andybarton Posted April 15, 2015 Share #21 Posted April 15, 2015 Advertisement (gone after registration) +2 - the old "Thanks" was vastly superior - instantly visible. So bring it back please, and stop trying to justify the new vs. the old! I would even venture to suggest that had this alteration been made public prior to the change most of the so far silent majority would have voted to retain it. This forum software may not allow the "Thanks" button to work the way that the old one did. It might be impossible to do, with the new software (I don't know) Andreas can only work within the constraints, features and opportunities offered by the software. I am sure that he is gathering a long list of To-Dos, including gripes being brought to the fore by members and will deal with them as he can.

Advertisement Posted April 15, 2015 Posted April 15, 2015 Hi andybarton, Take a look here Thanks ...... no Thanks ...... I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
lct Posted April 15, 2015 Share #22 Posted April 15, 2015 Can you reinstate the 'thanks' that we used to be able to add to posts in the way it worked before ....... ??? [...] Being among the "5 others" supposed to "like" your thread, i will simply say +1. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Winedemonium Posted April 15, 2015 Share #23 Posted April 15, 2015 I prefer the Thanks button. But I 'Like This' forum, 'Thanks'.... so long as there is a way to acknowledge useful posts without having to quote-reply to them (which is sometimes more than is required), I think we're fine. It's also reassuring to see that new software has been invested in - thanks so much to the mods for the time and effort no doubt required in this transition.

platypus Posted April 17, 2015 Share #25 Posted April 17, 2015 (edited) In post #17 Ece has cleverly summed it up exactly. Ye olde "thanks" button was great when used as just an acknowledgement of whatever needed that and no more. Direct, simple and to the point.

lct Posted April 17, 2015 Share #26 Posted April 17, 2015 We'll have to click on "others" to disclose more than three thankers if i understand well. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
madNbad Posted April 18, 2015 Share #27 Posted April 18, 2015 Advertisement (gone after registration) If with such an undertaking of moving to new servers and a new format, if this has been the biggest complaint then kudos on the transition. It's just a hard group to please sometimes. 6 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
allamande Posted April 19, 2015 Share #28 Posted April 19, 2015 Better now? Yes! Thank you so much (and this requires more than just hitting the "thanks" button). I also want to thank you for getting rid of the ads that were showing up in every page even after I renewed my membership. I can only imagine what a humongous task this transition must have been and I appreciate your swift response to members' concerns regarding all the comforts we've gotten used to in the old format and felt we couldn't live without. Regards, Ece 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
dkCambridgeshire Posted April 19, 2015 Share #29 Posted April 19, 2015 (edited) Yep … The former 'Thanks' is a much preferred acknowledgment. TYVM dunk Edited April 19, 2015 by dkpeterborough 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gibbo Posted April 21, 2015 Share #31 Posted April 21, 2015 I still don't seem to be able to hit the Thanks button more than a handful of times per day Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
