Not really, Classy, I have been popping into the Outside for a long time. I'm not a regular there, though.

I have no problem with the like button, but don't see the need to keep a tally of likes given and likes received. Then again, I've also always been against post counts in forums too, especially when they're not used in all areas of the forum. No post count in the Co-Op section where members generally help each other over a course of a month, but yet a member can post 200 quotes in a contest thread and their post count goes up. Not logical.
'Thank you' button is very helpful in just saying "thank you" to someone without a quoted reply. I use it frequently when it is available cause I don't want to load a bunch of quotes and just fill the pages with thank yous. Not a game changer, just a nice thing to have. I also use the dislike button to say "I dislike the trouble you are having but like your post" type of thing.
Of course, both of these are on a forum I frequent that is noticeably bereft of snarky or rude posts. Pretty boring in that respect and that is probably why I spend the lion's share of my time there. Not to say that ECF is snarky and rude, but with such a huge following, it can get pretty dicey around here at times!

heh heh
OK, can we haz a "Snarky" button?
All seriousness aside, the prospect of migration to a new platform for ECF is at once scary and exciting.
Is this something that will happen this year?
ETS: Shoot, Jerry beat me to it.

We'd love to do it this year, but with the amount of work that a conversion will entail, giving a firm "Yes, it'll happen this year." is wishful thinking. So, in the interest of keeping things realistic, let's just say Soon™. 
If you have found your way here because you are unable to reset your password (same thing just happened to me) the following does work. Just mouse over the word page and click.
Good luck and happy vaping!!

Maybe my post here isn't germane to the currently railroaded topic regarding general criticism of the message board software. Too bad.
It wasn't easy getting logged into ECF just now.
My attempt to log-in lead me to this stupid page.
As you can see, the idiotic excuse for programming pictured above has no provision to change the password. None of the links to my profile info worked, either. I tried it with Firefox and I tried it with IE. No dice.
I had to attempt hacking a new username account. That process recognized my email address as having been previously used and offered me the opportunity to change my password with an email. I did.
Incidentally, I changed my password and email address last June.
Stupid.

Regarding this thread's original focus, I'd like to point out that forcing everybody to wear padded underwear because some people fall down is evil IMO. An occasional email reminding everyone to be safe is a much less tyrannical approach to "security assistance."
Bring it on!
I am OTD and equal to anything you can offer up to challenge me mighty digital prowess!
LOL (-:
I do dearly love the character that threads take on after the initial question has been asked and answered!
Yup, OTD and I agree.
I'm surprised that this thread hasn't been closed yet.
Now I gotta go and set up my 100 bit password.
