    I checked it once out of curiosity when the thanks system was first introduced, but then I sort of forgot about it until I saw this thread when I checked again.

    After much consultation with the heads of state, Stephen Hawking, and Jako8, we've come to the conclusion that Timbuk2 is infact wrong.

    You see Mr. Timbuk2, if you were correct. I'd have nearly double thanks to my post count. Two thanks for 1 post. You have the ratios the wrong way.


    Calm down now people, CALM...

    I'd like to apologize on my own behalf for removing the thanks. As it is, I can't really be bothered going back and adding it :o

    Someday I'll just thank a random post, but when will it be?.... o_O


    I'm not witty ebough to be thanked a lot. Also, I don't post nearly enough in After Hours to get the quantity of thanks.

    Ah well.

    I don't make any witty comments, therefore don't get any thanks.
    I don't check it as a result.
    Really though, I don't need appraisial from complete strangers to feel valued!!

    I would like however a 'No Thanks' button, but it only seems to be about the positive aspects..........Grr @ wanting to make people feel good about themselves =)

    I had gathered you like stripy socks and were born in 85 with powers of desuction. I admit they are most awesome.

    From your username, I gathered I don't understand anything about you at all.

    Well it's a book along that vein.



    Desuction is now my favourite word!

    Yes, I've been researching. I'm pretty sure I have Unfinished Tales upstairs somewhere... We have loads of the books outside the trilogy. My Dad and my brother were really into it for a while.

    They are more like history books than anything! My housemates copy is being used as a doorstop I think!

    I'm thinking the same. How can someone never check their thanks if they know the system exists?

  • Registered Users Posts: 8,964 ✭✭✭ToniTuddle


    Was there an option for "I only checked it once"?

    I ticked the Never+don't know how many thanks I have now. Haven't a friggin clue how many I have!

    I looked at it away back when I first started on boards due to exploring the site and what all was going on!
    Since then I haven't bothered.

    It's all about giving thanks to people! Like someones signature says :D
