If they moved the like button to the left side it would be better for us righties. My right thumb seems to find it on a regular basis.
Do you lefties (left handed people) have as much trouble as us righties?
Had to clarify or the thread would have been high jacked.

Be honest, deep down inside you really did "Like" Tweety's post!
I wouldn't worry, it's not the end of the world , I'm sure Jazz will still "Like" you.
What a crisis!

No need, we already have dml, the self appointed arbitrer of all things BS and fake news, unless of course it supports his left wing views, then anything goes.

If I like any of forages posts, it mostly out of sympathy for him, sort of like a lost puppy or something.

It's true, same here. Kindness can go a long way...but "lost puppy"? That's really cute and terribly kind.
The spirit of goodwill on this site is almost overwhelming at times.

If you would stop "pushing people's buttons", it would not happen.
Too polarized, too political, too religious, no one is prepared to negotiate.

That's exactly why the poster started the thread. Polarization
The "Like" button keeps the herd intact and provides encouragement. There's an evident pattern amongst a group of posters you can count on to "Like" a post simply based on the who the poster is, no matter what the content.

Should take away the like button and make people explain their support or lack of it in a sentence or two.
Some on on this site are limited to very lame "I hate you" "take your ball and go home" kind of responses, which indicates their level of thought and ability.

If it pisses you off, then I would conclude that you are a person that would negotiate your position. If not, then you have the mentality of a judge, and we are both then left with the options of ignoring, or sticking it to each other.
I prefer the first of the three. I hope you agree.
Even though I never like being bothered by a land man, I'll give them a few minutes of my time before I'll ask them for a thousand bucks, if they want to continue in negotiations!

No. I started the thread because I am not fond of making the mistake due to its position, of agreeing with something I don’t agree with. I guess you think that’s polarizing?

I probably abuse the like button more than necessary.
But for the most part I consider the most important use to be Acknowledging the value of comments by posters Who I normally disagree with.
If it is someone I normally find myself on the same side as, I consider the like to be implied, so often don't bother.
But, when Chuck, DML, Forage, tweety etc. say something really profound, I always make a specific point of swallowing my pride and Liking the post.
I note that the favour is rarely if ever reciprocated, but perhaps that only indicates that I've never said anything profound?

I'm guessing they have never coughed up the money just to talk or have they?
We had a well go in that I didnt really want but 3 neighbours really didnt want it and caused quite a stink and went to arbitration over about a year. They kept wanting me to sign this or that and was never ending so I told him dont come unless you are bringing supper for the family. Ate lots of pizza that winter! He did also give me $250 for bothering me another time.

I did have an exclamation point after that comment.
Common practice in this area is $500.00. They don't balk at that. Everyone else is being paid for their time in the process. There is no reason as a landowner that an hour of your time shouldn't be compensated for something you weren't asking to be involved in.
In one case with a landman, we received $1500. We only did that because, as a perfect comparison with Lying Ted Cruz: Why do Texans have an automatic dislike for Senator Cruz? Answer: It saves time. We didn't like one thing the landman was saying in his first free minutes of our time. Hence, if you want to continue, ... it was paid.
Normally, we don't ask anything for time if the Company is asking for a lease on our property. Thus the reason for the first few free minutes to quickly find out what is their plan. If all they are after is a flowline that has no annual rents, then they had better be as creative as we can be.
Never been to arbitration in twenty years, and two hundred signings. If only Agriville farmers would give a little, to get a little, but mostly it's a fat chance. Sorry, if you find this, "judgmental".
