So a newbie with 100 likes on their car feels good. I don't really see it used as a doomsday evil weapon on the car sites. I am surprised at the opinions against here, it is so common anymore.
Once again I find myself in agreement with bird72.

I've been wishing for a thumbs up kind of feature as it's really handy to be able to just give a good post a bit of a boost rather than having to copy it then write "well said" or "I agree" or "that's right" or "right on" or .... whatever. Doing that clutters up a thread a lot more than just hitting the like/thumbs up button. This works well on other car forums I belong to. Nothing says you have to use it if you don't like it.

I do like the idea of the middle finger button... LOL!
