If there's no merit I feel that's when you should be asking or suggesting of such, for now merit can be used to show you appreciate the users post or information given to the public.
What about in a situation whereby the user has no available merit to say thank you?, but really needs to express his/her feelings about what the member has done without having to write thank you, And such a scenario usually happens when someone has provided us with the very answers we needed. Using a like feature when we run out of merit would make sense if added and thus spicing up the forum a bit with a new feature “like button” though this is not something I would say is very important right now, but it is a feature that could be considered in the future.

I'm in support of what OP is advocating. I guess this same thought has been expressed somewhere in the forum but in different guise. Creating a "Thank You" or "Like" feature shouldn't be a problem for theymos or any of the creatives we've here with theymos' permission. Sometimes we have the need to thank a user for their meaningful contributions to us but lack the equivalent of such expression in merit. We don't always have merit to express such gratitude and a feature like that should be fine to do that job.

Otherwise i would keep spamming the forum thanking them for the post

also the more emoticons better
maybe what you intend saying is that it would be better if thumbs up or sort of a like button be added such that it a particular reply goes well with you, you can just like it without necessarily making a statement that might be considered spam and if thats what you want to say, I totally agree with you.

Their are other Interaction that if added to this site will make a whole lot of sense and I hope with time a proper review would be done and an improvement made to enable better user experience.

yeah; i have lots of other ideas too.

but to respect bitcoin, the community and the movement. i think it's important to work on the whole fundamentals.

we're also way ahead of time if things like bitcoin becomes the norm, but also even more reason to enhance it before public.

OP you're talking about a thank you button to be introduced why not ask for a like button because a like button would be better than a thank you button. If there's no merit I feel that's when you should be asking or suggesting of such, for now merit can be used to show you appreciate the users post or information given to the public.

And again you have to be careful and read the caution sign by members asking you to use the INSERT QUOTE other than commenting the way you're doing, or wait for someone to say something before you flood the thread with your comment like you're alone.

The suggestion for a Thanks button is not bad. But the threat you have given to the forum moderation is ridiculous. haha.
There indeed was for members to thank someone which is merit. But if you are a newbie with no sMerit, you can still post thanks in a thread. As long as you are not doing it in every thread you read, it should be okay.

Let's say I suggested you thank them and now you started to post Thanks in every thread, this will be considered spam and that does not make sense at all. There are a lot of forum members. If they can follow the forum rules, you can do it too. If the forum admin adds such a button, it won't harm anyone. But, I highly doubt theymos will do something like that.

i meant relic dust but im not allowed to [spam] all of a sudden so fuck you bitch
Kindly respect the rules and members of the community because being disrespectful won't help you or anyone else. If you want the admins and staff to add new features then you should ask for that in a proper way rather than using such low-value words in your posts.

Sometimes it takes a lot of time to add new features because the admins and staff are busy doing other things in their life as well and that's why a mature person should allow them to have some time and see the response of the community about a feature. And, when they get sure that it's necessary to add new features then they will try their best to add it.

You're suggestion is great to avoid spam but what you doing is not allowed read this below

32. Posting multiple posts in a row (excluding bumps and reserved posts by the thread starter) is not allowed.


You should next time learn how to use insert quotes and edit your post because it's considered spam.

And I don't think it's a good idea to add a thanks button I'm sure there are many scammer who will abuse this to make their thread/post look legit.
with all due respect, I don't know what exactly op is thinking by considering the use of a thanks button when there's a merit system that is on ground and running. As cheap as a thanks button could be if used it would also be enormously abused and less valued.

As a newbie you might find the use of certain features in the forum difficult for now but with time you will come to appreciate their usefulness and purpose, making provisions for a like button to posts/comments would make the forum look like one of those social media platforms like Facebook where everything goes with a like(s).

Saying thank or not doesn't make any difference. I know you are a newbie and may not really get it. One of the best ways to say thank you is to in my opinion help other newbies answer their questions and give them proper directions wherever you can. It would make the forum a better place.

Do not let anyone mount pressure on you to tell you that you need to send merits to a user as a way of saying thanks. We don't really care for all these things because either way merits will come when someone finds value in what you write.

Please stop replying each post individually

He was caught by @BitMaxz violating one of the forum rules by "Posting multiple posts in a row ".. So it's obvious that he didn't read the forum rules. That's my suggestion for all newbies, read the forum rules before posting, whether you want to ask questions or suggest something.

Oh for god's sake! You know something, f** the rules!

You've got hundreds of spammers doing quote pyramids of 20 levels with gibberish quota posting garbage, you got scammers opening hundreds censored topics, the forum is already losing users and now, the majestic rule, ban and tag a newbie for not using quote and post two times in a row.
And some wonder why don't we have any organic new users other that merit fishing alts!

But no, be my guest, keep imposing those, so we can have 100 people in a topic replying the same non-sense about following the rules and making their quota while banning some newbie for not knowing it's a act of defiance to the god of the universe to post two times in a row. BS!

I only see this as blackmail, you don't force any administration to do a thing threatening you will disobey the rule, you will only get yourself kicked out faster than you thought.

You better read the rules of the forum and follow them. Just like the people I read their replies had advised you, so be it. The Thank button you are seeking is the same as the Merit here, and that's final. What you don't know is that for you to get a Merit, you will have quality post(s) to earn it. By that, it will be somewhat sure that you are not just Thanking anyone and abusing it.

This is not Instagram where people like everything including Junkies.

You could thank everyone with a more meaningful way. Or thank everyone with only one comment. It's not that one has to quote separately, and thank everyone one by one. Also, it's not mandatory that you have to thank anyone. It's not required. But if you think, thanking that person who helped you is the least you should, just merit that person. That's it. He'll understand.

For example, suppose you have a proposal/question/confusion regarding some topics. Create the topics and wait a couple of hours. You'll see tons of comments coming regarding your question. Then if you think all of those suggestion/comments satisfy your hunger, then simply make a comment thanking everyone, maybe merit the most useful ones, and (if you wait then), lock the topic.  Wink

@Op, you are a newbie, first you need to read the forum rules so you'll not violate it, then you can make suggestions.
Is he really though? He strikes me as an old timer who is not so bold to use his main account to make this suggest and instead decided to use this one. I don't really buy the idea of adding a "thank you" button or more emoticons cause it's simply going to clutter the space somewhat. These emojis should serve your purpose and if it's not enough, probably you add a gif. Like the others have said, if you feel moved to thank a user for an insight he must have shared for you or helped you out, maybe you merit the person or if you're out, you can decide to give when next you have.

Don't you think keep thanking people could result to ban?
I can't see any reason why you would keep saying thank you over times, however, lot of this topics has been discussed about emojis' so i think you just need to do little research to finds out those threads insteads of keep spamming the entire board or topics with thinks notes. Be wise otherwise you might ends up being banned entire because I believes you are just coming so you should learned to be more familiar with the forum configuration instead of wanting you to change they system to suit your standard, there are other people who has met this forum this way and has learned to follow it and get used to it.

so now that i post here, i feel that a lot of rules are just strict. very strict. why?

What specific rules are you talking about? Unlike you, I find this forum to have the most liberal rules out of any online forum community I've been a part of, and I've been on quite a few. I think the mods here are pretty cool and laid-back.

What's the point of following orders when we fight for a cyberpunk coin?

Because otherwise, we would have anarchy. And we don't want that, do we?

This topic has been discussed multiple times here in the meta section. One possible reason of no thanks button is the existing merit system, allowing users to send merit for helpful or meaningful posts. This merit system encourages quality contributions by rewarding users with merits. If you find a post valuable you can acknowledge it by sending merit and once you've received a merit yourself, you can start contributing in the same way. It's a cycle that promotes a positive and informative community.

The best way to say thank you is to merit the person's post, and that's it.
 
If you keep spamming the comment section, you can either get tagged or get your account banned, and then you might no longer be allowed to do anything.

Sorry but this is stupid.

We have an newbie who comes here for the first time and want only an answer, he gets it and has no merit to send obviously, what can he do, just make a new post thanking the guys who answered his question and go away, a thank you button would solve the extra messages as well as the bumping since a lot will reply seeing the topic is bumped and not checking it was actually solved.

As for the ban and tag, common, be serious, you haven't tagged a single account on this forum, so how did you get to this conclusion?
Do you have an example of a guy being banned and tagged for replying ten times in his own topics for thank you post?

@Op, you are a newbie, first you need to read the forum rules so you'll not violate it, then you can make suggestions.

Oh no, don't we also need a birth certificate, a sperm sample and a fully KYC account here to make suggestion or ask questions?

when i like a post i could see it in my account history and it also makes easier read when a post has 20 likes, maybe something important has been said etc.

Just put it on your browser bookmark to easily have access on it. I usually do this on my google browser to collect all the useful thread and replies here. I just login my google account on my browser so that my bookmark will sync on all browser in different devices that login my google account.

Your suggestion is not bad but we already have merit system here acknowledged post that deserves much attention.
