    What does the "thanks to" part mean? How do you do it?

    You just hit the post_thanks.gif button when you want to 'thank' someone though others use it to express their agreement with the poster.

    You have a limited amount per day just to prevent spamming

    Do you have to be a subscriber to use the thanks feature? I can't find the thanks button anywhere!

    This button: post_thanks.gif

    It's on the bottom right hand side of every post, except your own as you can't thank yourself.


    Full explanation in my sig :)

    Edit/ here's a picture:

    Thanks for your quick reply, and the picture, but that button's not coming up on my screen in any of the discussion boxes, it's just not there!

    Hmm, you may have to wait to hit 25 posts for it to become available so. One of the admins disabled some functionality for posters under 25 posts to help prevent spam.

    You won't be long reaching 25 :)

    You must be right, thanks for that. I'll just have to get posting! When I hit no.25 I'll be able to thank you...
