Default [request] Not quite loved characters

Now that this is where it should be, I want to propose the creation of a "like" character option instead of just love and hate.

Personally i only give a love to somone who always makes me smile whenever they're in a scene (Akio Furukawa, Isaac Dian, Boota...). And a hate to someone who i just want to die or be called out (Rolo Lamperouge, Maromi...).

Having said that, there are tons of characters who i like and want to show some love to, but i don't quite like them enough to earn a full love. So thats why i think it would be great if you were able to go halfway with people (not necessarily "like" though because thats a little too facebook).

So yeah does anybody agree with me?

I've been using this feature as like or dislike to begin with anyway. But if words like Love or Hate sounds like too much for some people, sure it's still a good idea. But then when we mark characters as liked ones.. and there's ones that you truly love (or hate).. hmm.. add another section for those? Or we should have our top character list, then we could sort them out by the priority which we like or hate the most ;O

I believe the current feature is intended to be more of a like/dislike thing anyway.

It feels a little pedantic to have like as well as love to be honest. I agree with r-18, if you don't have a particularly strong feeling for a character then is it really worth listing them?

I would agree. If you dont have some sort of a strong love/hate for the character, then just don't list it. Keeping features simple is key. When they have so many options it is often confusing or just becomes cluttered. The blog could always be used to keep a more custom list of liked/hated characters, as well as many other criteria.

I also used it for like / dislike characters from the beginning.
Love/Hate is maby indeed to strong, but it isn't much thorn in my flesh imo...

there is always your custom lists for any possible permutation of listing you want to make.....

Thumbs down on this one.

To be quite frank, this would serve no purpose. We already have this feature. Doing anything to it would be pointless.
