    Just a thought. Over on the left where it has your name, hometown etc etc, is there a way to have the number of thanks you've received? Even a link then to show all thanked posts for that user?

    It's one of those things that you'd like to see but couldn't be bothered going to the profile etc etc.

    I really, really hope that isn't implemented in the future. Thanks-whoring is bad enough on some forums as it is, but at least they can't display their thanks number for all to see. It's fine as it is imo.

    The only thing worse than this would be animated avatars.

    I have seen it on other sites that use vbulletin, both the number of thanks and number of thanked posts. But why would you want it? Bad idea I think.

    It was in profiles when thanks were introduced first, but was removed shortly afterwards, and no harm really. It is easy to turn back on again, but I very much doubt it will be.

    It was always viewable unless I'm thinking of something else? :)

    He means in the profile bit that is beside every post you make. It was there before but it was removed to discourage thanks whoring,

    P.S. Thank this post if you like cookies.

    No need for it.. It would turn the rating into a race.
    Can you imagine it??
    My thanks are bigger than your... na na na na na....

    Switch the Beta Thanks Theme on and you get G-Rated thanks, it's a bit random though.
