Like Button
Dear fellow Paxers,
We have introduced a 'Like' button to all the forums. Which should appear at the bottom, right hand end of posts. This is to bring us a bit more up to date with other discussion sites. I am very pleased to see this as I have often wanted to agree with a post but not clog up with short messages.

I only see the 'Like' button on a very few threads (such as this one).
Its being trained on hard threads like Australia and rotorcraft I beleive
if they can understand it the rest of us will

Hello, Pip Pip, and welcome to the cabin. I do not know if the Like is only available to those who have passed the "I'm new here" winning post. Please do stay around to find out!
Thanks S.o.S. I will stick around...
The delayed introduction of the 'Like' button does have an amusing effect where the profiles of longer-standing Pruners are concerned. The first time I saw giants of the forum with >10,000 posts next to their name and zero Likes, I thought to myself 'tough crowd'.
But, truth be told, I liked that there were no Likes. Before I joined up, part of me hoped that the 'Like' button had always been available to members, but that nobody had ever felt the need to overtly express their approval in this manner. Simpler times...

I'm not seeing the like button on many threads - but no doubt the march of progress will see to that

It is true, Pip Pip, that as soon as we saw your registration - we knew your posts were going to be liked. You will also find a level of 'joshing' in here - but always polite. Non polite gets you turfed out onto the wing.

Hello herostratus. Just to show that we do not discriminate against our antipodal cousins. Welcome to the Cabin, on the basis that I do not recall seeing your name on the passenger list. Apologies if you have been overlooked.
Hi, I am new to the forum but have been following the Ukraine war since the start and I am having the same problem as Herostratus, I cannot see the "like" button on any forums. I am mostly a lurker but from time to time would like to acknowledge someones post. Do I need to do something to enable the button?

Hello talby33 and welcome to the Cabin of PPRuNe.
We have limits on new accounts to ward off 'Bots' placing adverts and scams before we (the Moderators) have time to kick them out the door. Please respond to a post with a helpful comment and, perhaps a related experience of yours. In short order you will have posted enough for us to know that you are real and the restrictions are then lifted.
By all means use the 'Odds n Sods' thread to introduce yourself. Have you been lurking for long? Are you Pax or 'trade' staff?

Thanks SOS, sorry I am not air staff in any way, it's just that this is the best place I've found to follow the events in Ukraine. I'll see if I can find some useful comments to make. Slava Ukraini.
