Default Which poster gets thanked the most?

So, I had a couple hours to kill, and I know I can't be the only one wondering. So here's the top 10 since the implementation of the "thanks" feature (which I enjoy).

The next step I believe is to implement a "no thanks" feature.

1. HalifaxDrunk - 1,257
2. Bingo - 1,128
3. MrMastodonFarm - 884
4. JiriHrdina - 763
5. Machiavelli - 694
6. CaptainCrunch - 637
7. fotze - 618
8. troutman - 594
9. Reggie Dunlop - 566
10. Locke - 559

If I missed anyone, it's cause I don't really care enough to go through every profile.

I have too much time on my hands.

Where can you even see how many Thanks a poster has gotten?

Not surprised in a few given what they regularly do for this board. HD (GDT), Bingo (Game Takes) and Machiavelli (Game Day News Round Ups)

See the Suggestions Forum, but the mods are trying to keep the atmosphere positive here. Not negative.

Pfft. I am only, like, a few hundred thanks away from being on that list myself.

Yeah, like MattyC said, I am not surprised at that list either, except for maybe fotze who is just a very disturbing individual.

I'd thank myself for being so awesome, but it just can't be done itself.

Oh well, I'll just self high five myself.

Someone should make come up with a TPP number (Thanks Per Posts)

I bet Bingo and HD would be 1 and 2 in that too.

I think we should qualify 'thanks' too. We could have stats for 'hard thanks' and 'soft thanks'. The 'hard thanks plus/minus' would be fun. I'd also like to see 'fractional thanks'. So often I see a post that I kinda like, but it isn't really 'thanks' worthy.

CrusaderPi gave this post ½ thanks.

your thanks should be worth 3.14 standard thanks.

It's only a matter of time before "The Value of Out-Thanking."

They can't be a gift from god given that they evolved from skill points.

The hell they did. I could see the hand of God working via his conduit, the programmer. Either that or thanks were designed to happen from skill. I can't remember.
