Many FReepers put a lot of effort into thoughtful and informative posts but with so many of these types of posts there are not enough hours in the day to respond to them all.

It would be nice if there was a LIKE button to acknowledge a good post, but this site hasn't been upgraded since the 1990s so not expecting that anytime soon.

And this is true. After starting to respond to people who have replied to me in this thread, I started to become alarmed that I may have bitten off more than I can chew!

By advocating that everyone deserves a response, I have effectively committed myself to a lot of work when the responses get to be too many.

I hope I will not be overwhelmed.

And this is exactly right. Of course if there was such a feature, I can see myself getting loads of downvotes for some of the controversial topics I discuss. :)

It would be a nice feature to be added to Free Republic, but this would have to be something the Robinsons would have to decide. It may not be worth the trouble it would take to add it to the existing system.

Yes, a like button would be nice...

I don’t post unless I think it will add something because I feel like additional posts take up space on servers. Otherwise I would thank people and 👍 people, etc., with much more abandon!

My apologies to all the people whose posts I appreciated and didn’t respond to and for the one person who DMed me and I didn’t notice for like 18 months and so did not respond....
