    When did the "Thanks" button show up?

    Maybe it's me, but I just noticed the "Thanks" button in the lower-right corner of some posts.



    When did it first appear and what is it for?

    Thank you for asking...

    It's to help lazy fukers that can't type "thanks" in the quick reply box.

    And would Jim get the most FUs? How about a page like the iTrader that would count the number of FUs for users, to see who's the leader?

    Can I get a leghump button? That could cut down on at least 75% of my posts.

    Re: When did the "Thanks" button show up?

    I'll just use the Thanks button as a Fuck You button. Except for DuncanMoto this one time. So If I thank any of you it's really a Fuck You. Thank you all for your attention.

    Pretty much, but moreso to cut back on threads full of "thanks dude!". There is a purpose for it and hopefully you guys can use it as it was intended.

    There are currently no restrictions on who/what/howmanytimes thanks can be given, other than each person can only thank another person once for a particular post. With that said, if it's abused that will change...and those abusing it will simply lose access to this feature. Actually, it's already been removed from one of the perpetual dickbags.

    so if I hit the thanks button what the fuck does it do, send the person a PM?

    Can we have a 2nd button next to it for "thanks for being a douchecunt"
