Forum post minimum length

I may be missing the point here, but if it’s annoying to not be able to comment unless it consists of at least 15 characters, then maybe the solution is to pause long enough to find something that stacks up as a considered comment.

Maybe that’ll result in fewer knee-jerk responses and will enhance the dialogue.

My inner and outer geek was sad that I couldn’t like your post but loved that fact I only have to wait 47 minutes before I can

Sorry @N26throwaway I am going to get the badge before you :rofl:

I agree. It could be a generational thing but I am not keen on using reactions/emoji either.

To me, the minimum character limit is an irritating pain that just stops legitimate short responses

5 posts were merged into an existing topic: TV programmes from back then…

I’m probably a bit too overzealous with my likes, but never mind!

Updated the forum last night, added in the reactions

Just press and hold the heart icon to see these.

May not be to everyone’s taste, so we’ll trial it. If it doesn’t work, we can remove it. But would be good to have some feedback (good and bad)

I like this a lot, I wouldn’t want things to get out of control but to actually be able to express displeasure without having to call somebody out would be great. Maybe a thumbs down reaction :thinking:

Loving these reactions @Mathew, completely agree with @anon85728687 as well.

:joy: thank you! Hopefully doesn’t get abused!

We’ll give it a go! If it doesn’t work or is abused, we can tweak it or remove it completely.

(Was waiting for you to give me the thumbs down :sweat_smile:)

What’s the one with the hands supposed to be?

On iMessage, I use it as a hug

It’s labelled as “care”, so hug (or cwtch, if you’re Welsh :wink:) fits nicely!

For me the alternative to a like is not working on the web interface on mobile.


I can see that @N26throwaway Gave you a thumbs down but I don’t seem to be able to do the same

Am I the only one who possesses the power of the the :-1:? :joy:
