AtariAge History: The Like Button


Recommended Posts

Before the like button existed here at AtariAge, we were given reputation points in August of 2009 after a forum upgrade:

You can now positively vote up individual posts. These points are added to a user's reputation, which is displayed on their profile as well as their user popup panel. At this time you can only positively vote posts up. I have disabled negative voting after watching what a mess that was on the Invision test forums. At the bottom of a given thread you can set a threshold to filter out posts below a certain point value.

 

Interface in topics to up-vote an individual post:

AtariAge Subscriptions were introduced in December of 2009 and subscribers were able to give more reputation points each day:

In October of 2010, AtariAge still didn't have an official like button:

AtariAge moved from simple likes to reactions in June of 2019:

Reactions - Instead of simply "Liking" a post, you can now choose from five different reactions (Like, Thanks, Haha, Confused, and Sad). We can customize these down the road if need be based on feedback.
