Steve,

When you first enter the forum look at the bottom for a link that says "Forum Leaders" this should take you to a page of people who are the people in charge of this forum.

As for the like/dislike button, why don't you just use the star rating system for a thread which is already in place?

Only the Administrator has commented on the Forum and CLSA has indicated that they expressly do not want an actively moderated forum.

Again, that might make for good discussion on a thread specific to "moderation".

Because I do not want to rate an entire thread. I just want to be able to indicate that I like what someone is saying, without adding an entire post that says "I agree"

The same goes for dislike. It is a way to show you do not agree without getting into an argument about it.

How difficult is to add the like / dislike feature to this forum? most forums have it.
