It reminds me of Facebook. It's not nice for those with low self esteem. So please!
Can't be too sensitive on the interwebs. Welcome to the Vu by the way
It is nice to only have the like button over here imo. On that other forum I used to frequent there were too many options and the disagree button always started some kind of drama when someone hit it.Hello and welcome to VU. Wait till you see all the emojis. You'll swear they're following you from thread to thread.

I like the added ratings and miss the funny & heart when over here. Red x gets used very little anymore.It is nice to only have the like button over here imo. On that other forum I used to frequent there were too many options and the disagree button always started some kind of drama when someone hit it.
People on Reddit flip out over downvotes. I see it all the time. "Thanks for down voting me. I'm not coming back to this sub". I still don't even know what the votes are for there. Some people get all bent out of shape and I don't even pay attention to my score lol.It is nice to only have the like button over here imo.

Posts actually disappear from down voting over there.People on Reddit flip out over downvotes. I see it all the time. "Thanks for down voting me. I'm not coming back to this sub".

I only Reddit one forum over there.Y'know, I've been online in one way or another since 1989 -- internet since '99, when I started building websites,using both plain HTML/CSS, and content mgmt systems of quite a few different kinds, even some for .NET/ASP servers... and I have NEVER been able to figure out Reddit; how the "threading" works, how to find something... nothing. Anytime I've tried to find something on Reddit, I usually end up in a thread that's been closed since 2010 or something.
I'll stick to forums, Quora, and twitter -- those are actually organized in a way that makes SENSE.

I only Reddit one forum over there.
And not a lot on this one.
https://www.reddit.com/r/electronic_cigarette/
That forum and this one are the only places I post on the net.
I was on the internet before it was known or browsers existed.
I worked in Telecom.
Before that I was on some dialup boards.

But I can't make heads nor tails of Reddit. It's the most disorganized mess I've ever seen.
There should totally be an "IT'S AIGHT" button.
How ironic: A post complaining about "like"s getting seven likes.
A site called "DSL Reports" (aka: "BroadBand Reports") used to have both "up" and "down" vote buttons. But then some people with frequently unpopular PoVs complained about the downvote buttons and they were removed.One of the VERY few things I like better about Quora than here is that there is also a "down vote" arrow.
Maybe we should have a like a bit, like alot, sort of like, like but confused, like hot dog and .....
What are you, a millennial? Yes we do keep score in the real world and there are winners and losers. No points for trying. lolIt reminds me of Facebook. It's not nice for those with low self esteem. So please!

Low self esteem see a therapist. Vape on.. and LIKE on!
LOL I've called a member in another forum who had been a member 3 years longer than I was a "toodle puffer" and told him to get out of the advanced section and go back to new users. LMAO. Experience is not the same as expertise. He may have puffed a 20w mod for 10 years but that doesnt mean he can build for a Doomsday mod..
YUP! Like or not, I don't care, but I don't get all depressed if someone doesn't like what I say. Hell, most of the time people DON'T like what I say. And I don't care. lol.
The Stranger: There's just one thing, Dude.
The Dude: And what's that?
The Stranger: Do you have to use so many cuss words?
The Dude: What the fuck you talking about?
The Stranger: Okay, Dude. Have it your way.
The Stranger: Take it easy, Dude.
The Dude: Oh, yeah!
The Stranger: I know that you will.
The Dude: Yeah, well - the Dude abides.
[Exits with beers in hand]
The Stranger: [to the camera] The Dude abides. I don't know about you but I take comfort in that. It's good knowin' he's out there. The Dude. Takin' 'er easy for all us sinners.
could not help myself.

Just being a "tootle puffer" has NOTHING to do with being a beginner or an expert. It's just one preference.
Can agree with this. At one time I too tootle puffed. Then, I realized the power of Squonk + RDAs (Thank you @Hank F. Spankman aka Spanky). And then, I learned Jesus was an architect and Jerry Lee Lewis was the devil.
Not sure I could go back to enjoying tootle puffing. Suppose if it was a have to do, I'd be suited to do it. It's not so much that I chuck clouds now. I might get some nice ones once in a while, mostly though I have moderate clouds. It doesn't matter much to me beyond enjoying the texture of more cloud in the use of RDAs.
I'm so glad we can all find what we like.
Magic of communication of chaos of communication?Well, even "handy" man becomes ambiguous if you ponder it. Know a guy that does odd work, mends fences, timbers, digs trenches, builds houses & structures, he is a "handy man". Know another guy that enjoys video games, music, books but he is cute as a button. He is a "handy" man too.
Words are such variable creatures. Sometimes a person has to ponder the magic of communication happening.
