After much positive feedback I have implemented a "thanks" feature into the forum.
Often times a member will add a very good thread or post which users wish to show their appreciation for but have nothing specific to add to the discussion. The "thanks" button allows users to thank the original poster without needing to post a one line thank you post. This system will keep the forum more tidy and the threads cleaner, easier to read and more to the point.
You will now see a "Thanks" button at the bottom of a users post which you simply click to show your appreciation. When you do this your name will be added to the thank list for that post and will be visible to all including the original poster.
The thanks button looks like this:
If you want to remove your "thank" you can do so by clicking remove on the far right of the page, on the same line as the thank button. Note: you cannot thank yourself. Additionally users profiles will now also display how many thanks that user has recieved over their time on the forum and over how many posts and also how many they have given. Counting for this started as of 12:58am Tuesday 15th May.
I hope you all enjoy this new feature and as always if you have any questions or comments please dont hesitate to PM me or alternatively you can bring it up in the Site Feedback and Bugs section.
Cheers,
Blake
