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.
As quote option is working for only one time... I Copied and pasted my reply to Vijay's message (above) here so that people can understand what is this discussion all about.
I soo agree with ur words fully heartedly.I was shattered into pieces when he confirmed it's not coming back.And am wonder if it really toke up 'alot of server and resource',how they managed to display it in IF for more than 10 years??
We all hope for its safety return.The only unique feature that made IF to glow up with its colorful usernames and aesthetic look.
We seriously don't have that time to waste to see a long list of liked usernames!
Put it into consideration,Sir
Me really going speachless... IF team is only concentrating on the technical part and not the emotional one which bounds we members and IF together and we members from each other... What big will it will take in displaying the likes ? see how disgusting you feel when you click on like link ...the members who have like the post, Only name can be seen...and that too not in an order... we cannot see what status they hold... Now, my question to all members..do you want your "likes" to be displayed like this? This is really not fair. :(
