So how about the laugh button? Is it being discussed? Or is it a big no?

The mods can't do anything about it.
That would be admin.

Yeah, I bugged him about it a couple times, he basically said no. He doesn't code the site personally, so he'd have to get someone to do it, and given all the attention the place needs it's not his first priority.

You take away all the humor, throwing some punches in here and there. You lose your audience. Does everyone really want a 100% straight up nothing but professional forum?

The "THANKS" button is fairly new and the forum was fine before that change..
Nathan even has a "heart" button for something.. but we got rid of that one in a hurry..
