The heart symbol

On SZ.com forums is it meant to mean that you “like” the content of what someone posted or to show support for them around what they posted. Like if someone posts something terrible happening to them, you’re technically “liking” that by pressing the heart.

Both, according to the situation. Or depending on the situation.

I also use it to show affection and support for community members who I care about.

I always had that issue on facebook when I used to use it as well. The like button was confusing like that back when thats all they had.

I sometimes use our like to show approval and other times, mostly in my own topics, to acknowledge the persons post and that I have read it.

@shutterbug @77nick77 Yeah, that’s what I thought. It varies.

@Bowens
I do that as acknowledgment as well. On my own posts. I either reply or do that.

Good time for me to tell you that you’re awesome?

Hey, thanks for saying that. I guess we are all pretty awesome for facing this disease even those who’ve commuted suicide. What, in particular, makes you say that though?

You keep coming back and you may get knocked down but don’t stay down. Having a bad day doesn’t stop you from encouraging others here to have a good day.

BTW, I’m a bit notorious for being brutally honest so if I really thought you were a douche I would just straight up say so (and get swatted by @rogueone who is in fine form this evening).

Dang, thanks @shutterbug. I had a period where I was in a bad relationship and did act like a douche to people but that’s in the past. Btw I think you’re funny. That post about gummy bears cracked me up.

Everyone goes through a bad spell, my man. It’s the people who are having bad lives you need to avoid.

I use it as a like and also an acknowledgement. So it can be a support button.

I think people need to be careful when using it sometimes bc what if you used it and it wasn’t appropriate to use the like.

Oh, you mean like me admiring how nice you look in Daisy Duke shorts???

I will use it to like or agree with someone and also to use it to support someone

I use it for support too. Sometimes if someone posts something and I don’t have a response I’ll like it instead.
