I use it to express I appreciate a post although I have nothing to add/say to it.

I think it doesn’t add to the forum, because I’m probably not going to both “like” and reply to a thread /contribute to the discussion. Whereas if I didn’t have the easier option, I’d probably post even a brief reply when someone has gone to the trouble of initiating a topic.

I voted don't care as it doesn't really bother me either way....most of the time I forget it's there.
Tend to agree with Rice though. I'd much prefer to read a reply than just get a thumbs up/down.

Yes!!!

It was sorely missed! Sometimes I just want to show I appreciate someone's contribution even if I don't have anything to add to it.

I’m apparently alone in feeling the like button stifles forum traffic by making us feel we’ve contributed to a discussion by adding a click.

Not sure what ''forum traffic'' has to do with it. Lots of posts saying ''I agree'' don't add any value to the forum.

That’s what I mean. When I say “traffic,” I mean actual conversations, not “I agree” or a thumbs-up.
