Suggestion Could We Add Agree/Disagree Reactions?

[cheat_master30]

Personally, I feel they'd add quite a bit to the site. For instance, there are quite a few times I see a thoughtful, well written post that I disagree with, but don't have anything to rate it with. Same goes with a less thought out post I do agree with; it's not good enough to get a like, but I definitely feel it'd be useful to show I agree with the point made none the less.

So yeah, could those two be added? Presumably with a green tick for 'Agree' and a red cross for 'Disagree', like on TAZ in the past/the forums I run now?

I'd like to agree with an agree but...

Regardless that gets my vote!

 

[R0binHood]

I’d like all the old ones back. There’s no space constraint with the new pop up

I'm kinda surprised that neither TH's or Xon's XF2 reactions add-on wasn't used to import & preserve the old ratings. There is even an add-on from Nixfifty floating around to import the old XF1 Post Ratings directly as XF2 Reactions.

It takes time, which I've already mentioned previously. However, I'm working on this now, and the importing etc.

All of this will be coming back.

Just an update, some of the pixel mapping seems to be off...so another thing to work on.

 

[R0binHood]

Can we get the old ratings but using updated graphics?

The old graphics are tiny tap targets on mobile and we've lost the nice tooltip pop up on desktop now too, when hovering from one to the next. Even on desktop they're super tiny too.

JoyPixels 5.0 is already included with XF. Here's some suggestions:

Useful - Wrench:


Informative - Information


Agree - Check Mark


Like - The default blue XF2 one, or a normal thumbs up


Love - The default XF2 Heart Eyes (or a heart)


Funny - The default XF2 laugh


Winner - glowing star or medal


...more to come but I hit the 10 attachment limit per post...

Sad - slightly frowny face




Angry - Pouting face


Genius - nerd or brain


Wow - Face with open mouth or astonished face


And if you wanted to resurrect drama queen - performing arts

I don't know if this little bit of passive-aggressive was aimed at me but, you know, on a site like this you should just assume that a lot of us have also done major migrations and are fully aware of what is involved.

Admiration (can't remember the name) was a nice one.

 

[R0binHood]

Oh yeah, appreciation and creative

Not directed to you or being passive. Apologies if it came across as that.

I think useful and informative are basically the same thing. I would ditch "useful".
Also appreciation is missing, which would be the same as "love" probably.

 

[R0binHood]

I disagree. A lot of posts might be informative, but I don't necessarily find them useful.

 

[sbjsbj]

I disagree. A lot of posts might be informative, but I don't necessarily find them useful.

Technically speaking, any information is useful. Something can't be informative and at the same time not be useful. Because then it wouldn't have been informative in first place.

But I do understand now what your point is. You want to emphasize if the given information is relevant to you personally, then it becomes useful to you. But as I said, in general, every kind of informative thing is useful without exception. But it doesn't mean all of them is relevant to you, which you want to express with "useful". Well, alright, I see the angle but another wording would have been better I think.

It's going to be impossible to please everyone because we will have differing views. Personally I'd prefer that all the images came from the same pen so to speak because I prefer consistency but then again I'm just one voice in the crowd

 

[Paul M]

I dont see a 'Disagree' yet.

It would be good to get more contrast between the icons and the icon background. On my screen, the thumb on the agree icon is hard to see due to the lack of contrast.

 

[R0binHood]

I tried increasing the size of the reaction graphics locally, and one in particular for some reason grew exponentially larger than all the rest, expressing my feelings for the state of the new 3rd party reactions panel overall at this point in time.
