Don't you think Hubpages should have a "like" button on comments?
No, I don't think it's necessary to have a "like" button on hub comments. Personally, I think that the article itself should be the focus for visitors. Comments are usually directed to the writer of the hub who then responds to them (or not).
The comment section of a hub is not meant to be a forum for discussion, and whether or not commenters like each others comments is not important. There are forums here on Hubpages where members can discuss and express their likes, dislikes freely. I don't think that a "like" button on individual hub comments would be appropriate.
Normally I'd say yes but with the present abuse of the "Vote Down" button being allowed I'd have to say no.

I am with you on this elayne.... Would love to see a like button here..
Nope. Hubpages is not facebook. Besides, many of the not so charming users and writers will find themselves not being liked by others.

I was looking at my stats today and noticed one of my hubs (Why Has Being A Liberal Become A Bad Thing?) had a nice spike in views. Found the source of this spike was a racist website. Can't find the link in there as most of the site is only password accessible. Really don't want...

I was just wanting a few other opinions about this type of unfeatured hub. Lately I have had like three go on the unfeatured list due to lack of traffic. They are some of my first posts here, and I am posting them back on social media sites, but I'm not so sure it's important to me at this point to...

HP probably has no problem with the concept. My guess is that implementation is just too much labor-intensive programming for them right now. They are probably buried in existing projects as it is.
