I tend to agree that the Rate button is not great. There's very little (maybe none) relation to a Like feature for an individual post.
I believe that is where the "Reputation" points come from, which is another feature that I'm not keen on. It seems extraneous in my opinion.
Edit: I should point out that I don't want to look a gift horse in the mouth and I'm very grateful to have this forum--in any form, with any features--back. .
As the cool kids say - 100!

I think we should all agree to not leave negative ratings under any circumstances. Unless you have 20 sock puppet accounts and hate yourself.

I think we should all agree to not post as jerks, but that doesn't get very far either.
Any why use a Dislike button when one can (usually) articulate the winters of their discontent.

Have you looked at the rating system? It's not a "dislike" button.And people have been leaving detailed negative ratings for others already. .
No, but then I don't like rating systems much at all.
Maybe it's AMZ that ruined them for me, maybe not.
Matters not.
One can leave an articulate, constructive criticism or critique in the thread, addressing the situation directly.
If one doesn't want to bother, there's the Report button, if they're so moved.

Well, hard to discuss something if the other person doesn't know what you're discussing.

I've longed for a Like button for years. It's nice to be able to let someone know you are in agreement without having to quote-post and comment. Sometimes a simple Like is just the ticket.
