IMO, the hearts can be used a couple of ways. I use them to show agreement or support with what's been said by someone or as an acknowledgement that I've read a comment that someone has directed to me.

I don't either, @sunshine45. I wish they had a thumbs down ICON...........really!!
@tends2dogs That would sink this place for good.
Hearts are positive; I've seen thumbs down elsewhere, just to be mean, on the most innocent of posts.
Some posters use them because they just don't like another poster; no sense stirring up more nonsense around here.
@Cakers3- I'm with you. I wouldn't want a thumbs down either. That's a definite negative and could lead to bad feelings and worse.
I sometimes feel bad because someone posts that a loved one died and here I am giving them hearts which I equate with "like." Somehow it just seems wrong.
But I guess there's nothing that can be done without creating a negative vibe here, which we do NOT need!

@cherry- I'm so sorry you're having problems with your arm. I hope it will go away asap! I swear, if it's not one thing, it's another, the older we get...
Feel better soon!

@sunala thanks sweetie. It is getting better I just have to not overuse it

@Cakers3 and @sunala You both make a good point about the thumbs down. This is the only forum I participate on so I have never seen the thumbs down.
I can see where it could be used just for being mean and there is often too much of that going on without it.

I don't click on them a lot. When I do click on it .....it's my way of saying "I agree" and often the other person said it much better than I did (or could) and with fewer words.

I was just reading a thread where some posters here were talking about the September 11 attacks, and how it affected them.
I wanted to acknowledge that I read the post and that I understand what they were writing about, which of course was very sad. I clicked the heart, but to me it felt like I was loving what they posted, which isn't what I meant at all.
I wish there was another way to acknowledge that we read the post and that we're terribly sorry about what the poster wrote besides clicking the heart.
Any suggestions?
I always took it to mean several things: agreement, empathy, acknowledgement of a well worded comment, support for the poster, or thanks for the added information. Take your pick. The other option is to reply.
