So now we are just going to get a collection of "likes" very boring. As so many people liked to use them I cannot for the life of me depriving members the opportunity of using them.Originally posted by \
As has been said if you do not like them do not use them.

Being able to "agree" with a previous post was really handy. Can we please have the agree gong back?Comment

But wasn't the issue of them being over-used? Let's have nice comments instead of just clicking an iconOriginally posted by \

I miss them all, I thought they were great and it seems that it has been over analysed. Why didn't we just add a good effort gong as well then there would be less great builds ones. It seems like you could either say amazing or meh, gold silver or bronze would do. We are surely all able to take it like grown ups if we are told things could be improved or are ok but not great.
Bring em back!Comment

Having given this some thought and the general nature of this forum I don't think removing the doodabs will have any impact on people posting or not
We still have the like button so that will be used instead and the great build , i don't think the doodabs made people lazy I just think people gave them as there was nothing else to add and they didn't want to be sounding like a repeating record also I think it was a way to show appreciation if they didn't have time to post
Get rid or keep I doubt it will make people post more or lessComment

Well after a good nights sleep and time to reflect on all the icons disappearing I feel they should now be reinstated as it's blatantly obvious they are missed by many myself included (sad face here)and the forum doesn't seem the same without them.To what seems like the few people who didn't like them please just ignore them if they do manage to get reinstated and text away to your hearts content.No icons will certainly effect my number of posts as I have limited free time as I have a full time job and I used to drop in an icon a few simple worlds and move onto the next thread.Dougies idea of gold silver and bronze medals is great.BRING THEM BACK KEEP THE MAJORITY OF PEOPLE HAPPY (smilie face here)Comment

There is another factor in this to be considered, people who suffer from dyslexia! Predictive and spellcheck can only help so much so a simple doodab can help here , some people are very weary from posting onboards like this as there are a lot of English teachers out there that believe spelling and grammar should always be used and they can get quite nasty
I don't think that will happen here but not everyone knows this and they might be cautiousComment

My initial post was just to point out how the 'Great build' was being over used, that's all. It didn't bother me if it stayed or went.
Regarding the other doodahs. The removal of them was admins. decision. My first post didn't mention them.
My motive for raising the subject were nothing to do with gong hunting, as some posts seem to imply. I was simply trying to highlight the problem of possible 'over use'
My suggestion were eventually twisted out of all proportion by some from what I originally wrote and eventually became lost.
However, I'll of course go with whatever is decided in the vote, and if the Administration agrees with the result, I'm sure they will do what is right for this forum.
It really has blown up a bit from what was a simple suggestion to review something really quite trivial, to me reading one or two slightly unpleasant remarks.
Me? I've got a tank to wreck!Comment
