There needs to be a "Dislike" option along with the "Like" option.

For me it isn't bravado. It's an opinion that comes from watching society go from common sense to being what I consider ridiculous in a quest to assure feelings are not hurt. Before retirement managing 240 employees in my department the opportunity to meet face to face with an employee that had a grievance was always welcomed.

Can't do that here so the best available is to post an opinion & wait for an opinion by another poster.

What is your opinion of wanting a button to show non agreement of any given topic or simply posting a written response to what you don't agree with?

I'm all for a dislike feature. I wanna know who doesn't like me so I can get some payback.

I'm sure you posted this in jest - but that is exactly why dislike buttons cause problems - people do take personally somebody disliking or even disagreeing , with what they said i n their post as disliking them - rather than just disagreeing with what they said in that post

and then start payback disliking/ disagreeing with what the other person says in any post.

it gets misused and in forums I have seen it on, then admin removes it. As matrix said and others, including me, have described.
 

Some of it could be a clash of styles: deer camp vs. tea room. Today a slice of society has fingers that fit the handles of those 6 ounce China cups, while others... not so much.

That may be in some cases, but I am the outlier. I tend to temper my comments on line, lest I get banned. In a real face to face situations, I can be quite argumentative over many topics discussed on this online forum.

That goes for me as well. I say, if you don't like what I have to say, don't listen. If you don't like what I write, don't read it. And even if you don't like me as a person, don't bother to ask me if I care. I don't. I'll still be nice to everyone as that is a big part of who I am. But I won't get all butt-hurt if someone doesn't like me. I have better things to do.
