    I've often looked at a post I was thanked for and wondered what part of it I was thanked for. Like if I make an AH type remark followed by a valid informative answer, are they appreciating my comic hilarity or my helpfulness.

    Pffft... Boards thanks are ten a penny - getting stuff "liked" on Facebook is where the real shit's at.

    I see that a bit as well.
    Like little cliquey cheerleaders.

    Boards in general is quite cliquey tbh.

    *hopes fiendish plan for sympathy thanks works.

    It's always been used to take digs at people. And we're probably all guilty of it.

    Send me on your bank account details with sort code, and i'll sort it out for you.

    Also, are you aware that you have just inherited an heirs ransom in gold from an African Prince?

    Details sent. I PM'd them to you in case there are any dodgy people on this internet boardsie thing. -oh just realised I forgot to send you my pin number, it's 0707, (I was born on the 7th of July! -good one eh!) I use this for all of my cards. Anyway, let me know how to 'thank' and I'll lodge some money into my account for you to enjoy.

    I've no interest in any princes' gold, african or otherwise, now a princess.....

    correct. first I was born = unlucky, and then, obviously '07/07' = very unlucky.

    I'll have to owe you a 'thanks' until I am allowed, or I could just type it.

    I was including verbal thanks

    sometimes people will thank me in person or phone me up to thank me as a result of the boost my posts have given them

    I sometimes lay awake at night for hours (sobbing on the good nights, cursing on the bad) all because I can't thank my own posts. :(

    Thanks on AH generally isn't so much "Thank You" as "I acknowledge that you've made the most stupid and obvious joke about the topic within the first 10 posts"

    Never mind, when they have a "begrudgery" button, you'll be able to play as well.:P
