There would be so many situations where I would love there to be dislikes for the forums, especially in the matter that I was extremely good at posting post dead threads which only caused loss of respect. The only difference dislikes gave me was a quick way to say 'Lugg, please don't do this'. Then there's the fact of 'trolling' when someone goes through all your posts and dislikes them but seriously, what's the difference? I find the counting of forum likes and amount of posts as interesting as profile views, so far I've noticed the amount of likes you've had on facebook hasn't been displayed to me and I wouldn't be interested even if they did. All I can really say about this is that I agree with checkers, disliking a post is so much easier than posting 'dude, stahp' thousands of times. Not sure this would amount to anything at all, seems that they've made their minds up and others are just copy-pasting through previous posts.
