Great, Chris. I'm really happy you're trying to make this work. Uh... Thanks?

Chris,
What you've suggested seems to be a pretty good compromise, but personally I think thanks and rep points are a waste of time and merely a pecker contest among users.

Seems this could easily become abused by someone registering 2 screen names, making not necessarily helpful posts but thanking themselves anyway? (BTW: Chris you look a little like BT, the musician in your avatar... if you've been told that already I apologize  )Last edited by Spin This!; 06-30-2008 at 03:05 AM. |

i've been thinking about our dilemma...
...why don't we do a "you're welcome" count instead? That way, if you know you post something useful, click the button, and there you have it.

 Like I know the thanks system was indeed just a system. . .Getting a thanks kinda made me go that extra mile on helping someone as weird as it may sound -Or would let me know that a 3-paragraph post on helping someone wouldnt have been in vain for my fingers Lol!

i agree with hippo on that last part. I have several thanks and half of them i'd say were thanks for things that weren't technical issues or anything. Just bring back the thanks in the dedicated sections and leave it off in the off-topic and other nonessential areas...
