I perceived this forum lacks the basic feature of acknowledging fellow codexers' display of perceptive skill with a single button, and this must needs change.

The perception of such need struck me when reading this quality post. Surely you all reckon an agree rating is unfit for the situation -expressing agreement with an observation merely states the percept is shared, not the quality thereof; of course, an informative rating makes only sense when the codexer writes something previously unknown, which was not the case here.
Dear Tom Selleck deserves a [PERCEPTION] rating, and he's walking away without any commendment due to our parade's lack of diversity. There are many other instances when this rating would be the most proper one; v.g. when someone states that Georgians aren't white, this fact demands no agreement since its truthfulness is independent of the subject's alienation but merits the appreciation of the highly skilled perception of the speaker.
Without the proper means of expression, the freedom of speech may materially be in danger albeit its formal recognition in this forum.

Of course the Codex hosts highly perceptive individuals who would quickly make an ironic use of the rating equalizing it to a perception fail, but this shouldn't be an obstacle to respond to such peremptoriness (maybe a middle ground solution conveying both meanings would be ?? PERCEPTION ??). No way to express the outcome of a skill check in a forum but quoting a whole post and typing feels as weary as an inventory without item stacks.

That was more of an [Intelligence] check.

OP needs to post this in the appropriate thread. I guess they failed their perception check.
