    Thanks Button

    Just an FYI....

    The amount of "Thanks" that a user can give per day has been raised from 8 to 12....

    What do people think about bringing back the 'Groan' button?

    Odd that a "thanks" button would be stable, and the "groan" button would not. You would think the code would be almost identical.

    I really can't comment any further, simply because I don't have a clue....

    I'm trying to tweak things here and there....

    "Thanks" is probably built in, while groan is likely a mod.
    I've got the cure you're thinkin' of.

    No worries. I really haven't missed the groan button all that much since GAyR was banned.

    Don't take away the moan button. These barbaric cultures that cut out a woman's clit are insane. She can't squirt without the moan button gone.

    No I think they are both mods. The groan button mod was a bit ropey but I think it's maybe been fixed now.

    I very much appreciate that the thanks button does not jump me to the top of the page anymore. It was annoying, but for some reason I never thought it could be changed.

    Apparently, mine's fuckin' broken!! Lately when I thank someone for their post, it not only doesn't work, it also knocks me offline.
    For the last few days (especially the last few days) people have been putting up stellar knock-it-out-of-the-park posts, and I can't even give them their props.

    Please look into this (preferably before my conspiracy wheels start spinning and I start blaming this on 'the man')

    Oh, and uh......"Thanks" in advance!

    I have the same issue at work: Go to thank someone, get knocked off line. Even better, I can not log back in, but my name appears as being logged in at the bottom of the forum page! In my case, it has to do with the filters our work computers are beset with (which is another thread in and of itself). In yours, it could be a variety of things, none of which has to do with the actual workings and functions of the ARMY site. It could be anything from your internet connection, your computer's settings for allowing cookies, the parameters of your settings for screen size, your choice of add-ons, extensions or plug-ins, just to name a few.

    Let's raise it again! Good news from the band seems to be resulting in a lot of thank-worthy posts these days...

    Just a guess, but I think Sarge's decision to ban the N word may have something to do with that.

    I kinda agree with Jager, I would think 12 is sufficient, but I raised it to 15 anyway....

    It probably should be sufficient, but I can't tell you the number of times I've seen posts recently where people have said they were "out" of thanks...

    Don't regulate the thanks industry! Let the free market decide how many thanks we should get per day!
