Richard_Grant Posted September 9, 2014 Share Posted September 9, 2014 I would like to have the option of thanking people by the press of a button. Currently there is a like button but that's entirely different than a thank you button.

requinix Posted September 9, 2014 Share Posted September 9, 2014 Is it different? They get points on their profile, it puts your name on the post (if you're one of the first), they get a little notification that someone liked their post...

kicken Posted September 9, 2014 Share Posted September 9, 2014 As far as I am concerned they serve the same purpose. Having two different buttons would just be unnecessary clutter.

Jacques1 Posted September 9, 2014 Share Posted September 9, 2014 The point of the “Like” button as I understand it is to mark excellent replies and allow knowledgeable users to build up a reputation. Whether you're thankful or not, happy with the post or not isn't really relevant. You simply acknowledge technical advice. Let's not forget this is a programming forum. It's not a social media platform. Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/290934-request-thank-you-button-feature/#findComment-1490450 Share on other sites More sharing options...
