Hey, so one minor change that could be applied to the like button is when you hover over "new likes recieved" it should dissapear much like Facebook does with notifications. You shouldn't have to go to your likes to make it dissapear. Just my two cents
I don't really care about the notifications, when i'm bored i like to go through and see what's up, other then that i don't mind seeing a blue arrow with a number above
I agree 100%. The new notifications system is very annoying. I only want to see how many PM's I have. I couldn't care less about the rest of the notifications, and it's annoying to have to click on them to clear it.
Another annoying thing: When you "like" a comment and it automatically scrolls you back up to the top of the thread. What is the point of that?!?
