Ok so why the hell would you get rid of LOLS? This was how people would know if they were funny people and posted hilarious content, not some rating on your trolls. You've made a dangerous enemy today ZOS...

    They wanted us to use 'insightful' instead, so they took it away.

    This is the biggest nerf to forum XP yet. Give us back our LOLs, ZOS.

    Insightful doesn't mark hilarious and good content. It just marks that you're some waste of life that did some random philosophy stuff for your college degree.

    I guess you didnt see the last thread on this same topic. They locked it because it was too fun.

    I am of the firm opinion that subtracting "raging stupidity" from anyone's voice can only cause them to sound more like myself.

    Serious answer is that the forum didn't have a disagree button like other similar forums have so people used LOLs instead.

    However I can't answer why Zenimax has a problem with this, beats me. You might see 5 people like something but 100 could disagree. Maybe they want people to actually reply with their disagreement instead of just a number of people voicing it... but then they should just get rid of everything with agree, insightful ect.
