Do you thank every person individually immediately after they've posted?
Do you do a mass thanking when you feel you have enough completely different answers to your question?
Do you thank after the thread has gone off on it's 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th tangent?

I prefer to thank via green blob...

Thank you for that post big_si

I really love all you guys! Thanks for entertaining me whilst I'm off sick!

Start dishing out those greens then H. If that doesn't make you feel better, at least it'll cheer us up. Yours are worth so much more than ours

Shame on you YDers!

A big thank you to Wilbo for reminding us of our manners - thanks Dad!

Ok I'll just fetch the extinguisher....
Cheers, Paul

As stated in previous posts and one which I will clarify on my behalf, not everyone makes a public announcement of gratitude and some including myself use alternative methods such as green blobs or pm's. Just because its not on the public forum it doesnt mean it isn't happening and that people's manners are slipping.

But thank you for taking the time to reply to the thread Now where is that fire extinguisher?

What a load of poo - Wilbo and Scubee say the words only two posts before yours on this thread! The search facility must be fooked. I know I've said it plenty and my mask thread thanks people in advance

Yes it gets said quite a lot, along with the phrase "Big up..."
However, when wishing to illustrate this, I performed the afore mentioned searches with zero results!

I likewise have said it aplenty, indeed the last time was in my flashing thread posted before my search.

I must concur with your assessment of the search facility, although your language madam is a little too ripe for my taste. Perhaps it has something to do with the current phot caption comp...and dummies and prams???


LOL, Paul
