That's true. The only reason I even looked is that it was brought up here. It is a bit odd, none the less.

Can it be removed? I would assume it consumes overhead on the server.

Personally I would prefer to not be at the top of anyone's list!

How about a " No Thanks " option ....

Thanks. That covers it. No need for a "*No Thanks" on this one.

*If I would have said "No Thanks" to your "No Thanks" idea, that would prove your point.

I hope not, That guy put a WHAT THE H on all the post hors. And i only thank when helped or when some one makes a very good post, As posted above most of you dont know how to use the thanks button. Have a great day and dont worry about it.

Not directed toward you David. Just any random individual post.

c'mon doug....we dont need any snitching..save it for the CH

boy that was harsh wasnt it?..sounded a lot more funny in my head...

There's no thanks feature in the Clubhouse so it needs to be said in forums where there is one that should be used, so saying it there makes no sense. It'd be helpful to have the thanks feature in the CH, because there are too many posts of "X2" or "good post". Those add less than if there as a way to just add your support with a thanks. As it is people are just saying YEAH, SO THERE.

They might consider a "relevance meter" on the side of every ones name, a scale from 1 to 10 attached to ones account.

Some examples (like these below), would alert others who the historically poor performers are as PY members.

A * next to the relevance number would indicate the person is a "cut and paste" kind of member more than 50% of his posts.

PY Relevance Scale

I own a Pontiac, buy from PY, and post in Tech areas of the forum twice a month or more: relevance factor 10

I used to own a Pontiac but currently don't, I help by posting in Tech areas twice a month or more: relevance factor 6

I don't own a Pontiac, and not interested in anything on PY that deals with Pontiacs, but I do post in non Tech areas 90% or more of the time and have a low post count: relevance factor: 1

I have never owned a Pontiac and though I stay on PY for long periods, I don't post in Tech areas or contribute much in the Pontiac hobby: relevance factor of 0



That seems to cover the spectrum.......

What if you own a Pontiac but post only on days when the sun and the moon are in line and buy from PY on odd numbered days bi-monthly when it's raining? What would the relevance factor be?

1/2.

I was laughing at this entire thread, especially at the big string of useless "thanks" to every post. I actually blew a little snot on the keyboard during a chuckle through my nose. I don't know why, but this was one of the funniest things I've read in a while.

I think Dillon wins with the biggest continuous string of disingenuous "thanks".

[The Boss]

How about we just say if we agree with somebody or disagree just like we do in real life?

Relevance points, thanks, or reputation points......what relevance do they have in a Pontiac forum? If you spend ANY time here you can quickly tell who knows their **** & who makes it up, who the whiners are and the troublemakers, and who's here to learn & help.

My vote goes for dumping it.

[Old Blue 66]

I'd just like to thank everyone who posted in this thread.

[Greg Reid]

Gee... I'm not anywhere near the top....so....THANKS A LOT GUYS...

When someone or a group of folks help me with ideas or suggestions I specifically thank them. Seems like the right thing to do.

That's the way to be David. Thank you.
