I don’t know if there is any plugin to add a Dislike button on Discourse though, but guess that it’s normally not possible to add it as of now…

Negative feedback (or just a negative response, in this case) is often hard to accept while maintaining composure. It is better to reward good behavior and let the “not-good” behavior fall behind.

I mean, there are sometimes where we must take action, but in general it is less detrimental to the feelings of the person. Downvotes often cause fights.

I think the flagging system works just fine for the extremes.

true, I agree 100%

I get annoyed sometimes when there’s a poster that does’nt recognize the full worth of what they have been given by this free service and the wonderful support , all they do is moan about this and that or insist that you add some feature etc.

in these cases I would love a “dislike” or “you’re an idiot” button 🤣  
but yeah it’s a bad idea

I would like to ask that new topics not be opened unnecessarily for every thought that crosses someone’s head (from the wrong color in CA to “hi there”)  
but to **simply write in 20k**  
especially when something has to do with the forum.

* * *

Other users see it and eventually, we will have 30 informal topics on a daily basis  
and little by little we will soon have topics about growing tomatoes, the best clothes for pets, etc.

20k exists precisely for these purposes, to centralize all that.

I never knew that 20k was for that, I thought it was a thread that just got out of hand

thanks

There was a misunderstanding - sorry for confusing you with my previous post

I’m not mad at you, nor was the above a hidden meaning, but a literal one 🙂

Feel free to open/write where you want and on any topics
