ideas for our Forum's future

While I think we have a fairly good platform here, I'm interested in possibly adding some "features" but I want to get an idea of what others think about the potential features before spending much time on them. So I'd like some feedback on an Idea (with more to come no doubt) and for you to post here if you think of anything new that would be good for the forum.
Idea #1:
Should we have thumbs-up buttons (aka like buttons) on posts?
It would let people register their approval of a post generally, without having to actually post to the thread. A way of saying a little thank you, etc. I don't think we need to have dislike/thumbs-down buttons, but maybe. What do you think?
(also, could a mod 'sticky' this thread for a little while)
