Guest t****ster***ke Report post Posted January 21, 2013 it's when you thank a fellow cerb-surfer for their contribution to the thread or for an insightful comment, etc ... it's what you should do to capital hunter's post that linked you to cristy curves' post about what all the fuss was about regarding thanked posts! you will see the icon for it in the lower right corner of his post.

Capital Hunter 18263 Report post Posted January 22, 2013 LOL it is not in your post because you can't or aren't supposed to thank yourself. It is in OTHER members posts and as themastershake said it is at the lower right corner of someone else's post. A red Thanks button next to "Nominate Post" button.

I didn't say I didn't see it on my post, I didn't see it period. I do see it now though, may have something to do with having less than 5 posts? Maybe not but it wasn't there before and it is now. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Phaedrus 209521 Report post Posted January 22, 2013 Hmmm, don't see it, but Thank you for your response :) Not sure of the exact mechanics of it, but it seems that you have to have a certain number of posts on the board in order for it to become available. Keep posting, and it'll appear sooner rather than later :) 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You may be correct on the 5 posts if it wasn't there and it is there now. I know that posts are moderated before being posted when the post count is under 5. What I didn't know was that low counters can't even thank someone. Maybe same rule applies to Rep points at the top right?. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Maybe same rule applies to Rep points at the top right?. I hesitate to say this but.....The Rep Points option only appears on my posts. I'm sure related to the fact that I'm a moderated member. I'm sure in a few days everything will appear as it does to everyone else. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Phaedrus 209521 Report post Posted January 23, 2013 Maybe same rule applies to Rep points at the top right?. It does, but moreso. I think you need to have 25 posts and 25 rep points of your own before you can dish out rep points. There's a thread on the whole thing here, which really needs updating with whatever the "thanks" button does, 'cos I think that give rep points to the recipient too...

mod 135639 Report post Posted January 23, 2013 I adjusted the tanks option so that EVERYONE can use it and it gives 25 rep points now as well. (It's nice to be thanked for info posted!) 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fredsmith 5240 Report post Posted January 23, 2013 OK, at the risk of pushing things, why is it i see comments on a person's post but I don't know who the person is who commented. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
