*Thanks not stats

Okay good, the only one i have used / seen used was the one at HF and it just displays a pop-up that says "Thanks is always appreciated".
Yeah, I noticed that too.
Look at the source of the page, all the Thanks button does on HF is pull some Javascript-fu.

Wouldn't that turn into just a more wide-based version of the rep system? I think I would like it more though...

Not so. Rep is if somones an ass or not. Thanks is a helpful user. It could be used with the awards each month.
Who uses the "thanks button" in HF? if you ask me it's useless for here too.
I think the thanks button is a better way of showing appreciation. The rep system gets abused.

There's one in HF? Huh I guess I'm not very observant when I go there.

And a Thanks system wouldn't?
I don't think the Thanks system would be abused as much because the Thanks would have to be linked to a specific post?
