    Default Can anyone explain this new Thanking feature?

    Just noticed this today and have not seen a thread about it...Just looking for a bit of knowledge on it....Can you tell who thanked you?....What exactly does it mean?...what is the difference between that and giving out rep?

    I think I just thanked you for creating this thread. I was wondering the same thing & hadn't seen anything about it.

    Hopefully we'll get some info

    Yeh,Bilbo layed on the floor and pitched a fit about reps getting out of hand for newbies and Vetran posters not being in the lead and getting there just do so "Ta-daa".Now you can simply thank someone (basically a CC) without actually contributing to there rep or punchpower.while all along you could actually choose how much rep (1 point =1 CC really)to give on a scale so now we just have more .............tools or gadgets ?At the bottom of your post,it says who thanked you.

    haha you guys joke but deep down you all know we needed this feature.

    Next I'm going to campaign for clothing, accessories and a throne room that we can spend our rep points on.

    I won't be happy until I've got my own virtual hobbit hole here on Saddos and I'm all kitted out in some fine dungarees, an old gardening shirt and a pipe full of pipeweed.

    yeah just trying the thanks system out to see how it goes running it hand in hand with the rep system to get a feel for how it goes.

    you can check your profile page to see what posts you where thanked on

    I think it's too similar to the rep system,it's like having 2 parallel systems,one will eventually stop being used or will not be used as often. If I thank someone,why would I need to give them reps?

    you all whine like a bunch of school girls. And are fucking nostalgic to a fault. Get over it.

    someones talking sence its time move forward not backwards

    ........

    OK just the few responses to this thread tells me that the thanks feature is a bad idea...and no matter what system i implant not everyone will be happy. so why bother doing all the work to be back at square one.

    it has now gone and i will just be working on the the rep feature which has its faults but the main fault i see with the reps system is it is being taken far too serious and compared to much to the CC/SC system which also had its faults and complaints.

    Saddo thanks for all the work and effort, and for trying to please people.

    I just wish people would realize that this is all just for fun, and they are nothing but meaningless points. It's not like it's money!

    The members of this forum, and their opinions, are what really matters.

    People should be respected by how they carry themselves, and not by how many points they have.

    Yeah I find it has taken away from what this site is all about, boxing.

    I can see why the veterans would feel why this place would be watered down, perhaps a special title for them or something.
