I do not see why, when those threads show up, a mod never immediately chimes in with the actual answer:

Having "like" or "thanks" buttons isn't a big deal. I'm sure BigT could set it up.

It would be easy to put it into the software when you're originally writing it, but after it's written and in actual use, adding it on after the fact requires redoing the entire database structure. No, BigTard could not set it up. He does trivial browser add-on scripts, not major server-side database stuff. Very few people are actually qualified to do that sort of thing without permanently fucking up the entire system.

That would be a welcome relief from the Dopers parading into the thread to declare, "We are the smartest, hippest people on the planet! A 'like' button is beneath us! We are serious intellectuals, and we use WORDS! Now let's get back to discussing The Orville and starting TMI threads about anal fissures."
