Posted October 28, 2010 The picture I hi lighted was thanks but the text was different. You can't just buy a story book and only look at the pictures Ashley. I know its easier, but we have to be adults about this. :p Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted October 28, 2010 I propose a compromise. "High five this" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I know its easier, but we have to be adults about this. :p You showed me a picture that said thanks. As Shorty said today in the questions topic these scripts are not built by us thus I searched for a "thanks modification" because I knew that existed (as you showed me). The fact you said something else is irrelevant because you talk crap 98.5% of the time :p Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted October 28, 2010 Our thanks are limited?? How many do we have? Be a bit crap if someone opens a door for me one time and I've run out - they'll think I'm a right ignorant git! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Don't worry, you get more than one. And if you're just noticing now then obviously the limit is fine Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted October 28, 2010 I think "kudos" is better than "like" because sometimes I like to show appreciation to something that nobody should like, for example; ell's post in the "why life sucks" thread. No reason to like divorce, but I felt it deserved kudos for sympathy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted October 28, 2010 Yeah I know, but in comparison to Thanks and Like, I think it can be applied to negative situations without coming across as being sadistic, akin to 'props' -- a term that offers respect. Perhaps a totally unrelated/manufactured word would be better? a Tendo? That may be too obtuse to newcomers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted October 28, 2010 since when was it a problem? I've started using it more recently but never used them all up...seriously bigger problems to worry about Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted October 28, 2010 Well you could you not just call it an "Appreciate" button and then the line reads "Appreciated by:" You can appreciate someone's honesty or bearing of their soul much like you can appreciate a good joke or insightful comment.

Posted October 28, 2010 But in Ellmeisters case, he obviously wouldn't think you were actually thanking him, he'd use his brain and instantly know that you weren't thanking him. It's like when Nintendohnut got a job, depending on the thread/post, thanks can mean whatever it needs to really. So i see no problem with how it is now.

Posted October 29, 2010 I love it. The thanks system is fine as is. Having too much is silly, but this revolutionary image could solve all our problems. True. There's only a couple of people who use up their daily allowance. And we sure as hell don't want them to have more. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted October 29, 2010 If you feel that your life is currently affected by a "thanks problem", you just need to get out more. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
