“Like” = End of Discussion

I also would hit the like if i agree with the person and as a parting bye also . Sometimes i also use the thumbs up sign .

I am one of those who leave people hanging - sometimes for days - . But only because I am on and off the computer throughout the day - I am here when I am here!! Please forgive me - but as long as you are in my notifications, I should be able to get back to you! But I do think sometimes a "like" is a good way to end a conversation, at least here. It's nice to make "nice" comments at the end to be polite, but I think admin doesn't want us to give those short comments like "thank you" on all of our comments.

I personally avoid saying goodbye but would rather place an emoticon and hit like. Saying good bye does not seem to be appropriate because I am not really going away but just around the community

May because there are a lot of things shown in social media nowadays that make people want to view most of them. I'm kinda guilty myself. I just read in a few seconds on some post and just hit like and go to another posts. Its kind of different here in mylot though. The more we view on some post the more we like to comment here.

I do sometimes hit the like button when I have nothing more to add to a conversation here. It's my way of saying I've read your rsponse or comment but have nothing more to add.

I wish you to have a healthy day with your husband and kids. Say my Hi to your family and do visit here in your next time to here

I hit the like button, if there is nothing to add to conversation. I try my best to prolong the conversation because I like interaction. Putting a thumps up is also fine to end the conversation (this is in context of mylot discussions only). I many a times add icon of 'nice day', when ending a conversation here on mylot.

It will be their loss if they do not wish to continue. This is a discussion site and the more one interacts the more earnings will one see.

My grand-dad used to finish what he was saying on the phone and hang up abruptly - no goodbyes or anything - people often rang him back thinking the line had been cut off in mid conversation and he'd sometimes just do it again. Many friends often just leave parties without goodbyes. I prefer decent closure. Many online conversations just end as if the person on the other end was abducted in some way too.

Im guilty. Sorry for this. And thank you for responding to my discussions. Maybe next a thank you comment will be better than just liking. hehehehe

end of discussion - ha ha because I gave it a Like - you made a very valid point - sometimes we dont have time to join in the debate or conversation so we leave a LIKE that you know we have read. Some Lotters cannot be in so many places at once.

It actually occurred to me today that it could be seen as a "passive-aggressive" thing to do if you don't comment as well. We're here for comments, not likes! (Now don't you dare like this comment!)

I will never do that to you and I have never done that either. Maybe I 've liked a post but sometimes I have nothing to say coz I'm the last one to see it

I dont think like this. Like does not imply good bye. It means - I and you reach at the same conclusion. Likes can be used to close the discussion when you do not have sufficient time.

I like the thumbs up to use on discussions.

Doesn't make sense to me either.. If I agree with something ion that discussion I tell the person what and why I agree with.. Yeah there are those others who don't respond.. to your comments or selectively respond to some.. its like insulting people.

I feel the need to "like" this post. xD

To me it is like this. You answer back a person, they write again, and you answer, after like 6 times I think I have said it all. That is when I just hit like and leave a smiley face or a thumbs up to say thanks and I did enjoy talking. If they keep on and on I just sort of ignore them after this. There are some that I have answered more than 10 times and in the end they get off topic and that's when I stop and draw a lone.

I almost always leave a comment, unless I have too many to respond to!

Well, that's the easiest way to do instead of saying goodbye in a conversation. Anyway, I just considered it as if they say goodbye to me. It's still fine. Have a nice day friend.
