One of the biggest problems on forums as you may know is 'posts boosting'. There are users who LOVE to say 'thanks' when ever they can. How can it hurt? Their post count goes up, they have nothing to loose.

There are also users who really like to express their thanks to post but don't like posting a post that looks like they're post boosting.

Then comes the moderators who have to delete people's thanks yous so a thread can look readable with out the thank yous thrown around.

Finally comes the posters of these useful posts. They have no idea how many people really like their posts if only some people say 'thanks'.



So, now we have a Thanks Button

[StevenM]

Such a thankless job.....

[mod5]

I wonder if the system will let me take thanks away from people if I dont think they deserve them.

I wonder if the system will let me take thanks away from people if I dont think they deserve them.
