I think it was meant hypothetically, not stating that it would guarantee such a result. While you're right, people will continue to do that because they're stubborn or whatever, but I'm sure there are those that'll just hit like and move on.
Unless they just want to farm post count, then yeah they'll take the time to just post "+1" instead.
Whats wrong with that?
I mean arent you supposed to post on forums? In a contributing manner, sure. What does "+1" contribute to a thread above and beyond that of what a "Like" button would contribute?
If I agree with an idea, I try to come up with something more constructive than "+1". If I can't, either because I lack creativity that day or (quite simply) nothing more needs to be said, then this is where the like button would come in handy.
+1
=====
On a more serious note, I would rather read constructive posts than a bunch of one word responses. "+1", "Support" and "Profiled" could all be replaced by this feature. No need for a dislike button though. Low on bank space? Click here .

Down-voting is often is often done on a whim, because humans are humans, and some humans refuse to think before they act. Take this suggestion for example: I can see the merits to the idea including 'dislike'; however, it is a fact that the function continues to be abused on Reddit. It is impossible to enforce abuse of the system, because that is highly subjective and difficult to prove. Not to mention the additional load on top what can already be a taxing moderation role. Do I instantly hit 'dislike' on this thread because there are parts I disagree with? No, but there are some people who would.

I don't care if people hate me or the things I suggest, the only opinions that matter are those thought through enough to convince Jagex, not the players.
...and Jagex tends to listen to the majority, unless the objective is to protect the game's integrity. People get passionate about certain subjects, sometimes to a point where it gets personal - such toxicity is not necessary. If you air an unpopular opinion in a constructive manner, you should not be down-voted; however, this happens on a regular basis on Reddit. If this started to happen to you on a regular basis, I think you would begin to care.
N.B. There are many good reasons some people choose not to use Reddit. Let's not scare them away from another platform which is currently open to them.
