Thanks DocJohn,
I, personally, hope that a button of some sort will be allowed to remain for members who have limitations/difficulties with typing and manipulating posting. If it's not tracked anywhere, that's more than fine. I think that those who are severely limited in their abilities to type, click, and the such could greatly benefit by this "one click" thank you but more.
In fact, I think it would be awesome if we could tailor that button with a drop down menu of some useful "automatic responses" (i.e. thank you, i agree, please tell me more, check this out, etc.). I know that's probably not an option, but how cool that might be?
Also, that might reduce the anxiety/concerns regarding the "thank you" alone?
I think this might be a good way to help some current members, future members in one of possibly many ways to come.
