Possibly

I already 'like' most of the blogs and questions I read. However, I have noticed that this is not a standard practice for many readers. 

It is so easy to pay it forward with 'likes'.

Probably.

and I like this question.

Good morning Richie. I don't think it matters, if I really like a post I hit it, otherwise I don't.

 Good morning Richie. I have to agree with you.

I still think of ''upvote'' as ''like''= support and press it often. 

Richie Alan Naggar - that's interesting observartion - and you may be right.

AR should experiment this.

I use it plenty so moving it would not change my patterns.

Probably, I try to like blogs that I think are worthy of it, but don't always remember to do it.

I really don't care one way or another. 

It would make no difference

I never thought about it.  It would be nice if it didn't take so long to register when you do click it. 

Yes,

I would forget less times to like  A

No, when I like a blog or question I "Like" it.

Yes  -  I often forget to go back to the like button.

Richie,
Probably a good idea. I think there is a lot of unwritten AR culture of when you are expected to like or reply to comments, etc.

It wouldn't make a difference to me.  I never noticed the inconvenience.  Now, I'll have to start paying attention.

YES! And I would say less. Probably not a lot less, but . . .

I wish ALL comments could be 'liked'.

Interesting..I didn't think about the convenience of that order, but now that you mention it...maybe. But I push 'like" anyway on what I like...and I liked this question, Richie.

yes- I forget about liking blogs and comments!

Maybe, they should run an A/B split test and see! For me I don't think I would honestly, not part of my habit and it is highly unlikely to change.

Likely.  :)

Yes. Great isea

Yes, absolutely! I often like a post, but forget after I write my comment. I thought it was a senior moment! :-)

It doesnt matter, if i LIKE it i will go find it to use it. 

Not an issue. I typically <Like> a blog, if I <Comment>.

I hadn't thought about it till now, Richie. You may have something there, as I've found sometimes I've gone back to a post specifically to like it because I forgot after I left a comment.

It would not make a difference.

No.
