Maybe a "thumbs up/thumbs down" icon we could click on? Or smiley/frown. Something. And add it for forum posts too. I disagree with 'Like' buttons, 'thumbs ups' buttons etc on opinions because it leads to widespread abuse. People tend to vote for opinions that match their own, rather than an opinion that is well thought out. The fact is that it's all opinion. Not facts. It shouldn't be left for anybody to like/dislike that opinion. For example, I've had my score for Fosters called out by another user (I gave it a 5, I enjoy that beer immensely)...........the fact is, I couldn't give a shit what he thinks. There are a lot of garbage reviews on this site that don't mention the beer at all or any of its characteristics, would we have the right to thumbs down/dislike those reviews. Would anybody ever try a beer based on the number of likes/thumbs up it received? If somebody says that 'Beer A is great' and somebody else writes a tome saying it's not...............does it mean anything to me? No, because only I know where my taste buds may lead me (and maybe the person that says 'Beer A is great' is too lazy to write an essay on why it's great. Likes/Thumbs Ups have no more validity than the post/review being liked/thumbs upped.

Sooooooo any idea when this new site is set to launch?

I bet that was discussed this past weekend over a few pints. Why, yes it was discussed this past weekend over a few very good pints while in beautiful East Tennessee... Hmm.

One that doesn't crap out sporadically for lengthy periods of time............................................................................................................

As with the tooth fairy, Santa, and the Easter Bunny, I no longer believe in the new site. One day, though, I might see Santa on my roof, so you never know. But for now......
