because using a yeah is more so giving agreance to something rather than saying you like it, you wouldn't like a car accident would you, you would nod yeah in agreement with the grievances with everyone else
But the "Yeah!" sounds even worse in that case

you do relise that on miiverse, when the user chose the little emote at the top, it changed the punctuation, ! mark for happy/shocked, ? mark for confused, ect.

Miiverse had different kinds of Yeah, with the corresponding Mii face (sad, anger, etc)

"Yeah"
"Yeah!"
"Yeah..."
I was sniped, oh shit

Part of a skin or an option would be acceptable for people who still prefer "Like" for some bizarre reason.
I'm serious, why?
Serious answers:
  • To honor Miiverse, or Nintendo's attempt at a social platform regardless of personal opinion on it.
  • To position and help differentiate GBAtemp from other internet posting platforms with upvote systems such as digg
  • Because it's charming, endearing, kinda cute
  • The blue thumbs-up + "Like" is very reminiscent of Facebook. This kind of ties into the previous reasons.
Comedy answers:
  • Because Nintendo. GBAtemp is GBA which is Nintendo, therefore Yeah!s.
  • Yeah!s are objectively better than Likes.
  • The Yeah! button has a smiley face.
 
But three buttons is just stupid
but, imagine...
making a post, then selecting a custom Yeah for the post, so everyone that see the post can only click that custom Yeah... that's a possibility

you choose the mood of said post before finally posting your post and that determined the button used

I sniped you, now you sniped me xD

This reminds me of people who want the dislike button

Like then quote the post with your reaction?

I am not suggesting to overhaul the "Like" system on the site. I think an upvote/downvote or rep system like we had in a previous revision of the site would greatly encourage helpful tutorials and answers in the Ask GBAtemp section but this is a whole other can of worms.

Just want an option to change those 4 letters of text.

for fucks sake people, think why not rather than why with shooting down ideas
