Has that been there a while, and I just missed it? What's it for?

It's new. I'm still experimenting with how to best utilize it. The purpose is to thank people for making quality posts.

Great idea... but based on observation alone you'd get a lot more use for one that serves the purpose of criticizing or making fun of someone else's post. :p

I thanked someone in another thread. You can "unthank" the post, but once you leave that thread, it's there and you can't take it back.

And it doesn't tell you who clicked thanks.

Interesting.

As long as you can fix the indent thing for thanked post, it would be great. I am a member of another board that uses the thanks system, and when you thank them, their name shows up under their post along with whoever else thanked them for that post. I like the concept Freak.

In concept I also like the idea. My only concern is that it may turn into a competition as to who can compile the most thanks, which would take away from the sincerity of its purpose. (not that we have any competitive posters on this board... cough, cough)

Lol, I am sure that OE and Mania are already starting their "thanks padding" threads:)

Can you post a screenshot of what you are seeing?

I'm on the site via Mobile 95% of the time, so you won't be getting thanks from me guys, sorry.

Cool concept, though

I took out the names of those who thanked the post. I don't want to see a big long list of names under every thanked post.

Seems like a good way to track posts you may want to read again in the future as well.
