We can like but can we dislike?

Hello,

I know that we can like a post using the like button, and everyone gets "liked" from time to time, But what do you guys think of a dislike button? I always want to know how many people disliked the post I didn't like.

If there already is a function like this then sorry I didn't notice

This idea has been suggested before and I don't think it has been accepted. It's because the dislike system would hurt someone and someone might get negative dislike which is very unpleasant

better yet a reputation system :thumbup:

probably won't happen, people who get too self-conscious about their like/dislike amount will probably get mad in some form and take it out on someone here in some way or form.

Just an idea, I understand why it's not getting implemented now.

Pretty sure vBulletin has a built in rep system but MentaL doesn't use it.

I can see why though, if it was used then people would probably abuse the negative rep+ button ie: disliking every one of a certain members post or making multiple accounts to dislike a post.
