Post Thank You Hack

[Zap]

I've just finished installing the Post Thank You hack on our forums.

There should be a "Thank You" button on everyone else's posts.
You can use that button to quickly thank someone for a great post they've made.
Thanking a post will add one rep point to that poster, regardless of your repping ability.

If you really liked their post, you can rep them first and then thank them.
If you try it in the reverse order, you'll get a message telling you that you've already repped the person when you go to add rep to them.

[fastreplies]

Thanks for making "Thanks" option avalable on addition to Reps point.

The best part of it, you can Thanks someone without waiting when you give enough reps to rep the same member again.

Good job Zap. Well desrved Thanks given

:)

[krisma5]

Thank you. Nice option. =)

Is there also an option that you can jump to the newest post in a thread instead of having to scroll down until it is found?

[ewomack]

All forums need this. We need to thank each other for our brilliance. And there is so much of it to pass around no?

No?

[Zap]

Thank you. Nice option. =)

Is there also an option that you can jump to the newest post in a thread instead of having to scroll down until it is found?

There is, but only for the newest post in each subforum.
So, if there are 10 subforums of Entertainment, you'll get the first unread post from the latest thread updated.

I hope I explained that clearly. LOL!

[krisma5]

yeah, clear as glass. =)

[Atom]

Unfamiliar buttons scare me.

[Atom]

In fact the internet scares me.



Who ARE you people?

[Atom]

I just was watching that big band era PBS special, don't sit inder the apple tree with anyone else but me etc, pretty wild stuff, Hiya Mr. Jackson etc, that Kalamazoo song there.. Glenn Miller and all that etc, some good stuff really.

[Atom]

Chattanooga Choo Choo is pretty wild, I never really sat and listened to it before, here you can see it performed as well, pretty neat stuff PBS has on.

[Muddy]

PBS is great. The Andrew Sisters were hot. Well...singers anyway.

[Atom]

Yeah. I can remember my parents listening to that sort of stuff, I thought some of it was pretty good.

[Zap]

I saw a documentary about Einstein on PBS, once, that was fantastic.
I only caught part of it, but what I saw was really amazing.
It went into great detail about his Theory Of Relativity and explained it so well, you felt it.

Wish I could see it again some day, in full.

Wish I could see it again some day, in full.A vid may be available free of that very one that you saw, you have to search the PBS site for it if you can remember the name of it, and if you can't just navigate to the most accurate category and you may find it that way. I'd be interested to see it if I haven't already, I've seen a few different ones on there throughout the years, they seem to get better and better.

[krisma5]

Yeah. I can remember my parents listening to that sort of stuff, I thought some of it was pretty good.

I still have lots of that stuff on my computer. Good ol classics

[Atom]

I see that they're following homosexual cases on Cheaters now. They're more entertaining than the hetero's.

[ewomack]

I agree. Recently I was the only straighty at a party and whoa can those dudes party... yow... these guys had the collective energy of an ICBM penetrating solar prominence.

[Muddy]

I've never had an ICBM but I imagine it'd be pretty uncomfortable.

[krisma5]

especially if it's solar!

[Muddy]

I don't know how it could be IC and solar at the same time...

[Atom]

That's the power of Pine-Sol, baby.

[krisma5]

Can't you smell it?

[Atom]

Yes. Brings me back to about age 5. Vicks does that too.

[Atom]

Listen, I think I know just a little bit about ginseng root, k? :sqmad:

[Atom]

oops, wrong thread, sorry. ..

[Atom]

Alright, who put the MOP & GLO® in my tequila sunrise dammit.

[Atom]

What's the prognosis, your honor?

What's the verdict, doctor?

These are questions I think we must all ask ourselves.

[krisma5]

Sorry, I thought that I could re-use the bottles.

[Atom]

Course ya can. Just need to wash them out good with a solution of Clorox, Pine-Sol, antifreeze and isopropyl alcohol is all.

[krisma5]

and all at once I assume.

[Atom]

Well, separate applications would be good but for maximum effect, yes, a cocktail is best. And don't forget the safety goggles.

[Atom]

I've currently decided to drink till I'm sane.

[krisma5]

I prefer Pina Colada's.

[Atom]

Oh sure, mention Pine-Sol and the Spanish comes out.

[krisma5]

Si Senjor.
Ola es a Mama sita.

That's about all I got in that language. Oh and the numbers up to 10.

[Atom]

If Senjor.
Mama Ola is located.


Thank you, Google Translate.

:sqerr:

[krisma5]

LOL, I guess I lost my Spanish skills, that wasn't what I ment. :sqlaugh:

[Atom]

I think GT's been into the almond extract again. lol

[Muddy]

Vicks does that too.

Must...not...touch...edit...button...

[Atom]

Yeah sure, get a few drinks into ya and let's go to town, well I'll not have it do you hear? I'll NOT!


:3confused:

[Atom]

What if we formed a think tank with lines to outdo Family Guy. What about that huh?

We could build a site and charge admission. Yes, we are that good.

[Atom]

Ed, Muddy and Watley for starters..

[Atom]

In alphabetical order of course.

[Atom]

Yes I know, everyone wants everything free on the internet, but we'll give 'em a taste of something they'll not be able to resist.

[Atom]

If no one but me existed, I would still convey my thoughts.

To what, is the question.

[Atom]

:3rolleyes:

[Atom]

I love you, you love me, we are one big fam-il-y with a nick nack patty whack give a dog a bone, this old man came rolling home.

[Atom]

Sure, I could fall in love with you, but who is it that I really love?


I've currently decided that all people should be killed.

[Atom]

j/k, but ya see how it's done, Ferre?

lol

[Atom]

Please send weed or seeds or something. Thank you.

[Atom]

The following is a statement beyond all profoundedness;

I am one that is not going to go away until I am gone. Thank you.

[Atom]

Yes, I know that I'm simply one ant amongst an astronomically large beach of sand grains, but...

I DON'T CARE!



ok, now back to our show..

[Strong]

Ed, Muddy and Watley for starters..

I had that exact same thought several months back else where. Just before the forum games thing. I was thinking of writing a number of sketches for something on youtube, to raise money for charity.

But I thought why would those wonderful thinkers lend their skills to one of my dumb ideas. I couldn't persuade myself to try. I'm glad to see someone else thought the same thing, which means it couldn't have been all that bad.

Screw charity! We're trying to survive here, in the most comfortable way possible!!!!

ok n/m.

yeah charity is nice.

[Strong]

Don't get me wrong, money is good too. You can buy a lot of charity with good money!

[Atom]

Don't get me wrong, money is good too. You can buy a lot of charity with good money!Why you......

ok ya got me.

:3unsure:

That was a good reply.

[Strong]

:sqwink: Love you man! Night.

[Atom]

Nite Strongy. :sqbiggrin:

[Muddy]

I'm in. Great idea both of you. I hope Charity is the name of our accountant.

[Muddy]

Speaking of Watley, where is that good fellow?

[julien_simon]

I think he went back in time...where he came from.

[Muddy]

Atom! We need a time machine! If anyone can build one, you can!

[Atom]

Well he never did really post much, good posts though. He's probably busy or some shit.

[julien_simon]

Atom! We need a time machine! If anyone can build one, you can!

I thought you just went into town to get your time machine fixed and buy "things while in the big town?

[Muddy]

I guess that is a time machine in that it saves me time!

[julien_simon]

and time is money so you are basically making money from your lawn mower.

what a great investment!

[krisma5]

My my, you have all been so busy....

[julien_simon]

or not...which would explain the # of new posts. :)

[Muddy]

Krisma, could you please whack Atom with a coupla guppies? Ever since he posted that picture of the hot ankle tat he's just been perfectly saucy!

[julien_simon]

I have a hot uncle to. Should I post a pic here?

[krisma5]

I noticed that. He likes to talk to himself doesn't he. :sqlaugh:

[julien_simon]

I noticed that. He likes to talk to himself doesn't he. :sqlaugh:

some people blame it on age, other on alcohol. Some even thinks he is senile.

he is simply a genius bored in a world of handicaps.

I heard he mows lawn to perfection.

[Muddy]

he is simply a genius bored in a world of handicaps.

I heard he mows lawn to perfection.

True on both counts.

[Muddy]

Well, I don't know first hand about the mowing. I'll have to find out mow and get back to you.

[Muddy]

I heard he mows lawn to perfection.

Wait a minute...was this an innuendo?

[Strong]

I thought Charity was a woman's name, and boy what a woman! :sqwink:

[Atom]

Krisma, could you please whack Atom with a coupla guppies? Ever since he posted that picture of the hot ankle tat he's just been perfectly saucy!Speaking of which, I do believe that I put a bit too much wine in the spaghetti sauce last night. :sqembarrassed:
Sorry, folks.

Muddy, I hope you removed the fuk you's and all that. :sqembarrassed:

[krisma5]

I heard he mows lawn to perfection.

Who doesn't?

[ewomack]

What are the "thanks" anyways. Sorry I've had my head in the toilet for a week now. But I love the soothing sound of the ocean.

[Zap]

Thanks can be used in addition to or instead of rep.
When you Thank a post, it adds one rep point to the poster's total, regardless of your rep level.

[krisma5]

And how do we rep someone without the thanks button?

[Strong]

Right click on the scales icon on the left of the screen of the post you want to give rep to. A little box opens up and you can enter a message for the poster as well, this is a private message that no one sees.

[julien_simon]

why right click?

[Zap]

Strongy has his clicks mixed up. :sqlaugh:

It's just a normal left click on this http://www.btwimho.com/images/aktif/buttons/reputation.gif.

If you choose "I approve", the person gets positive rep added to their total.
If you choose "I disapprove", the person has rep points taken away.

[krisma5]

Thank you, very good to know!

[Strong]

Doh! It's a sign I'm a genius you know. Einstein use to forget to put his trousers on you know! :der:

[ewomack]

And I've now allowed saccadian motion to do its work... I see a "thanks" button to the right of everyone's posts but my own. I think it all makes sense now.

Once again getting out of bed was worth it.

[Atom]

Right click on the scales icon on the left of the screen of the post you want to give rep to. A little box opens up and you can enter a message for the poster as well, this is a private message that no one sees.This is a private message that no one sees except a person with admin access, should they so choose.
Same goes for PM's.

[Strong]

Ah! I didn't know that. Interesting.

[Atom]

Ah! I didn't know that. Interesting.Yeah, mods especially should be aware of this, it isn't info that an admin freely gives up. In other words, don't be dissing the admin in PM. ; )

[Strong]

Damn! Now you tell me. Why couldn't you have said something a few years back :sqeek:

[Atom]

Damn! Now you tell me. Why couldn't you have said something a few years back :sqeek:I've mentioned it before at v7, probably to John's total horror LOL. I don't know if you were registered there at the time or not.

[Atom]

Muddy, remember that member's who shall remain unnamed site link you sent me in PM? Now you know why I didn't respond. That was hilarious, BTW. LOL

[Muddy]

Muddy, remember that member's who shall remain unnamed site link you sent me in PM? Now you know why I didn't respond. That was hilarious, BTW. LOL

Ah yes, for a mere 7 bucks? LOL! Yeah, I didn't mind if the admins saw that. I would have posted it publicly so a bunch of us could have a laugh but that wouldn't have been nice to the unnamed member.

[Muddy]

So watch it everybody! Now you know. I *WILL* laugh at you behind your back! lol!

[Atom]

Ah yes, for a mere 7 bucks? LOL! Yeah, I didn't mind if the admins saw that. I would have posted it publicly so a bunch of us could have a laugh but that wouldn't have been nice to the unnamed member.Yes well I'm sure you didn't mind if the admin saw that, but I'm referring to any dissing that may have occurred had I responded and the convo escalated, even if the dissing was in jest. I think it's best for mods to dis members in chat programs rather than PM's. :sqwink:

[Muddy]

That never stopped us from dissing Strongy!

[Atom]

That never stopped us from dissing Strongy!Well that's true, but that's cuz he's special.

:sqwink:

[Atom]

lol

edit: I thought Zap said he remedied that five character minimum problem, but he apparently lied because I just tried submitting this post without this edit and it didn't work. Zap, I take back my thanks in an earlier post! :sqmad:

[Muddy]

I think what he remedied was that it wouldn't let us do an LOL in all caps. Now it does.

[Muddy]

So the thank you is still appropriate for the all caps fix, but some more bitching about the 5 character minimum is in order at this time.

[Atom]

I think what he remedied was that it wouldn't let us do an LOL in all caps. Now it does.But that is not what I was complaining about. This is a case where he apparently misinterpreted the quote in his post #68 here > Please Help Us Promote BTWIMHO - Page 4 - BTWIMHO Chat Forums (http://www.btwimho.com/showthread.php?p=3282#post3282)

and I didn't notice the misinterpretation and thanked him. lol

[Atom]

In fact what I thanked him for had not been remedied, I should have tried the lol right then and there but I didn't, I just assumed that he interpreted the quote properly and fixed it, the LOL's should have tipped me off but I was distracted with other things at the time and yes, it's all my fault. NOT!

lol

[Muddy]

lol! Yes, I understand. See post #101!

[Atom]

So the thank you is still appropriate for the all caps fix, but some more bitching about the 5 character minimum is in order at this time.That sounds quite reasonable. Ok I take back my take back. lol

[Zap]

lol

edit: I thought Zap said he remedied that five character minimum problem, but he apparently lied because I just tried submitting this post without this edit and it didn't work. Zap, I take back my thanks in an earlier post! :sqmad:
It used to be 10. It's now 5.


I think what he remedied was that it wouldn't let us do an LOL in all caps. Now it does.
Right. There's an ALL CAPS prevention setting to keep people from shouting their entire post. I've turned it off to accomodate the LOL.

[Atom]

It used to be 10. It's now 5. (...)Yes sir, I know that, and I should have mentioned that I guess, but that still does not address the original complaint, which is that I couldn't submit a post consisting of lol. Don't worry about it though, a few additional punctuation marks or w/e aren't going to kill us, I just like to give you a hard time occasionally. LOL.

[Atom]

Keeps you on your toes. LOL

[ewomack]

I will exercise my newfound freedom: LOL!!!

LOL!!!!

Ahhhh... like looking up a skirt on a fresh spring day...

...and not getting caught, of course...
