TOPIC: forums suggestion

Server Name: forums

Suggestion Title: un-thank you post

How would it benefit the server: it would help because sometimes people thank you things when they dont mean too or they did and then the user edits the post they was saying thank you too

Potential Issues/Exploits: non i can think of

Additional notes: would really be helpful because i know i have said thank you to a post and i didnt mean too and it would be easy to just click un-thank you post because i am not sure forum staff can remove thank yous from a post but if they can i wouldnt wanna ask them anyway because there should be a way i could do it myself.


anything else i should add just tell me and if i think it should be added then i will add it

please let me know what you think

I don't think it's needed, it's not a big deal.

You could always contact a forum staff for them to remove it, i am not sure if section mods can however.

I've suggested this a couple of times in the Forum Meeting myself.

It can be done if they put like a timer to not let people abuse it.

I can really see where you're coming from with this, but with that being said, out of the entire time i've been here I've rarely ever accidentally thank-you'd a post, and if I ever did i'd just contact someone over steam or teamspeak to remove it.

I read it, in my opinion it just isn't worth adding due to it rarely happening, and if it does actually occur somehow, you can just contact them about it and it will be removed.

Morgan wrote: orrrrrrrrrrr add it and not have to worry about it i would rather be save then sorry and not feel embarrassed having to contact a forum staff member because i clicked thank you on a post i didnt mean too



i am not giving up on this idea Morgan no matter what you say

Do you really care that much for someone to get an accidental "Thank you"?

Come on its only a minor thing your not harming anyone and I doubt you'd be helping anyone either.

Huge

I actually have no idea how someone can accidentally thank you a post plus it's a thank you no one actually cares.

just deal with it.

I have an idea: be more careful.
I know I'm a genius.

Mentally unable. wrote: we sorry not all of us have big phone screens so we can be careful like you say and my screen is not the biggest but not the smallest either but I have big fingers so it makes it harder to be careful witch is why I think it would be helpful to add un-thank you to the forums

I've never accidentally thank you'd someone.
