Hell now what's really annoying is when someone runs out of thanks, which I've been guilty of too, is quoting the post and simple saying "Out of thanks!" to acknowledge a good post. The thanks button eliminates half a page of useless posts.

I am all for getting rid of thanks altogether. Since thanks was introduced everyone just tries to be a comedian and PGTs are essentially unreadable because there is no discussion, people only post animated GIFs.
There were too many "I agree" type posts, but there are still too many posts where people post things just to post. Go into any recent signing thread and you will have to scroll through a couple pages of people posting "Great signing" "Wow good signing" etc.
CP needs to do the anti-twitter and impose a minimum character count.
