Don't buy this at all. The thanks button is usually used so people that feel compelled to comment on a post with "yeah, great post" or "great point" or "you made me smile with that one" don't have to do so. Erick, I appreciate that pretty much none of your posts fall into any of those categories, so that might be why your don't see many thanks for your comments. It isn't that people are against you, its just they don't think you bring much to the table. The "thanks" whores are almost non-existent on this site (you know who you are), so that thanks button really is just short hand for "yeah, I see value in what you just posted" not "let's pick on Erick."
Come on. Press that little button. I know you want to!!!
