personally i could care less about the fail button...if people are that upset about it being taken away, maybe its time for some people to step away from their computer and discover the outside world, theres so much to do out there to occupy your time instead of going through posts and failing people so you can jump on the bandwagon.

I think a good compromise would be to keep fails forth NSFW section. That section needs to have quality posts for sure. In all other sections we could have a thumbs up 'like' or 'diskike' feature similar to YouTube. These would not count toward any kind of record, but would just point to the quality of the post without being too derogatory.

Something like "35 users liked this post"


'Thanks' if you support this idea. 'fail' if you.....nevermind.

What's the significance in thanks if we can't fail?

Both measures will lose its meaning

seriously now, if the fail button was removed because of a few cry babies then we need to bring it back. those who care/cry about fails are literally placing fails on a pedestal. these are FAILS on the INTERNET from RANDOM people. give your head a shake if fails really rattle you that much.

side note: 75% in favour of fail button as of this post

I think for someone to be able to use the fail button, they should be forced to enter a reply/reason/rebuttle argument.

That would cut out the little kids who play fail-tag in some threads.

if someone is complaining they are getting failed too many times, they should make less "fail-worthy" posts.

abuse of the fail button gets investigated by mod's already so why remove it completely?

everyone gets failed on here at least once, get over it - it's the internet

I got failed for a grammer error, kind of petty but I dont give a fuck. I havent been around long enough to know how great or how shitty it was, but I did like the idea when I figured out what it was all about

To be fair, far more people fail for a shitty video than thank for a good one lol

I'm not going to thank a mediocre video and I will fail a shitty one... as much as thanking a good one. Does that mean any video with no thanks on it now I shouldn't watch?

I've skipped many a video due to the fails.. .and I thank the Fail button for it.

Berz out.

I'm just saying that RS survived for nearly 10 years without the fail button.

who cares, if the failer doesn't have the courtesy to offer up an explanation as to why they disagreed with your post and failed it why take it seriously? they are just tryin to stir the pot.
I'll admit I've failed people just for the hell of it and I'll do it again. Why? Why not after all its just the internet and I'm one of the assholes in it so get over yourself ya whiny bitches.
