    Orestes has a big one.

    So many threads on thanks at the moment. Has boards got enough room for all these egos? :D

    This thread is proving very unhelpful, its also showing up a lot of people as assholes.

    Awful idea. You already get people posting complete usless crap trying to be funny to get thanks, far too much of that already

    if it's useless crap it's useless crap, i don't think the thanks has anything to do with it.
    i think the really funny folk get a hard time for being funny, just because they get more thanks than other people, for actually being funny!

    And there are witty posters in After Hours who don't realy give advice but are capable of funny posts and get loads of thanks. I'm thinking Pighead & possibly Javaboy here. Great posters but do they give advice outside After Hours? Don't think so...

    Your thanks count is not your post count or something like that.

    I think you raised a good point but it won't realy work.

    Like I respond to a poster with good advice I might 2-3 thanks.
    If I start a thread in After Hours rating about Fianna Fail I might get 10 or more thanks.

    So realy, I don't judge thanks as a way of seeing who is a helpful poster. They are posters over in Work forum and State Benefits who give great advice but get feck all thanks.

    And there are witty posters in After Hours who don't realy give advice but are capable of funny posts and get loads of thanks. I'm thinking Pighead & possibly Javaboy here. Great posters but do they give advice outside After Hours? Don't think so...
    what a crock of sh1t.

    after hours and work/state benefits are completely different places. you will NEVER find a post in after hours that was thanked for it's genuine good advice! why? because after hours isn't for fcuking advice. if the tight arses over in politics dont thank people, so be it, but that's not a problem with the system, it's a problem with the user.

    You made the statement, not me. I'm contradicting it. Up to you to prove it.

    Sorry, I know it's a politics request for substantiation.
