<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Eduard, post: 2641482, member: 8959&quot;]<font size="4">What ro expresses is a very human reaction - we all like to be given a little pat in the back from people who share our passion for coins as recognition for our latest addition, or for sharing some knowledge, or some nice story.&nbsp; It is just human nature to feel that way. </font></p><p><font size="4">He did show us yesterday a very rare dupondius of Augustus of which apparently only a&nbsp; few are known. Heck, I would love to have that coin, and would be proud to own it too.</font></p><p><font size="4"><br /></font></p><p><font size="4">I remember a little after I joined in 2007 a similar system to rate posts was put in place here at C.T.&nbsp; I do not remember exactly what it was, but it was also some kind of a feedback system. Then, a few years later, maybe 2010 or 2011 this feature was eliminated, and some people who had a few thousand of these &#039;likes&#039; or whatever they were back then were not happy that the feature was removed. I myself had also quite a few of these &#039;likes&#039; , and after the format was updated, was back to 0. </font></p><p><font size="4">To be honest, I thought at the time that was a little hard, specially since back then I used to post more stories around the history of coins and related events, some of which required a bit of research and time. Maybe some of the members remember this system back then, and please correct me If my memory does not serve me right.</font></p><p><font size="4"><br /></font></p><p><font size="4">My own feeling nowadays about the &#039;likes&#039; is that yes, they are nice to have, but are possibly a bit overrated. As many of you have mentioned one may give or not give a &#039;like&#039; for any number of reasons, not all of which are related to the actual (numismatics) aspect of what we are posting. That is also human. </font></p><p><font size="4"><br /></font></p><p><font size="4">I personally value the discussions in the forum, and the sharing of knowledge much more. </font></p><p><font size="4">But that is just me. To each his own.</font></p><p><font size="4"><br /></font></p><p><font size="4">Having said all that, can I please have a &#039;like&#039;<img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> ? </font></p><p><font size="4">&nbsp;</font>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
