    I just realized that I have been confused with the "like" and "unlike" and have accidently marked unlike on several posts that I meant to mark as like.

    When clicked it switched to say unlike and I thought that meant I marked it unlike so I'd click it again so it said like....which means I marked them as unlike. Hahaha.

    I don't recall the posts I've marked that on so just wanted to throw out a blanket "sorry about that" in case anyone thought I was being an nice person. Lol

    Here, I believe"Unlike" just means you accidentally "liked a post and then decided against it, whether it was an accident or regret.

    Here I do not believe there is any difference between "Unliked" posts ant "not liked" posts. A moderator such as @Tideland Prius could confirm that.

    I like it, and looks like this:

    "Unlike" it, and my like disappears, and "Unlike" button reverts to "Like":

    Nah, you're the most even tempered diplomatic member here. 57K posts erodes off all the rough edges, lol.

    @Mendel Leisk 's got it with the screenshots. The "unlike" really means "remove Like". So it doesn't mean you hate the post, it just means.... you no longer like it (ha!). Don't worry about it.

    Unlike dislike, unlike undoes like. If you had disliked, you would need an undislike to undo the dislike.

    Hmmm., you mean I have hitting unlike on all those posts for all those years -- and nada?

    Hey, what happened to my trophies? did Danny take them all back and melt them down for the silver value?
