    You spelt it correctly, but I#m not sure what spinning fire has to do with it...?

    are you saying people thank the same posters all the time?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,207 ✭✭✭The King of Moo


    I know I started a thread about people's definitions of thanks whores myself a while back, but I think we're all starting to get too conscious of thanking.

    Let's all just thank the posts we want to thank and not analyse why we or other people thank posts.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 28,399 ✭✭✭✭Turtyturd


    You would have got a lot more thanks/votes OP if you put up a video of two obviously mentally retarded twins dancing around and attempting to sing.

    Maybe if we put up our real locations, people from our neighbouring counties will give us more thanks?

    It would get so bad, we would need an independent panel of judges then that hold half the vote over whether a post is worthy of a thank or not.

    I'll make sure to thank every single post, by every single boards member from Co. Down.

    whenever I get a thanks I have a little excitement accident in my pants, it's gotten to the stage where I am deliberaty dumbing down my posts and making them as mundane as possible so that I don't have to change my boxers fixer or six times every day :(

    Nope.

    I'm saying that on this brilliant forum, the "thanks" appears to be based purely on how genuinely funny you are and its very competitive! The comparison to Eurovision is based on this accurate description;

    People get excited when they get thanked in abundance. Even if its a sh@t post, the feeling of appreciation is felt like a really bad song getting a vote at Eurovision.

    We prefer to be called thanks sex workers. thanks whore is a term of insult to my community.
