I couldn't careless if I receive a dislike.  I've even joked about it.  Why would someone be bothered, it's a simple, truly meaningless response when no reason is given. I've seen some complain, but those are some of same people are the first to slam others.  One member complained about getting multiple thumbs down all at once, yet that same person does the same to them in the threads.  Whether it's one at a time or done through your profile/posts so what.  Again it's meaningless if they can not bother to share their reasons. 

You could careful then?

I would've agreed until @MikeChipshop disliked one of my posts. It ruined me. I am crying at my local supermarket getting ready to buy tissues. :cry:@Steven P. was also very emotional because of him.

Still not sure what you mean.

Man, you are ruining the funny. 

 

Couldn’t careless means you instead could careful. Reasoning: you weren’t able to be careless, therefore you must be careful. 

 

It it was just a little fun on you joining two separate words ;)

Its a quick poll to show, how many peoples are agree with you or not. some people don't want to reply or don't want to waste their time on explanation, so this "reaction" comes handy.

To be honest, I do see both sides of the point of view, a thumb down or the I disagree button without an explanation does seem like trolling, it's a forum, we're here to talk/debate/help/share experiences, thumbing down someone simply because a user doesn't like them, or just to try to get some form of smug satisfaction is pretty childish. Speaking for me at least, (unless the user I've thumbed down is a complete and utter moron, and not worth the effort of a response), I try to respond as to why I disagree..

On the quick poll front, there isn't an at a glance reaction tally, so I cannot say if I agree or not.

As the other mods have said we have been looking at this and seeing how it affects what we're doing, because team work y'know ;)


At the moment, apart from a few isolated issues, the dislike (and other reactions) system has been working well. 

 

Also with the reasoning behind every reaction, do we really want a reason why people found something funny or why someone liked/loved something for every reaction? Probably not, whilst it's not as constructive, it does provide a quick way to react to post. I prefer the conversation, but I see nothing wrong with the reactions. Just remember we can't see everything that's going on within the site, so please report and we will look into these things. 

 

It would be nice to keep a feature, in spite of the few cases, because it's good to have something nice :D but please keep providing us with feedback!

I feel it may now be my civic duty to go back through recent posts and down vote you both whenever possible! :p

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.

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

    • Ah well, who needs computers in the next 10... 15 years right? At this point is just money laundering.
    • RollerCoaster Tycoon 3 and Voidwrought are free on the Epic Games Store by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe PC gamers can now jump in and grab two more games to keep this week, as the Epic Games Store's ever-present giveaway promotion has just gone through another refresh. Replacing last week's Citizen Sleeper and Robobeat offers, the store has brought in RollerCoaster Tycoon 3 Complete Edition and Voidwrought to keep. From the duo, Roller Coaster Tycoon 3: Complete Edition is an enhanced version of the classic title that was originally released in 2004. It comes with enhancements such as widescreen and 1080p resolution support, as well as increased compatibility with modern PC hardware. It also comes bundled with all the extra content from the Soaked! and Wild! expansion packs. "Control park finances, shops, services and staff to succeed in dozens of scenarios," reads the description. "Become a true tycoon and embark on your promising new career, or create your ideal park without money woes in sandbox mode. Satisfy your guests’ needs and keep your park running smoothly to succeed." If management is not your style, Voidwrought lands as a 2D action-platformer featuring hand-drawn cosmic horrors. The title touts tight platforming and close‑quarters combat, all brought together with a strong emphasis on mobility. "Descend below the star-scorched surface and explore the multidimensional depths below," says the studio Powersnake about the game. "Witness the corrupted revelry of the Court, lose yourself in the icy tunnels of the Old Waters, and discover the grim fate of the Abandoned Expedition." The RollerCoaster Tycoon 3 Complete Edition and Voidwrought giveaways are set to run until June 25 on the Epic Games Store, giving PC gamers seven days to claim the latest offer. Once this closes out, new freebies will take their place on the same day as always. Don't forget that mobile gamers can check out the Epic Game Store's weekly giveaways on Android and iOS to grab a freebie there as well.
