Have you ever "unthanked" a member?

    I've only really done it if I thank by accident. Or if I read it again and find out I took them up wrong and don't actually agree with them.

    I unthank people I hate when I suddenly remember I'm still feuding with them. Internally at least.

    You mean thank a post and then remove it?
    A few times, yes. Mostly when I would read the first few lines and thank them and then afterwards I'd think "no, not agreeing with the rest".
    I think I might have done it when someone might have posted a post I agree in fully with then later on in the topic they start acting like a jackass and I don't like how they are in the topic.

    I never did it in the case of "oh it's that guy from another topic I argued with" or anything.

    I don't think I've ever removed my thanks from anybody. The post in question is what I'm acknowledging not any past or future issue(in the thread) I may have with the poster.

    I have a few posters who I never ever thank regardless of if I agree with them or not. But on occasion I've read a decent post by the pricks and thanked it before realizing it was them and promptly taking my thanks back.

    A bit petty, but they are cnuts in loads of threads so I don't regret it :pac:

    People hold grudges against other posters? I don't even recognise anyone unless I'm agreeing with them a lot. Or if they were Cill Dara Abu.

    To be fair, I'm here a long time, and I read a LOT. Some posters post the same sh1t and vitriol over and over. You can usually tell just by the language they use.
