Hello Vijay... in last 2 days, you have spent max time with us in sorting out the issues and thank you so much for all your efforts... :)
Well, coming to the above post by someone...she had posted how she misses it...if you ask for a vote from members, I would say, 90 /100 would go for this "like" display. This is one of the specialty of IF and now you are saying that this feature was taking lot of server resource...and hence you are changing it? I am really sorry to say that I am quite disappointed with your thoughts and decisions.
Please understand firstly, what is IF for us??... IF is not only a platform where we share information , but its a friend's gathering. I have made n' number of friends here with whom I chat on regular basis...it is so much of a fun to see who all have liked the post and supporting me...as their names stands out in lines, and makes it colourful, it adds colours to your positiveness. IF has become a part of our life for its friendly features and this "Liking" method in the old format is one of the main feature that each and every member use to love it. it really looks cute and attractive and so very different from other social sites. Especially, when you post an update for a fan fiction you are writing, you feel so pleased to see the number of likes and names of the people shown in horizontal lines...and that would encourage us to write further. Now, we just get to see only number of likes? Its really not done! :(
Also, now, each and every member who likes my post, I am not able to see if they are a new bee, senior member or an IF rocker and even more senior, isn't it even more demotivating factor for the members who are liking my posts?
I hope you understand my point of view on this. please dont make changes that only benefits IF team, you need to consider what we members prefer.
