    Enjoy the intrigue for now. Maybe you will get a pleasant surprise in the near future when v4 is unveiled. On the other hand, judging by the number of likes you already have, it won't take you long to accumulate more in the future.

    So if I understand correctly it's in the works in the next version or up for discussion at least:) Lets turn this thread into suggestions for the mechanics of the like button to get it to our liking:) IMHO I feel 1/1 ratio is a little to much, sort of defeats the purpose I had in mind, as you just as easy could give rep instead. The point was if more give a like it would result in rep. I would like to see 5xlikes=1rep (a 5:1 ratio), and the like button to appear beside the rep, as I like keeping things neat:) When it comes to the retrospectivety, I think this new function would alter the way people use it so a fresh start is more fair in my opinion :)

    Nice idea Zack. I, like you think 1:1 is a little generous. Maybe 1:2 or 1:3. 1:10 seems a little off balance to me. If you get a like, you've typically earned it with what you have said. My experience has been that rep is the same way. I have run about 1 rep posting (not points) for every 2 likes. So, there's my take.

    I don't really like the idea, but the likes are currently useless, and many new members give likes instead of rep for posts that deserve rep. Clearly, something has to be done.

    I don't think 1:1 is a good idea, 1:10 as a minimum tbh... i'd even settle for 1:25 which would be great :)

    Likes are easy to get... if your an active member as opposed to Rep which really does need to be earned.

    I agree that so many new members gives likes where rep is deserved, especially when you are answering questions for them.

    But I wouldn't say likes are 'useless' entirely. There are times when I can like a post but don't really think it is rep worthy.

    What do you mean it is depressing? Rep is meant to reflect your contribution to the site. You have been here less than two months, you aren't meant to have thousands of rep just yet.

    more than likely it will be a 1-1 ratio just like the thank hack that was used in the forum prior to going to the like hack. @Forma if you want rep get active on the forum make a big splash and get noticed staying in the shadows will not earn you rep. rep is earn by making yourself known via posts or outstanding actions on the forum

    only the shadow knows the evil in the heart of men

    I think that if it's 1 like = 1 rep, the rep requirements for the levels should be increased by at least 50%. Getting likes should not be the main source of rep, it should be more like an addition.
