    Why do you click it?

    Personally I use it for posts that make me laugh or have some insightful sayings.

    I just click thank on the first reply, after that they're all thanks whores.

    It looks more like a 'nice onnnnnnne bud' icon to me hence my pressing of it, repeatedly.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,592 ✭✭✭✭kneemos


    My online persona needs thanks for its self worth and esteem.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,754 ✭✭✭oldyouth


    I always use it to thank a post which is having a dig against XXXXXXXX. I really hate XXXXXXXX :mad:

    They don't come any tougher than Oldyouth in a rage..........

    Mainly if something makes me laugh, or if it has a reference to something that I get.

    Also if I agree with something the poster says but a lot of posts have a point I would agree with then go on to make one I would disagree with.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,379 ✭✭✭CarrickMcJoe


    I click it because my parents always told me to say Please and Thank you.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,839 ✭✭✭✭padd b1975


    If it makes me laugh, or displays some much needed common sense round these parts...


    To be honest, I really should use it a lot more, but I just skim on to the next post.



    Feedback: It's painfully slow on the touch site!!

    I thought you had to thank over 500 posts before you're allowed in the Soccer Forum?

    I try to make up for copulating with their mothers.

    I tend to thank posts I agree with.









    And every post made by someone identifiably female in the hopes that they'd notice me because I'm that desperate :(:p

    I hit thanks to, eh, say thanks.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,295 ✭✭✭✭Duggy747


    I always thought it was a "Stick thumb up poster's arse" button.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 1,590 ✭✭✭jane82


    Sometimes when I say something really funny I bookmark it and come backlater to see how many thanks it got.
    Im so ashamed.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,264 ✭✭✭✭jester77


    I click it so that I can see my name pop up under the post. This then makes me smile like this :D

    For a few reasons:


    I agree with them (biggest reason).


    They made me laugh.


    They made me think.


    I like the poster.
