I noticed there are no negative emotions like; Dislike. I guess that could get ugly real fast.All of the sudden there are 8 little emojis instead of just a like...we'll have to see how this works...

I don't like the new rating system. At all.
The more people who don't like my postings the better, it means I must be doing something right.Yup. Real fast. I have a friend who used to frequent a certain forum until they introduced "dislikes". He said it wasn't long before people were forming "gangs", as he put it, to flame posters they didn't like.

Why not?
Sorry, Sunstone, I was just logging back in to edit my post with details of "why not." I should not have just "voted" and left. Thanks for asking.
I feel not only will the new rating system detract from posters and readers concentrating on creating substance for the forum(s), i.e., the content of the posts themselves, but also now both poster and reader will have to sort and decide gradations of opinion, let alone click one by one on 8 (!) potential "lists" to see who feels how about what. It is ego's nature to see who likes what's been written, who is basically agreeing with the substance of the post. It will be very time consuming and RF participation is already very time consuming. It feels like a time-devouring "side track" from my understanding of the purpose of the forum. Just my opinion.

The <thumbs up> option seems a good default.
Problem solved!
And why is the symbol for <useful> a bomb with fins?

Nuthing beats throwing a monkey wrench into.....er....to someone.I thought that at first. My phone screen is small. It's actually a wrench.
