Knowing who liked my threads.

Why can't we see who liked our threads? I can go onto anyone's profile and see exactly what posts and threads they liked. All of them if I'm willing to hit the "View More" button enough. Why is it that I can't have a list of people who've liked a thread? Even if it's just for my own personal knowledge, why can't I know? That's ridiculous. Unless someone has a VERY distinctive avatar (I usually recognize Hyle, Verachi, Spawn, CoRaMo, and Sven when they do it but not anyone else really) I've no idea who it is. I'd like to know who it who's supporting my threads or posts. It makes it more personal and, one could argue, gives the community a more tight-knit feeling. Furthermore, everyone should be able to know who likes a thread or post and how many likes are on it. Liking a post shouldn't be anonymous. It takes the problem of the "This"s, the quote-posting, the "QFT"s and makes it so that that person can no longer publicly, silently express approval for or agreement with a person or their ideas. That's what liking should be for, not to just randomly and powerlessly contribute to a random pool of Likes which eventually, at some unknown time makes a thread go blue for a certain period of time but then back to clear after a certain period of time. It makes the whole thing pointless. But, if there were a number attached thereto -- "47 people liked this thread" -- then someone can look at that number knowing they contributed to it and the OP and everyone else can look through a collapsable list and view whomever approved of the thread or ideas therein. A response from someone on the Web Team would be cool considering I don't think I've seen them talk about this at all and I don't see why it is the way it is.

  • I find it easier to operate under the assumption that everyone likes everything I have to say.

    Looks like it might be a bug. Like recon said there are ways to see who was the last person to like your post but I think it would be better if there was a way to see everybody that like it. [url=http://www.bungie.net/en/Forum/Post?id=60085075&path=1][quote][b]Posted by:[/b] A fly Lady I get notifications that 1 "person liked your post", but I can't seem to find out who that person was. I can see their avatar picture, but there's no username. Is there a way for me to see the username? [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Noble Iron Sky Heya, Thanks for pointing this out! This issue has been logged, and the web team is aware of it. Thanks for being a part of the community, and helping to make Bnet a better place. =) -NIS[/quote][/url][/quote]
