    People count this stuff??

    Only one I notice who consistently get a noticeable volume of thanks is MT over in the weather forecast. He's accurate an puts in a fair effort for our forecast considering he lives on the North American continent.

    If you didn't think the 60 post was good imagine how bad people must have thought yours was.

    I have thanked your first post here blackcard. I think anyone else who reads it should too.

    Such blatant thanks harvesting should not go unrewarded.

    Its probably the eirebhoy thread who died in 2009, it no longer exists as far as I know,

    edit - there is one still on the soccer forum.

    I once received 7 million thanks for a truly ground breaking and revolutionary post which turned the world upside down. The population of Ireland was then decimated from 8 million to 1 million in a huge cover up of gargantuan proportions on an epic scale.

    The post you may ask? Oh nothing much. I just wrote in the creative writing forum "If they would rather die," said Scrooge, "they had better do it, and decrease the surplus population".

    Not so much counting as if you got to Find All My Posts in the drop-down menu, you can sort by Most Recent and Most Thanked. So it's pretty easy to find!

    The most thanks I got for a post was about 70 I think. I was quite surprised as it was for scaring the sh1t out of one of my kids by pretending to be dead.

    The trouble with the 'thanks' function is that it attracts the thanks whores.

    Think my highest ways 300. Maybe more. Someone less lazy than me can check. Highest elsewhere was.. 3000 - 4000, but that was on Reddit and almost anyone can get that there, so doesn't count too much.

    Don't think half the stuff I say is that interesting or noteworthy and am always perplexed when I see a high number of thanks.

    You guys are crazy.
