I recently became a member and thought it was strange that there is no "Like" button.
Before I asked this question I searched to see if somebody else had already asked it, and sure enough they had but it was over 6 years ago, so I thought it more appropriate to start a new thread.
Most other forums have separate Like and Thanks buttons, but when there is only one it is usually a Like button because this can be appropriate in more instances. It is unusual to only have a Thanks button.
I could Like a post but it would not necessarily be appropriate to say Thanks. To give an example - if a post is intended to be humorous or there is a joke that not everybody might get, it would be much more appropriate to show my Like of this post rather than say Thanks. There are many more instances where Like would be more appropriate than Thanks.
If it is possible to add a Like button I am sure it will be used often.
