Can see the utility for some threads but for showcases, which are already dying, it's another nail in the coffin

It's something I have to get used to but it's a faster way to show that you agree with something other than making a new post to say just that. Time will tell I guess?

I dont really know how I feel. I think it's a good idea in situations like showcases but I really don't see the point other wise. It's basically giving people the option to just like posts rather than give constructive comments. Also this is a bit of an out there idea but this might make some people get a big head and say that they are more important or that their opinion means more because they have more likes. Just a thought

actually think it's a cool change even if it's pretty minor because

What Reier said. The forum needs more posts not less, and a like feature encourages people to simply drop a like on a post rather than posting a proper response. Hell, even a 1 word response like 'cool' on a showcase is better than a like IMO because at least that pushes the showcase to the top of the 'recent posts' thing so other users are more likely to see it and reply to it, where with a like it gives no meaningful feedback AND won't lead to any additional users seeing the post.

No.
