Boring Board News update. Have activated the 'like' button and added a companion 'dislike' button (see superb graphic) Fig. A Far more useful, especially as we tend to veer off topic, is the 'Individual Post Subjects' script. We used to have this as a default on earlier versions of proboards and it's dead handy, helps out the search engine, too. Example: see heading of following post.

I got into trouble with the 'dislike' button on another forum a few years ago. I started a thread that didn't go down too well and woke up the next morning with more than a dozen dislikes(-12 karma as it was there). I wouldn't have minded so much except that there were only about 6 active posters. On the plus side, I've posted on yet another forum for many years that only has a 'like' button and get on quite well with it.

Yeah, I can see a downside of both 'like' and 'dislike' buttons. Perhaps we should trial them until end of the month, see how it goes? The individual post subjects is a cracker.

More buttons! A button that generates the text "William Sansom, 'A Woman Seldom Found'" would save a lot of time.

Is it about a page and a half, or have I just read an excerpt to something longer? Edit: It occurs that I could have used the snazzy new subject change thingy here, but damn if I didn't forget, and the edit post function doesn't seem to let you. Oh well.

Just trying to work out whether I can register my dislike of my own posts (seems I can - that's going to be useful).
