    No you must be wrong 666, sure thats part of the TCN.
    Since it is a sub-forum it has a thanks button.

    Am I reading this right - certain smilies are not allowed to be used in TCN because a mod doesn't like them?

    You can use them, then he bans you.

    Back on topic. While a thanks button in TCN would be nice, people would no doubt constantly abuse it.

    That might happen, it has in other forums, but they still have thanks buttons.

    By that logic, Sarky would be the only one with a thanks button in there

    And it would be kept "new and shiney in it's original wrapper" a true one of a kind collector's item. :D

    I think anyone who is thanked should be banned for a day. That'll keep things interesting:D

    Thanks button won't happen. How about post count?

    What?
    Have you been sniffing yeast again?
    The post count in the nest is never,never,never,never,never,never,never,never, to be turned on, have you any idea the cost in bribes for me to get my post count reset if that was to happen?

    Mine would also soar exponentially. What is the going rate on bribes anyway

    I'd support turning on post count for a few days. People need to realise how much rubbish they post sometimes.

    Couldn't care less about post count but the 'thanks' feature should be switched on.

    It's just showing appreciated for a post, what harm can it do?

    Saves me having to do this:

    How about we hire the feature?

    If tCn regulars can come up with say €500 €300 (for the SSF) then it gets switched on for one year.

    I'll throw in the first €20 :)

    Why not find a different way to show appreciation a post?

    I thought I had but Tar slapped me.

    Come on, what harm a 'thanks' button?

    What other ways are there but replying and saying +1 and that just makes the thread annoying to read.

    As someone pointed out, tCn has changed massively.

    "Let's count threads.." and the like are all but gone/

    Some great threads in there these days and having the 'thanks' feature would mean even better threads I think.

    I've already +1 ed this.

    I don't see how it could hurt turning it on for a while.

    Why do you want to +1 a post in the first place? It adds nothing, no matter what form it takes.

    I don't believe having the feature will lead to better threads. It'll just lead to "post here to get thanks" threads, like it did with the reputation system before it. And then someone won't get thanked and they'll whine about it on Feedback, and that hasn't been any fun since the clamp down on lolcats.

    Complain about not getting thanks?

    Don't think I've ever actually seen that.

    Except for stupid threads some people make where they actually ask for peoples thanks, which usually results in them being told to fcuk off.

    Of course it adds something.

    You know its read / seen and agreed with.

    It helps threads flow.

    It adds to the atmosphere of a thread.

    AH is an example of that.

    Come on, join the revolution, you know you want to ;)
