Do you see the button in the upper right that says "Good Post?" Click on that and the post will then list you as having thanked it.

You may wish to PM the poster, or post in the same thread as the post, that you did thank the post. The number of thanks shows up in the count under the poster's avatar, but no notification of which post is thanked is sent. For those who notice they have been thanked for a post, this can be a lesson in frustration, especially if the post is an older one someone only recently came across.

But regardless of if you notify the poster or not, I know for me, seeing the "thanked" number increase under my avatar is always a welcome sight.

Thnak you!

Oh...

...now if I can only find which post was just thanked!

[StevieG]

This one

Bottom left of post says Thanked by: littledaniele.

[Menolly]

I know I looked at that one yesterday, refreshing the page several times...

*shakes head*

Thanks for the thanks, littledaniele!

[StevieG]

- back to the 70s eh?

[Menolly]

No user is listed as the poster, either...
strange

[Avatar]

That's odd. Anybody try the link to see what the post was, or what the error was if there wasn't one?

[Menolly]

It was not showing for me when I looked after seeing StevieG's post...

[aliantha]

Dunno. We usually only get those weird dates when we've been hacked, and then all the dates are reset. (Man! I turn my back on this place for *one minute*... )

[matrixman]

1970, eh? So we get to do the Seventies all over again? I can't wait!

[aliantha]

If only I could do high school again, knowing what I know now....

[StevieG]

It only lasted a short time - all back to normal now

[Menolly]

My orange dot tree seems to be working fine, except for The Summonsing today. I replied to Savor Dam's post this morning, and the post is showing up fine. But it is not listed on the Index as the most recent post.

Could this just be a glitch for the one post? I usually rely pretty heavily on the orange dot tree and would prefer to not miss out on posts by doing so...

Did you get one of those database errors, (the 500 ones I think) when you posted it? That interferes.

--A

[Menolly]

hmm...
I did for one post earlier today, yeah.
Could very well have been that one.
Thanks Av.

[Avatar]

No probs. Happened to me the other day. It sorts out when another post gets made.

--A

[Menolly]

*nod*
As it has since done.
Once again, my thanks, Av.
For both posting to sort out the interference
and for the sentiment expressed in the post.

[Fist and Faith]

Sheesh. The whole How Do You Feel topic disappeared, right after I tried deleting a duplicate post that I, apparently, accidentally made. I think I'll Topeka this, and see if other sites have had the problem.

[I'm Murrin]

It did that to me with another topic yesterday. If you refresh it reappears.

[Cagliostro]

Sheesh. The whole How Do You Feel topic disappeared, fnord after I tried deleting a duplicate post that I, apparently, accidentally made. I think I'll Topeka this, and see if other sites have had the problem.

I don't know why, but this post makes me feel a little tense.

It's strange... there's this talk of fnords everywhere.... I'm almost certain it's an April Fools thing, but I'm still confused.
