thanks button

I don't see thanks button in the forum. If i would like to thx someone, I have to post one.But I don't wanna post one without any case.I think most of member will be like so. If there is a thx button it will be very nice.jz to click. And we can know who help member in the forum by seeing how many thx he have.So if there is some problem that dont wanna show,can ask via from private message.Jz suggestion.
if I did something wrong. Sorry and jz delete.

I see your point.
Thanks buttons are becoming popular on internet fora.

Sounds like a plan. Would it be anonymous except to the user who was thanked?? That would be best, I think.

Can't see how this could be as contentious and misused like the point system was, so I would support it.

Thanks for the suggestion!

Cheers
Mick

I think a simple reply to the forum saying hey thanks it worked.

This does two things:

1) It says yes this works so if others stumble on the forum they know it worked
2) You said your thanks for the help

I had started a thread about marking a thread as answered,
if somebody's question was answered,

then when someone is searching the forums,
they know if the problem was solved,

but a thanks thingy would be cool,

Yeah, you are right.but how about for the member who didn't ask for the help, Jz enter and read the forum but he got a new knowledge.he wanna thx. But I think he will not post saying only thank you.But there is a thx button, he will click.

I wanna add some. If someone's connection is very slow and the internet cost is high.He didn't ask for help in the forum, he wanna thx.He will not post thanks you.if there is a thx button it will be very nice.In some places of my country it take about 2 min to open the web page.Thx.

As was already mentioned, I think writing "Hey, thanks that worked" accomplishes all that is necessary. It let's everyone know that the problem was solved for future reference, and you're getting to show your appreciation for the help. I think that having an "issue solved" label on a thread is a GREAT idea.. !!

When this idea was suggested in the Suggestion Box, someone posted that we could go back and edit our title to note: [Solved]. I think we should all start to implement that immediately until we can get the mods to give us a button!
