I think you are wasting your time. But it's your time to waste. Everyone wastes time, it's what they choose to waste it on that differs.</p><p><br /></p><p>But your statement about the problem with the like button being visible and you evidently wanting it not visible or something is you are putting your expectations on the masses to conform to your own interpretation. I won't get into politics or religion here (although some cases from those arenas would totally fit into being analogous as to why we and others shouldn't buy into one person's opinion when that person wants to change things to fit their beliefs, mainly because it infringes on the other person's ability to use something as they see fit), but basically I'm saying that just because you have your opinion on the usefulness of this like button and it's apparent inability to conform to your ideal standard of how it should be used, so that you and others can infer a clone mentality of two like-minded individuals, doesn't mean that it should be made invisible to all but the user and the person whose post was liked. Basically, I'm taking away that you want people to stop using the like button unless they are agreeing completely with that post as well as all posts from that person leading up to the post that was liked, so there is clarity as to why a post is liked by a person. With the corollary that if someone doesn't completely agree, as stated by me just now, then to not use the like, but instead write words and sentences outlining what about a post they agree with, and where their ideas diverge. All for the sake of clarity for one or a few people who seem to need this in a public forum. I think that's an insane idea, and you will be better off either starting your own forum where you can write and apply all the rules you like, or as I said at the beginning of this long and tedious post, to just ignore when someone likes something.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
