    I also think that there should be one.

    Puzzles & Quizzes has a thanks button yet posts aren't counted either.

    Just as well there's a Tar forum really. Can you imagine this sort of thing clogging up Feedback? It doesn't bear thinking about tbh.

    I think there really should be, the nest is not what it was when it was first set-up, alot of the posts in it are far better than what gets thanked in After hours, why should we not have it!!!

    The way it is I have to make a post just to thank someone, i don't really care about thanks counts or post counts, the thanx button just saves the trouble of mucking up the thread to say "Yes I like that". Everyone is entitled to an opinion-I'd like a thanks button.

    The thanks button saves people the effort of finding a better way to acknowledge someone's contributions.

    Full posts just seem to slow down the flow of thought,(yes I know you don't think anyone is actually thinking). They destroy the unity of posts. Why is it better to write a fawning post when a simple thumbs up is all that was needed?

    Ok. Sarky, I'll just start winking - since you already said no roll-eyes.(you won't like that either.)

    Have you even been inside the FlirTar subforum (go on, check it out, support TCN and its newest feature, you're all community-lovers, right?)? There's nothing BUT winking.

    Yes I've been in there and just because a person doesn't post in a thread doesn't mean they don't read it. How did this discussion get so far away from having a thanks button? I'll just devise my own.

    It degenerated into flirting with Tar. Or evolved into it, I'm not sure how it works. Anyway. Tar is lovely.

    Am I reading this right - certain smilies are not allowed to be used in TCN because a mod doesn't like them?

    You can use them, then he bans you.

    Back on topic. While a thanks button in TCN would be nice, people would no doubt constantly abuse it.

    That might happen, it has in other forums, but they still have thanks buttons.

    By that logic, Sarky would be the only one with a thanks button in there

    And it would be kept "new and shiney in it's original wrapper" a true one of a kind collector's item. :D

    I think anyone who is thanked should be banned for a day. That'll keep things interesting:D

    Thanks button won't happen. How about post count?

    What?
    Have you been sniffing yeast again?
    The post count in the nest is never,never,never,never,never,never,never,never, to be turned on, have you any idea the cost in bribes for me to get my post count reset if that was to happen?
