Guest eightbrick Posted August 29, 2013 Share Posted August 29, 2013 Eating copious amounts of canned meat with all of your best pals, right? Although I feel like you shouldn't get in trouble for that... LOL. I think that is enough to warrant a like. Anyway... will people will also earn reputation/like points for completed transactions on the Classifieds? Sort of like eBay feedback?

Darth_Raichu Posted August 30, 2013 Share Posted August 30, 2013 Basically we are really looking for people to "like" quality posts. Stuff that makes a difference on the forum, posts that bring new life to a thread, really great points. Hitting the "like" button for generic posts from forum buddies will be considered spam (especially if used too much) So is it just me or the new feature prevents people from seeing how many likes a post receives ?

TheOrcKing Posted August 31, 2013 Share Posted August 31, 2013 Can anyone else view the embedded videos today? All I am getting since some hours earlier today is a black screen where the video should be showing nothing but the play button. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

comicblast Posted August 31, 2013 Share Posted August 31, 2013 So is it just me or the new feature prevents people from seeing how many likes a post receives ? For me, I can't see how many people liked a post, and who like it. Once I click Like This, it just changes to Unlike. I don't think it's a huge deal though. If it's quality, it will get likes. If it isn't, then it won't. Simple as that! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff Mack Posted August 31, 2013 Share Posted August 31, 2013 So is it just me or the new feature prevents people from seeing how many likes a post receives ? Take a look at the first post here:http://community.brickpicker.com/topic/4926-forum-rules-regulations-facts-and-etiquette/?p=143220 You will see that it says "TheOrcKing, ph4tb0i, Grolim and 11 others like this" There is also a star on that post because it has over 10 likes. So after 2 or 3 likes, it will give you a count of how many others like it. So basically you get more info, not less than before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you have to hit "like this" before you see that information on a post? I haven't used the button yet and haven't actually seen any posts that say "So and So liked this". I do however, see the star on the top of the post. Just wondering as I wasn't using the button yet because I hadn't noticed anyone else doing so. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, it's not showing up on the desktop or mobile sites for me, I tried liking, unliking etc. for the whole lot. Maybe the function is only visible for moderators?

I just liked yours so you can see it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

justafrog Posted August 31, 2013 Share Posted August 31, 2013 I can see it, too. I don't think I'll be using the feature any more, though - I am terrible at remembering names, etc., and don't want to be arrested for spamming if I suddenly have a rash of posts I like from the same person and don't remember I've already hit like whatever number of times that day/week for that person. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't look into that much. If it is a good post, Like it, that's all there is to it. Just never Like posts that are "LOL!" and stuff like that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have the online social awareness skills of your average cheddar cheese - it's why I can never engage in a really satisfactory online feud, I lose track of who my friends and foes are.

Sauromosis Posted September 10, 2013 Share Posted September 10, 2013 The total value of my portfolio on my main "Brickfolio" page has never matched up with the value at the bottom of "View Entire Collection." Currently, the main page says it's worth 500 dollars more than the "View Entire Collection." Is there something I can edit to make them match?
