Is there an etiquette on what situations dislike button should be used?

[decemberends 1881]

As for my opinion things like this are only used when things are too obvious or when you can tell whether hes/shes following the guidelines or not as we consider others lack of explanation due to being a new to the forum and many more, thats why its now different compared today.

[scofield64 943]

I think the dislike button are used when someone post a comment that is not related to the topic, or his/her post has no meaning regarding this forum that's when the dislike button are used.

The best way to be fair is to look at the post objectively and make sure that you have a valid reason for giving a negative point to that member. You should also make sure that you are not giving bad reputations for no reason.

[Abuhassan 89]

Everyone wants to be issued with a good likes rather than bad likes but some post deserves nothing rather than bad likes because of the content of the post violate the guidelines of the forum we shouldn't feel bad because our post is rated with bad likes rather we should improve the quality of our post in delivering quality services.

[Farsa fat 328]

I think we can used the dislike button to express that the information the person is trying to delivered or pass to people is wrong or not correct or It is just a Spam post.

[DS#SAQii 1114]

Obviously, everyone must have etiquettes of giving reactions on a post. First of all we should read the post and then we should give positive or negative reaction accordingly. If the information is useful and you can use it in any situation of your life you should react positively and motivate the members. Giving negative reaction without any reason is unacceptable and unethical. We should give reactions fairly.

I am giving bad reputation or negative rate when someone posted less than 100 characters, spamming, plagiarizing, and also who translated their local language to english using translator because it misleading information and it looks like jumbled words. To avoid this, let us not do you think it is a violation

[jackycrypto485 1055]

I personally do not use the dislike button except in a few cases, I do not want to rush to judge people, maybe I did not understand the posts well or I misunderstood, also I want to give them a second chance so that they do not despair, I use this button when I see that the post Really bad and deserves a bad reaction.

[Pongs cutie 516]

In my perspective, the right usage of a dislike button is when you saw someone posted that possesses a nonsense content or doesn't even have the slightest relevance to that certain topic or to the forum and also for those members who keep on breaking the rules.

Hi friend you are right from your side but when newbies enters in this forum they make mistake while commenting they sometime speak out of topic after getting familiar they improve it so before giving a person a bad reputation we must first check that whether the person is newbie or not

[Bruno52 1141]

I think the dislike button was made for us to easily identify bad posts as dislikes should be given to posts which break the rules of the forum or to irrelevant content and this will also help the admins to ban spammers in the forum.

[Browser 641]

Bro, I believe these is clear enough to understand if you don't like the reply the person submitted skip his or reply it might be useful to another. 

[Jat Ala 377]

After rules and regulations that you have to be followed for the post, there are opinions everyone have, with there mindset and that is changed to everyone, so if someone like your post yiyr words that mean they like your thinking in others they don't like, the degree of disliking decides by the amounts of negative reputation given to you 

[Abuzar hashmi 544]

If spam had a separate option, it would be a bit strange. Then everyone would be worried that no one would spam in vain on his account.This forum provides us the negative or positive reputation points so that which post deserves positive or which post deserves negative points.

[laxpels009 83]

Some people constantly vote for bad reputation. These should be detected and removed from here. They do it on purpose

[Jonson Smith 343]

I will say that I will look at the posts of those who post well and then comment.  And I think this is completely personal.

[Mridul Rahman 1058]

On the basis of our knowledge and if we are sure that the information creator shared is irrelevant. Like he knows but still asks for it. We can give those bad reputation. As mods and admins said that this forum less than 100 words in one topic is not acceptable. Many newbies asks for it just in one sentence. But we shouldn't ask for it before trying to gather more information about it. Then we can ask for perspectives. So we can give bad reputation to those as a chance to reconsider himself.

[Abdulrahman3 1252]

The dislike button was put in place for two main reasons: the first is to distinguish good content from bad, and the second is to know which accounts are always posting low-quality content in order to be banned. These things mediators cannot know themselves so they rely on evaluations to determine that, and if one of them puts negative assessments for insufficient reasons, certainly not all members are.

[huesca123 946]

@rekter The negative rate points are used for crappy posts that dont say or mean anything constructive towards the Forum. If you see a post that is only gibberish, doesnt make sense or is obviously a scam / spam, use the negative rate button. You can also " Report " the post to the Admin / Mods. We cant always depend on the Admin / Mods to keep the Forum clean of garbage, its our duty as well to do our part in keeping the Forum free of rubbish.

I myself haven't seen an official consensus on how exactly how people should use these.

 

Likes:

 

It's pretty easy to justify the use of likes, everyone seems to like them and people are giving them away like a candy, and no one bats an eye if it's given for a good reason or not. Does that devalue them? I think so, as if they had value in the first place because they are just magic internet points that don't matter. Not yet anyway. 

 

Dislikes:

And then there are dislikes. These act as an anti-reputation. And almost no one doesn't seem to give one for a bad post. Why is that? Is it because it's hard for us to suddenly know what determines a bad post, even though we know how to give likes to good posts? So my question is, what are they for? Punishing people for bad quality? It works only we want more quality as a group and dislike everything that doesn't contribute to forum. And people get angry if you give them. Why does giving them suddenly matter more then giving likes? We don't have to justify giving likes, so why do we need to justify dislikes?

 

Picture itself says that it can be given for a spam, but there's already report spam button so i am not sure why should be use dislikes instead of this?

This is the previous rating system I guess. Now, we could possibly give a post an rating of -5 up to +5. If you found the topic is useful for you then you could give it a +5 rating and if not then you could just leave it there or give it some negative rating. This is how the new rating system works.

You are right we can give negative reactions for thus persons or members who are posting missed informative posts, and also for spamming and copy pasting posts and comments to, and they will know it they are doing bad things.

[entrepreneur 634]

These emojis got removed but you can now use rating based on a scale from -5 to +5 and this is much better and more accurate in my honest opinion.

[tienda 8776]

I know you are talking about the old method. Now with the new system payment adding to be paid for doing react they have changed the React method about positive and negative button. So now we have from +1 to +5 as option to react positively or from -1 to -5 to react negatively. 

[Hamza 2.2 631]

On the off chance that the comments or posts that we don't care for, we are allowed to give awful reputations yet we need to extremely cautious prior to giving such kind of notorieties. On the off chance that the post or comment isn't meriting the awful reputation, it will make us the ideal possibility to get notice focuses.

[Viscount 1357]

For what I have known, there is none. It is just if the post's quality is bad or does not make any sense then you give them a dislike or negative reaction. Or somehow you disagree with the member with their opinion.
