Should ZeniMax bring back the LOL reaction button for these forums?

Hello, everyone...I'm Shedelin, Lord Arena25's scribe. My master and I have been banished from the game due to a lack of available disk space, but quoting the comedian John Oliver: "Like celebrity death hoaxes, we'll continue to pop up on the forums until such time as we can be back online."
Today's topic is about the forums. Specifically, the LOL reaction button that was included here on the forums when this game launched. The LOL reaction button was included, along with the Insightful, Awesome, and Agree reaction buttons, at the start of the game here on the forums. Since that time, the LOL reaction button has since been removed.
However, I, and probably Lord Arena25, has been wondering: Would you support bringing back the LOL reaction button?
My opinion: I would love to bring back the LOL reaction button. There was no reason for it to be removed in the first place, except of course because no one likes humor anymore.
So, I ask you all now...would you support bringing back the LOL reaction button?
Begin the discussion/debate...now!

So yes, please bring back the LOL so I don't have to lend them undeserved dignity with a response. -

No matter how well you played,when the game is over,the king and pawn go back in the same box.
Be careful what you ask for from zo$, you always get punished.

WldKarde✭✭✭✭✭Though I do indeed miss the LOL button, it was unfortunately abused and thus taken away.
Another example of why we just can't have good things on these forums due to our inability to play nicely with others
As a side note, I like your idea of this being a pole @Gidorick
I just don't have faith that the children would behave...heck I might not be able to resist the temptation to vote LOL either from time to time

When they took LoL away it was stated in the forums Insightful was the new Lol... but that was awhile ago and I believe some people still use it as such and many use insightful for what it is for.
It wasn't chosen because it was "closest" to Lol, it's because generally people use insightful less so it could be less confused with being legitamate.
Wow, forum politics... weird. -
Runaan✭✭✭✭I like the concept of LoL and all that... but...
Isn't Insightful the new LOL ?
There you go, that was insightful.

I don't remember there being a consensus on that. I've been using awesome as an "lol" button.What ESO really needs is an Auction Horse.

It was awhile ago and the proposal was made by one of the regular forum trolls of the time. I wouldn't say it was a real consensus more of a haha isn't that funny let's do that by a few other people in the thread. Good memory though @MissBizzPUG Life - the true test of your skill

I don't see an issue with it even if it was misused a bit. At least you earn badges and get forum points and recognition from it. And awesome can also be misused just as bad.
I think the LOL button should come back. Hell, some people find the most macabre and disturbing things funny. Lets not dictate what is or isn't funny to people.
I doubt being laughed at ever really hurt anyone.PC - @Taisynn - NA - CP 268

arena25✭✭✭✭✭Hi, guys, Lord Arena25 here.
A very interesting choice that my scribe put up here...although, my scribe is a bit more of a prankster, so I can see why he supports the LOL button (literally...I caught my scribe putting salt into my juice this morning).
However, my scribe makes a very good point...in my opinion, I think the LOL button was taken away because no one likes humor anymore.
However, if I'm wrong, correct me on that.
I'll be back on later when I can be bothered.

I would love to see a "Wrobel" post if that button got added"In the Storyteller's name, I stand upon the bones of the world. I drink in the promise and power of nature's law, and breathe out my thanks."
