I can’t use buttons but if I could I’d like me a “fair enough” button
A non-hostile, non-sarcastic and convenient way to end arguments. We can laugh about "you're supposed to hate everyone on the Codex" buuuut it might actually might be a nice gesture towards depolarizing the incessant rancor. Support 100%.
A fair enough button doesn't get added just because you want a fair enough button. Someone needs to come up with an image. Then I need to care enough to add it.

Gonna be honest, it's that last one that's usually the problem.
Can confirm, I even offered to pay for the Kant button but it did not make a difference

I would prefer to discuss this privately with DarkUnderlord should he be interested. I don't think anything good can come from discussing this publically

The okily dokily button is for humoring boomer posts. DU fucked up. It was supposed to be named Okily dokily, boomerino!
It's always interesting to hear how people interpret buttons

What does this button mean to you guys?

called "when words are not enough".

I've always taken it to mean that the situation is ridiculous beyond description. Or some form of that concept. It's context sensitive.
"Balanced" button and Sawyer makes a lot of sense. Did I miss something about Chris Avellone, is he ridiculous beyond description like Sawyer is "balanced"?

Or I'm completely wrong.
Buttons are a form of expression, they can mean different things to different people

I like the
rating_agenda.png
acknowledge user's agenda button, it's so vague it's great. My favorite interpretation of it: "I hear what you're saying, but I don't agree". I sometimes use it that way, but most times I use it as a "yeah right, I don't believe you". I don't think there is one correct meaning tbh, but that's part of the fun

"acknowledge user's agenda button" - i give it to shills who want to insert themselves into a discussion presenting themselves as objective interlocutor.
It's like "Come on guys, you are ridiculous [Puts three pages why you should like what he wants you to like]"

It's for rating good music, or when someone posts particularly flowery (or blunt) prose.

I just use the parrot for parrot posts and when I could go either way (better question is why do we only have two variations).

Yeah, indecisivness is p. decent interpretation of the parrot button, I also tend to see it as "I could go either way" type of thing. Some people seem to use it to indicate that a person is "parroting" some talking points though, so I guess it could also overlap with the NPC button depending on the context.

Please do not teach your parrots to say antisemitic insults. That would be very bad.
