coldel Posted October 20, 2015 Share Posted October 20, 2015 The FB one is going to be a dislike plus a range of emotions i.e. angry dislike, sad dislike I belive The reason for its introduction is so that companies that use social media data can have a more granular view of brands on social media - just knowing lot of people like it is useless if twice as many dislike it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good marketing tool I read about a research study on FB users which stated that if you check FB first thing in the morning and last thing at night you are more likely to suffer with depression, something to do with feeling their lives are lacking when comparing against other people's posts! Some people can get really obsessed as well, constantly checking it and perhaps always checking up on a particular person - really scary stuff!

coldel Posted October 20, 2015 Share Posted October 20, 2015 Yes FB is now a strong commercial proposition to data companies (I speak with them all the time) its not something that exists for people to use, its there to collect and sell information it gets willingly from people.

GMballistic Posted October 20, 2015 Share Posted October 20, 2015 I'd say no. Keep it positive. Negatives just cause fights. Well said. Plus one imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve916 Posted October 20, 2015 Share Posted October 20, 2015 I was just gonna mention Dan Could imagine he would wear out a 'Dislike' button very quickly every time somebody mentions tyres. "Today I bought these Goodyear..." DISLIKE "Today I bought these Pirelli....." DISLIKE "Today I bought these MPSS..." LIKE LIKE LIKE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leonk Posted October 20, 2015 Share Posted October 20, 2015 I take every post that says they hate me as a sign I'm doing something right As Oscar Wilde said Dan, there is only one thing worse than being talked about............. and that's not being talked about. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

veilside z Posted October 21, 2015 Share Posted October 21, 2015 By not hitting the Like option, Just don't like it, then you do not have to upset somebody . 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kraziekatz1 Posted October 21, 2015 Author Share Posted October 21, 2015 I think you all got the wrong idea ....I'm very disappointed in you all Very negative bunch lol What I actually meant by the 'dislike' option was in the context of 'support'.....you know if someone posts something along the lines of 'someone drove into my car' or 'I've had bad day', etc. You don't want to press 'Like' in those situations but you might want to sympathise with a 'dislike'?! I don't know maybe this is a female thing, and clearly from your responses many of you would abuse this facility Anyway, it's always interesting to see how people react to new suggestions Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you were a gladiator in ancient Rome and you got a thumbs down whilst having a particularly bad day at work they wouldn't be sympathising with you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ilogikal1 Posted October 22, 2015 Share Posted October 22, 2015 Can we have buttons for every other possible response too? Just to save us ever having to actually type anything out again. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
