    I mean these things:
    These
    I saw the ability to do this on other XenForo forums, and I think it would be nice to see this implemented here, too.
    I wanted to like some comments on multiple occasions, but it sucks, that I'm not able to do it.

    And I see no point in this, besides raising your like count.

    That's the point. I feel like it's a missed opportunity, and people don't get the likes they deserve.

    We don't need a like button for profile post comments. That would just encourage more like spamming.

    Post more shit in the EoF if you want to raise your like count.

    Seriously tho, the entire point behind the like system is to make actual helpful posts stand out from other posts.

    I think I've got enough likes. No need to add more ways to get like spam.

    Running.
    Just make it not count on your likes counter and it is fine then.

    Well if that's the case, shouldn't we remove liking posts in the EoF?

    Actually yes.
    Cause ever since the like system got introduced on Temp, shitposting has spilled all over.
