I personally don't give a monkey's about other people's thanks count, or my own.
Who cares.
I treat people as I find them, not for the amount of thanks counts,
or even post counts, for that matter.
My thanks went down from about 250 to 3.
I don't care.
I couldn't see the logic in removal though (as has already been said).
I think a thanks on a post is a sign of appreciation or agreement.
Rightly so, but in GD............ it's not worthy apparently.
If General Discussion thanks are null and void, then shouldn't every single username posting on this forum have zero thanks.????
Why the f*ck should a plumber or chippy, (for example) be taken any more seriously in this forum with 50,000 thanks, accumulated on his or her respective forum, and posting for the first time in this one.
It's all boll*cks.
