Most comment boards/blogs have like/dislike features.  As I read thru various board post, most of the time it would be nice to just acknowledge my opinion on a post, but the effort to post a message, decide if I want alias or handle, and then complete th form is just not worth effort.  I know hieght of laziness.

Now to keep in context with this group, instead of Like/Dislike perhaps the options should be A-Hole / Contributor.  Or perhaps something like Mangina vs Hobby Star.  With this simple feature,  we could 'vote' on what was said/opinioned without bothering the moderators with our flame-o-grams. It could even facilitate weekly reviews of highest scoring threads.  Hell, this might keep some of the trama/drama out of the hair of the moderators

Just a thought
