yep, thumbs down is even set to a +0 so it doesn't even affect your reputation score :)

What I find more amusing, is that the email you get when someone thumbs down a post says "XXX liked a post in a topic". Then I get all excited, I go there only to find it's a thumb down ..i'm like "Aww man!"

Just do what I do in cases like this, run to the poll section and create a poll :D

It's a bit late for that now. Judging from the results, most are happy to keep the dislike reaction as it currently is.

I just want a puke reaction

The feature is fine, leave it alone. There is nothing wrong with the thumbs down reaction. It's a problem with this new touchy-feely society. People need to grow a set of balls.

Heck, I found it amusing when a guy went back into a thread and disliked every post of mine and a couple others. :laugh:

For me it's not the thumbs down that bothers me but when a specific user goes through an entire thread and down votes every post you make without leaving any sort of response to any of it that bothers me.

 

I've even had posts where someone made a good point and I'd reply with something as innocuous as "fair enough" or something similar and even that gets thumbed down without a response. At that point they're not doing it because they disagree they're doing it because they have some sort of weird vendetta and it feels extremely childish.

 

I feel like if you're going to go through an entire thread an down vote every post a person makes a reason should be required otherwise why are you there? If you're not adding anything to a conversation then it amounts to being a low caliber troll at that point.

    • hands down the worst version of Windows to date and sadly I think it's only downhill from here
    • I've never known a release to have so much pressure than this one. There is so much riding on the whole games industry because of everything that's changed in the past five years. That if this is a complete flop then I think the whole games industry is done unless something radically changes.
    • Windows 11 is now five years old by Taras Buria Windows 11 is now half a decade old. Five years ago, on June 24, 2021, Microsoft announced its latest operating system, designed to "bring you closer to what you love." Today, Windows 11 celebrates its fifth birthday. The launch of Windows 11 was interesting. Rumors about Microsoft introducing a Windows 10 successor popped up weeks before the public announcement, and a few days later, an entire preview build leaked online, allowing everyone to take a peek at what Microsoft was preparing. A few weeks later, Microsoft confirmed that Windows 11 was a thing and officially unveiled its next-gen operating system. Early versions of Windows 11 promised quite a lot. A redesigned, more modern user interface, a brand new Start menu and taskbar, improvements to virtual desktops and window snapping, Android app support, Teams integrated into the taskbar, Windows Widgets, a new version of the Microsoft Store, improved security, and more. Some of those features were welcomed, while others were received with heavy criticism. Besides missing taskbar and Start menu features, many disliked the steep hardware requirements, which kicked out PCs that were back then still perfectly fine. TPM and Secure Boot became mandatory, causing a spike in sales of dedicated TPM chips for motherboards. Double-layered context menus were disliked as well, and it is something that Microsoft still has to fix. Additionally, with time, some of Windows 11's exclusive features were simply killed. Microsoft removed the Teams integration and discontinued Android app support. During the early days of Windows 11, Microsoft was quite unwilling to address things that users criticized most. After four years on the market, management changes, and heated competition from the Mac camp, Microsoft finally decided to give in and take its operating system back to the drawing board to fix everything users had been complaining about for years. Microsoft is now redesigning the Start menu, adding missing taskbar features, improving Windows Update, fixing Windows 11's context menu, and more. Some believe all that warrants a new Windows 12 release, but for now, it appears that Windows 11 will stick around for a while. With Microsoft now listening to its core audience and acting upon received feedback, fans can finally expect a much better version of Windows 11 than what was available five years ago. Here is to five more years, Windows 11!
