Thank

Could someone explain what these 'thank' signs are next to 'quote' I've been clicking on them and they disappear

I think it's ment to go away after you clicked on it. because after you did it, beneath the post there will be writen that you would like to thank the author of said post. does it makes sense?

Exactly!

It's a way to help readers to focus on the posts with added content,
to reduce the spread of a thread over several pages and it also
avoids a rising post counter just by saying thanks every time.

The post couter is used to automatically categorise users into the user groups
(Bilingual Newbie - Lingo Whiz) depending on their activity.

Ok thank you, BUT why aren't there any thank signs here in this thread

Hm, good question.

Maybe because it is in the "english only" discussion board which is for discussions and not so much for questions? I don't know, I'm just guessing..

@delfino: thanks for the corrections

Hi Lily,

just one little typo:

I think it's meant to go away...
