prob already considered this but a feature to click a post and show Like/Dislike type display might be good. This way people could express thumbs up thumbs down on topic without having to comment. This could show total number of like/dislike and clicking on it could show list of folks who have clicked.

Of course you'd probably want to call it "Agree/Disagree", or Happyface/Sadface emoji so as not to be using Facebooks nomenclature

Anyways, thought it was good interactive way to avoid spam and still show members opinions

Sorry but this has been suggested many times before and rejected all the time.
It would only encourage people to spam even more just go get "likes".

We are not on facebook.
