We used to when we supported Tapatalk. But the Garage Talk App is a different style. Sorry.

I'll see what the guys (Staff) think.

If you want a "like" button, stick to facebook.

Just one mods opinion.

This is a forum for knowledge. Not popularity of what someone thinks. Just my 2 pence.

Repeated rules violations. He was warned many times. Pushed the issue with the wrong people and lost.

I was looking at it more like an "agree" button. Though posts of "x2, x3, x4," etc works just as well. Reputation is as much knowledge as "popularity" but reading someone's posts can usually tell you enough about the person's understanding of the topic about which they're speaking. It all falls into what one member was saying how post count (thus reps and "likes") are no measure of knowledge. There are guys who have hundreds of posts and can't change a spark plug. Just Tuesday morning thoughts. I already know who the most helpful people are but I've been hanging here every day all summer, soaking up everything I can about Jeeps. Appreciate this site immensely as it has likely saved me thousands of dollars

All we can do as Admin and Mods is pass any ideas up to the owners but sadly, habe no control over the programming of the App or Full Site.

I think you guys are doing a bang up job. Tons of you guys around admin'ing and mod'ing, taking care of trolls as well as being really helpful. I was curious because some sites have it and some don't.

It has come to my attention that this came across as kinda ****ty...I apologise if that's how it sounded, it wasn't my intention.

I totally get what you're saying, but at the same time I think it's a double edged sword...Someone could post incorrect info, and people will still "like"...either believing it to be true because they don't know any better, or because "I saw it on another forum"...the way I see it is it could potentially open a whole can of worms. If it ain't broke, don't fix it, LOL

Thanks for the kudos. We try really hard to keep this train on the rails.

Ive got a site that I want to share that is pretty detailed in Cherokee suspension, but I'm not sure where to post it up.
I'll let you guys check it out and see if it's worthwhile.

Jeep Driver seemed to be a useful contributor. What happened to get him banned?

Kept insulting members anytime they had an idea or product that wasn't his.

3 of my post are under review and never posted. Why is that? They were similar to other postings in the thread. Thanks
