Request: Make "And 1" icon more prominent

Can this be made larger or a more distinctive color? It's a great tool to flag good posts, but it does tend to get lost in the visuals.

I don't know about you but I think it would get in the way.

Laimbeer: We might look into that. In the early And 1 days, many complained it was too big. LOL!

Were going to look at possibilities of upgrading when we discuss the forums internally later this month.

Biz Gilwalker: Probably too big.

We will see what happens.

I see so many posters making posts just to rack "And 1's" up. Either quips, or flat out begging for them. Personally I am not a fan of the thing as it seems to promote attention whores.

Yuri Vaultin: Were going to look at ways to curb this. It's mostly Off-Topic Forum Users.

Laimbeer: No problem.

And here I was thinking that I didn't make it big enough.

Nah, just by how much the OTers use it.

Why would it bother someone how much another poster uses their And1 button? Sounds to me that someone is jealous that he doesn't have 1,000 And1s much like the great posters on the OTB!

sounds to me howie does not want users to use and 1 button. not sure how cr reina feels about this, i sense some in house fighting near future.

Skaterdude: Not at all. Some users just feel the system is being abused especially by the OTers.

El MyLittlePony: We want it used but not for every single post which seems to happen on the OT Forum.

There are no in house issues either.

But who cares if it's being abused? Are people really keeping a list of who has the most And1s?

We might do something more with the feature in an upcoming update.
