Dear Cite HR Website Support,
Greetings.
I do understand the message in the box and get reminders from the moderators about this. Saying 'Thank you' is a gesture to the person who has taken time to reply. Maybe it can be done collectively at the end of the day in each thread. I feel this gesture should not be restricted. A word of reply will be appreciated.

We want to encourage users to discuss the discussion topic or material shared instead of posting a 'thank you' post - which in a way makes them feel they have done their part. These posts add to the bulk in the thread and make it difficult for users to read useful inputs.
We may add a member acclaim system which will allow senior members to identify and mark important contributions. We don't want members to post just for "Thank you's" - it tends to encourage people to copy paste material they haven't created just to get those ego kicks.

While appreciating the logical explanations, a humble suggestion is made here. Forum administrators can even request members to avoid non-English vocabularies used in a category that carries the highest posts. Even such things do not add any value to members. A huge bulk in such threads can still be avoided. Thanks for the clarifications.

Greetings,
My two cents on this note. I am in love with the word 'thank you'. Just as love is blind, I don't need any logic for that. However, each time I say this to someone, they often retort back, saying, 'Stop thanking me. It sounds so obligatory' or worse, 'say it when you mean it'! The only one who never scolds me for thanking them is God :)
I am not complaining, but wish to share a lesson. When we thank people, they want to know why we are thanking them. I want to believe that sharing what one liked helps the giver make it better next time. We are all flesh and bones, so every moment is new. I am sure my learning on the word 'thank you' will grow far beyond this one reflection. I wait for it :)

Happy morning. It is nice to note that this thread has evoked some meaningful message. The views of (Cite Contribution) is simply fantastic and suggestion from Ravi is interesting. Have a great day.

My problem is with creating competition - competition for points of whatever kind just gives rise to a different sort of community. For this, we will add a thank you button which will just display a list of member usernames [non-linked]. Later on, when we create the user profile pages which will display a page of the user's contribution to the community. It will display the number but in a non-competitive way.

I have enabled a "like" feature which was available in one of our plugins. See how you like it. Regards, Sid

It's the same as any "like" feature - the top-liked posts show up on the sidebar so that users can easily identify the best posts. Other than that, there is a likes notification that will show up every time someone likes your posts.

Dear all,
How I missed this thread all these days, I do not know. Here is my two cents' worth. When I started work in the UK in 1967, it was a bit strange to hear the bus conductor say thank you when passengers gave him the money, and the passengers saying thank you to him when receiving the ticket. Similarly, at work, four of us sat facing each other in pairs. Sometimes when one had no eraser or pencil, he would say, "John, please pass me a pencil or eraser," and then say, "Thanks, John." After about a week, it just became a joke, and we had an agreement that whoever said "Please," "Thank you," etc., had to put a penny in a box. To cut the story short, we dispensed with such words on a routine basis.
I am one of the moderators who find it strange that people take pleasure in being thanked and thanking those who thanked in turn. I had posted a note on one of the threads that I started, requesting people not to thank me for the post but to add something of value. I like the idea of a button being clicked to show how many liked the post. I have seen that on Amazon.com, which has thumbs up and thumbs down signs for reviews written about products on sale.
Maybe I have become cynical after living in the UK, where some of these words are used mechanically, and the person saying them does not necessarily mean it.
I apologize for the lengthy note.
