Throwing this up in the air. Shoot it down, ignore it, catch it or run like hell.
I get the entire premise of the O.P. from my Oscar the Grouch friend. I have been scratching my head more than my bum lately. Searching for a "meet you half way" solution.
NUMBER ONE.
No one on here thoroughly explained the original LIKE PROCESS. At least in detail.. for those NOT IN THE KNOW.
So how do you expect traditions to continue if we are not informed of the "Old School Method" of conservation of
likes?
Expecting the next generation of members of an ever growing in masses community, to hold on to a standard which doesn't exist NOR has been laid out in detail especially, on a thread that the premise is a rant to save a system that THOUSANDS haven't a clue what you are ranting about. The only thing that I have absorbed is that my buddy Ralphie, quoted that he loves to be hated one minute and the next goes on a rant about new members have more likes than veteran members. I am confused until all the details of the previous
like system are published so I can understand the differences.
NUMBER TWO:
Lets say that my current comprehension of the prior method of
liking something accounted more than a rating system. The newer system that currently appears to be like a popularity contest. Some have thousands of likes v.s. some have fewer likes. Is it the system it's self that is to blame? Or having a larger fan or friend base because of connecting to the community in a positive relations manor?
NUMBER THREE:
Lets say my interpretation of the previous system is as followed. Total speculation of course. If you were to like a post, it would not reflect on a score board? Or you were only allowed to give so many likes in a designated period? I am confused.
I have a solution but it has it's ups and downs. It would discriminate against positive attitude contributors unless they were somehow Grandfathered in with their current standing points.
Simply add a new EMOJI in the existing library for a LIKE RESPONSE.

Not necessarily this particular one but take this as a rough draft example.
We already have the
and the
emoji's, why not a

Then, if I am interpreting the old school system was you were you are allowed a limited amounts of bullets in your
RATINGS likes pistol, you would be a little more Conservative on your
like ammunition.

I am not choosing sides or jumping across a line drawn in the sand. Just trying to come up with a simple solution to make everybody happy. Compromise between disgruntled members against change and the "previous format" ignorant to the fact newbies spreading a positive attitude.
Call me ignorant to the fact until the old system is laid out in detail.
I am em-connie and that was more than 2 cents.
BTW.. Why can't we all just
