The "Thanks" button is gone.

[Bryan]

Can we request a concealed thanks permit? Or have a waiting period on our thanked posts?

Thanks doesn't kill people; people kill thanks.

Go directly to jail. Do not pass go. Do not press thanks.

Pressing Thanks is what lands someone in Jail

Choice was remove the button, or start sending people to Thanks Button jail.

Anonymous sources say there was only one vote for using a firing squad

NetDoc has asked me to reinstall the thanks hack for a limited number of forums. This is not an official vBulletin product and to configure it in specific forums only will take some time to implement.

Your patience is appreciated while this is being done.

Dam, just when I could have used a "Thanks" button.

Are you counting votes received by PM?

Thanks CD, and thanks Pete for providing a better explanation. I disagree with the reasoning but I appreciate hearing it. Enjoy your mellow.

Bob, there are threads, mostly started by those "brats" (as you call them), castigating me for doing just that. In fact, I think you were supportive of one such user in one such thread. There was a judicious use of the Thanks button in that thread in order to manipulate/polarize the discussion. Go figure.

Pete, the word polarization has been bantered about a few times... Is it so wrong for people to have an opinion on a matter in a social community? Is it so wrong for people to subtly indicate their stance on the matter without spewing forth yet another post summarizing the points of someone else...?

Or do yo honestly foresee leather jackets being printed up w/ DLB, Hitchhikers, Lionfish, DNY on the backs and people showing up at the dock @ 8pm for a good ole fashion re-enactment from West Side Story....

What purpose does enabling the Thanks button serve in these specific threads vs. others....? From the forum selection, its all about educating the new diver. Seems like taking a page from LDS playbook on identifying their clientèle. All us people who've been around forever don't matter anymore, cuz it's all about pushing the mask, fins, and snorkel....

Have a Happy ITK - I will... The internet will be here when I return....

One of the problems with an anonymous source is it is hard to get truly reliable information that one can verify! Might have been more votes than we have been told!

COOL! We gotta do that!

Hey leave the Dutch out of this.......that'll just lead to more polarization.

Thanks (for the chuckle)

Sorry, can't thank you for this one, I'm lost
Can we have an "I'm lost" button?
