Do you keep track of your thanked posts?

A lot of people were happy to see the introduction of this feature, and personally I think its handy, you can click a little picture instead of postwhoring. Anyways I noticed you can see a list of your thanked posts and I think its nice to be able to see who thanked you, who agreed with your point of view, etc, something…

I run over them the odd time, when I'm bored, but besides that, I don't bother too much. It is nice to be scrolling through a thread and see other people agreed with you.

Yep. It's nice to see that you've contributed in a positive way.

And it's even nicer to see that I've overtaken Sherifu at the top!

Who has the most thanks on boards? I remember there was a feedback thread with someone bitching about the function, they got probably a hundred thanks for that one! Is it stats? *goes a wandering*

I think that there should be a "Fuck you" button, then I would be on the leader-board for something.

I'd like a "no thanks" or "boring" or "You're a twat" button especially for those generally unfunny "You're ma" comments.

There's no need to thank me, it's the least I can do

I can see those suicide notes "Nobody thanked me on Boards, so I swallowed a pack of Stanley blades",

It's not her legs that are wider. They're just structural supports. She's got the eye of a tiger that one.

Yup I check every so often.

The more thanks you have, the bigger your e-penis. Which is why I feel incredibly horny warm and tingly whenever someone thanks me.

Not sure why, but I think it was. Perhaps he was thanks whoring? Some people have taken it off their profiles themselves, like silverfish afaik.

Yeah I check it sometimes. It's nice to see when people found a post thankworthy. Although some of the ones that have been thanked, baffle me. I can't understand why it would be thanked.

Lolz that's part of the fun AC. It would be nice to have a function where you could have a list of people that thanked you, rather than having to look at each post.

Out of interest:

Who's the most thanked poster on boards and what's the most thanked single post (remember seeing one with about 40 in a thead about mobiles, but can't remember where?)

Everything I don't like is either woke or fascist - possibly both - pick one.
