The only option I see with this software is to 'require a click' from someone in a specific forum - meaning they must thank the OP in order to reply, and that would suck! I'll peek around and even shoot a message to the developer and see if that's possible what you mention.Originally Posted by Little-Acorn

My 2 cents, shouldn't happen. There are many times I'll thank someone because I agree or it makes me laugh. No comment from me is needed, thus I thank and move on.
Freedom of expression should include the freedom to abstain from speaking.

Agreed. I wouldn't force folks to click. I also saw another add-on at an unmentionable place in the past - where the member starting the thread could list names, and block others from their own threads. I don't like that either.

Doug has that, I don't like it. We agree on a lot of things like this.

I just realized, I got this one wrong. Didn't mean to poke at his site, I like him a lot! I was thinking I saw that at usmb.Doug has that, I don't like it. We agree on a lot of things like this.

I like Doug a lot, wish he were here more. I read his site a lot, but don't feel able to participate much, too many socks. I don't like to have to figure out who is who. It's not easy to figure out who's trolling, using sarcasm, etc. It's hard enough with folks you know, including their normal position on things to not misinterpret.

Yeah, I don't agree with the non-stop name changes and dual accounts. But to each their own!

Liberal moonbat
The "thanks" system as a whole can piss off.
Educate man, Liberate man
The "thanks" system as a whole can piss off.
So you can have that Looooooong WARM FEELING gabby? Help yourself.
I love to make Liberals Cry, and Whine.
So, this is for them.

I disabled the "piss off" portion of the system. I think a thanks or a like should be plenty enough. In addition to that, we also have the rep system which allows for both positive and negative. This removal wasn't for any person or it's usage. Just after seeing it as an option one too many times, it didn't seem like something we should be embracing, nor something that really fits with who we are.
