I'm sure most of you have noticed Thank You's at the bottom of posts.

The Thank You button is used in many ways.

To Thank a member for posting the information. To agree with what they posted. To acknowledge a post.

It's a wonderful way to let a member know that you have read their post. You may be having a high pain day and not be able to reply or it's super busy day and no time to reply.

Hitting the button lets them know you read it.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Views on a thread.

Sometimes that number can be high, but the replies low or none. Please don't think that a bunch of people are reading and not replying. I know this can make people feel bad, to not get replies.

Non members might be reading, they can't reply. Also search engines send out "bots" and "spiders" so use so the information can be found in searches. Those count as views.

Plus each time a member checks back for replies, it counts you again.

Bump your post up once to bring it back up if you didn't get replies. It might have just gotten missed. ( To bump it up, just reply to your own post..it "bumps" it back to the top. )
