What is Reaction score?

A count of how many times someone has reacted to a post you have made, as in a like, a heart eyes, a sad face, etc.

One thing, this may be in here, but I collapse the sections I don't post in, like the Gadgets section, Archives, etc but every time I come back to the site, they're "un"collapsed

Put them on ignore. (Well that is at least how I read it’s supposed to work)

We took them out before because some people decided it was going to be a popularity contest. With one person even creating another account so they could just like their own posts. (I kid you not)

Wow! I had no idea! I do think that they're often a measure of credibility.

Wow! Unbelievable. I do think that they're often a measure of credibility.

With 6 "Like" options now, I'm not sure how valuable the total count is anymore.

I somewhat agree with this statement if all forums here were strictly technical. However, the non technical forums, especially The Pit, skew that.

I just tested this on your post. The first 3 Like options add to your reaction count but the laste three don't.

Man, ain't that the truth. IMHO Likes from the Pit shouldn't count.

Yeah I saw that! I assumed that is what you were doing.
Yeah by default the first 3 only count as +1.

How do you ignore a whole section?

How do you ignore a whole section?

Go to the landing page of the main sub forum you wish to ignore. So if you wanted to ignore the directv forum: Click on that sub forum from the main list. You will see ignore up at the top right. Click it. Uncheck the boxes as per how you like things.

You can do the same on a per thread basis.

I just edited the reaction scores a bit.

EDIT: I should state that I edited the way they work, now wow and sad give a +1. I did not edit someones actual score.

I was looking for those controls and then realized it's probably only available to moderators.

I tried that with The BackRoom, but it still shows up at the top of The Pub:

Yeah, if not people would have their likes set to 1000 points for each like, especially the ones that post just to get likes.

I have a question is the side bar going to stay on the right side or is it going to go back to the left or is there going to be a choice setting, I don't like it on the right it just seems strange to me I guess.
