It would be very nice when someone agrees with a post that they would check the like box before adding their comments. This is not for point gaining rather it is showing a little bit of thanks for the post the person wrote.

Oh, likes are used for other things, too. For example, a like is worth a point, so it doesn't matter if I agree, disagree or even like a post, I'll like it to get the points and to check that I've read that comment or reply. Both people get a point, so the other person likes me to give them. Exceptional posts get a love-like, and sometimes I'll give another, for example a Haha, Yawn, or Grr. Unfortunately, I often forget to give a like. Sorry.

That's a fair point, and I thank you for the reminder: it's something that I've more often than not forgotten about, but a habit I'd like to develop. It's occurred to me before that it's a little nonsensical (to me) to engage in discussion (pro or con, doesn't matter) without acknowledging the discussion prompt. Hopefully now I'll do better. 🙂

When I read a post that I agree with I always acknowledge the person by checking their box. I believe this only a common courtesy and that is what the box is there fore in the first place.
