    There should be a 'dislike' button aswell like on Youtube.

    Also I like the why you can spitefully remove your thanks on here, if someone wrongs you for instance.

    I have been as unsubtle as to put up a post at the end of threads before now saying something like "to thank the members, click the thanks button"... That seems to do the trick Maybe we should make the "thanks" button huge... And make it flash... And beep.


    Why has nobody mentioned clicking the reputation button yet? Does anyone else use that? I do from time to time but it doesnt tell the member that you have done it.

    a very good point/thread neale!
    if somebody takes the time and the effort to help then surely its comon decency and good manners to at least thank them, even if the the answer wasnt quite what they were looking for??

    Spot on Jamie, I quite like the 'like' button coz it tells you what post has been liked, you don't get that with thanks button.
