Default Suggestion: 'Thank you' button?

Tell me to go away if this would be too much work or a pain.

I was just wondering if a 'thanks' button would be at all possible on the forum. They use them on other forums that I'm on and they're a great way to either 'like' a post or thank a poster without posting again. I sometimes feel like I'm being pointless simply making a new post just to thank someone or acknowledge them. I think it would be good to have some other way of acknowledging people, to save being ignorant and ignoring them or boosting a board that may be dead.

Just a thought

P.S sorry if this has been asked before!

I agree, a lot of times I come across a post that I want to "like" as if I was on facebook. I think it's a great idea.

I will ask Fluffy (admin) about this folks and hopefully he will be able to tell us if this is an option.

Thank you Soufflé, I'll look forward to his reply.

I'm glad there are others who agree with it being a good idea!

I don't think there should be a disagree button as if people fall out with others on the forum it could be used in the wrong way

Also it could become a popularity contest

If we just have a like button then those that like a comment can like & those that would rather not like the post don't.
