I would give you a "Thanks" for that insult, but I think you have enough. I will not feed into your "Thanks" whoring.

I don't want a No Thanks button, but a STFU button would be nice sometimes (and I do understand why we don't have either).

And given the propensity for calling Fata, it might be easier on some to have a Fata button.

I initially glanced at the thread title and thought it said "which poster gets naked the most?"

we do, it's called the ignore feature. I myself have only been motivated to use it once, and it makes my daily CP browsing much more enjoyable.

I run out of thanks to quickly to thank more people.

Interestingly enough, I usually thank the same people over and over again. Or new posters.

Here's an idea. I'll thank every post of yours I see and you do the same for me. Before you answer, I'm an Oiler fan. Do you really want to be seen as being in cahoots with one of our kind? I thought not.

I for one go take a bath in tomato juice and then a shower after grudgingly thanking you for your posts!!

Nah, we don't need the no thanks or STFU button. We just need to use this gif more often



And Hulkrogan, nice. I actually laughed out loud there.

Actually the other concept I have seen and liked is simply agree/disagree buttons. Disagreeing does not necessarily have to be seen as a negative thing.

Anyway, I do like the thanks feature, it is a good outlet that keeps you from needing to write a line to thank/agree with someone.

I think the largest number of thanks per post was Ronald Pagan's post in this thread, with 105 thanks (post 3 on page 1)

http://forum.calgarypuck.com/showthr...mo+cory+sarich

HD is close with 75 in this post

I think Oilfan 81 takes that honour although he hasn't been around for a while so you may be moving up in the CP world. That and you just take it like a man and don't rip on every pro Flames/homerish post that you see.

It is actually the Lefebvre thread when he was leaving the Herald with 111 I believe. There is more in the Suggestions forum about who has the most.

It's probably because you have blackmail on all the posters via the confessional email you have.
