You should only be able to give thanks with 30+ votes and only say 5 a day.

Disagree.  People tend to only thank/like retarded insults n dumb shit.

Intelligence is rarely thanked.  Boobs always thanked.

Very true Umbrella Corps, i like your idea for only contributing members being able to thanks i think it should be considered by the mods. I think with this sites users a hard to abuse button is very needed.

It's definitely the big thing this site is missing. Should it be regulated? I'm on the fence on that one.

This is all too true. Im wondering if we could do it where 50 posts = 1 thanks to give so you have to make them count but I wouldn't be surprised if shitposting went up just so people could stockpile thanks.  But then again who are we to dictate what one should be thanked for? I mean ideally thanks would be given to quality contributions and act as a way to showcase good posts. But if that isnt how the user wants to use it what is the point? It really only worth doing it all the way and letting the users decide what is worth thanking or not doing at all.

I would wonder if there is a way we could implement a feature that works like thanks allowing users to say "thanks for making me laugh" or "thanks for making me think" (kind of a range from like for lolz or like for content etc) and whatever the user puts dictates the priority of the post. I.e. we could have a system that sidebars posts thanked for content and originality while posts that were just good shit and lulzy stay thanked but not promoted.

Just flowing ideas here.
tl;dr: idealism will not un-rape you.

How about a thanks button that adds to your total thanks like thanks for the content and a like for a particular post

Sounds kinda redundant really and the Likes would still have totals.

Very true Umbrella Corps, i like your idea for only contributing members being able to thanks i think it should be considered by the mods. I think with this sites users a hard to abuse button is very needed.
