So embarrassingly, I clicked "Like" on my own guide, to see what the button would do. A box popped up, and I realised it'd post to Facebook. So I clicked the "X" button and checked my Facebook to see if I had posted anything via MobaFire.

I hadn't.

Except then Joev came along and lel'd my post. Now I'm aware that you can "like" the guide itself OR the comment section of the guide by clicking the Like button, even if you try and backpeddle from doing so. I find this a little weird; both the guide/comments having two separate like functions, and the fact that even if you accidentally click the Like button, the Like goes through.

On a semi-unrelated note, 2.7k likes on my Ashe guide! :D

Sure... 'accidentally'

That's weird, seeing how the "No thanks button" should mean "No thanks".
They should just have 2 buttons, "Yes, post to Facebook" and "Yes, post to Facebook"

I've personally accidentally +scouted guides before. Everyone makes mistakes. In this instance it wasn't an accident, as I was deliberately seeing what would happen, as the like count was on 0. I was simply listing a possible scenario wherein someone would definitely not want the like to go through; ala accidental clicking.

I assume the Like button is generated on Mobafire automatically using the URL of the page you're on. (Hence, changing your guide's name will also change the url which will also reset the likes.) I guess the solution to this would be to make the URL generated ../build/guide#/ instead of the current ../build/guide-name-guide#/ as your guide# will be the same no matter what your title is. Would also need to use this same URL on the discussion pages.

Yeah, I'm guessing it wasn't changed to accommodate having a separate guide and discussion page, since it was made before they were separate. I will make a note of it.
Thanks to GrandMasterD for my sig!
