I seem to remember this being afeature on the old site that seems either absent now, or I’m just an idiot.
But if people have liked my post, is there any way to see who, exactly liked it?

I’ll say a updated version of what I said in the previous thread like this
As much as I liked it. Cause it shows support and who supported certain threads and so on.
It was annoying for info posts such as rules and even my Halo canon order.
Cause even though you personally could hide them under the post. Others could see them and it heavily broke up the posts the more people who like/fav it.
Unless there is a way round that problem. I’d personally rather it say like it is
The forum team could add a feature if you ticked a box to hide the likes to your posts in general. Or hide likes for specific posts. To assist the info posts.
Plus there was a risk(though it hardly happened) if you liked a ‘bad’ post then you could get in trouble also and also get hate mail depending on how bad it is. Though the low occurrence of this happening makes it a small point.
No way currently to see who liked your post, this feature wasn’t transferred over form the old forums.
From a technical side, querying that amount of informaiton for each liked post has got to be pretty expensive. The old forums were pretty damn slow at times and I know having that enabled couldn’t have helped. Even with caching enabled, you could still hit some pretty ridiculous limits querying the database. That along with some of the points CIA391 brought up pushes me towards keeping things as they are. I like the simple counter

I was more thinking of just clicking the number and it brings u a new box- not necissarilyon the page. Like the system used on Archive, for example.

I was under the impression the old site was simply poorly optimised/ the code wasn’t as efficient as it could be. It was very reliant on high-res images, if i remember correctly. Still, at least it didn’t have an animated background like Battlelog. Those things wreck my computer.
That was part of the issue as well, but even an optimised site has problems querying large amounts of data. It could possibly work in a modal pop-up, as long as there was pagination after say every 20 names. That would limit the amount of data queried and would be self-consistent with the look and feel of the new site. Might have a poke and mock up how it might look

I like the sound of that! DuhnuhnuhnuDUHnuhnuhnuhDUHnuhnuhnuh– Ajax Man to the rescue!
This is what happens when I get spare time. Could probably have done better in photoshop, but whatever lol. Just for fun anyways

If you consider that a crappy job, then you my friend have epic skills. Well done.
