Sorry if this is in the wrong place, but I have no thanks button on the posts. Is there something I can do to get it?
Thanks.

I think it was something like the posts had to be less than 130 days old Also you have to have the new skin
Do you mean that there is no THANKS button on your posts or everybody's?

umm, stupid question, but are you on mobile? because on mobile there is no ''thanks'' button.
I misread the title, I thought you were proposing we should have a sarcastic 'no thanks' button...maybe its a good idea, each member would have 2 meters, a thank meter and an arse meter.

Excellent idea!
I do not have the "thanks" button either. I read the thread where XDA introduced the "Thanks" button and it is right next to the quote, multiquote. I have seen pictures, but I do not receive the option to thank someone. Any news on this? Do you need to be a more senior member to be able to thank someone?
* Edit: After posting my first message, I now have the ability to "Thank" people. I guess thats what I get for only reading and not contributing.

Hi there!
My Problem is that I can not see the Thank-Button. I know it disappears when I've made 5 "thanks" one a day, but until now I haven't made one.
Ich would really like to thank Darky for his great ROM.
Greets from Austria
Laurenz
Edit: I'm using Chromium ( the open source version of Google Chrome) under Ubuntu (Linux)
Make sure you are using the XDA 2010 template. Also, you won't get a Thanks button until you've made 1 post.
On addition this above info you have only 5 thanks per day
I'm glad that I finally found this post-- I have been lurking, and really wondered why everyone but me could see the Thank button
(The Emperor's New Button?)
with the new forum changes, I better stop lurking, as I am mostly in the development sections and wont be able to post there until after 10 posts. :-(

Well, that explains that. I'll just make my first post here, so I can start thanking those who have helped me...including you.
but, does the Thank button go away after x days?
I wanted to thank lopez1_de for TouchWatch2, but the thread started in 2009 and the only posts with thank buttons are the two most recent from Oct 2010 by other members, not lopez1_de.
So does the button go away on old posts or am I missing something? I'm using the current version of Firefox, and haven't got a clue whether I'm using the XDA 2010 template, what it is or where to find it.

I've noticed this. I assume that the thanks button is only there for posts made since it became available.
Ah! That hadn't even occurred to me. (Comes from being a relative newbie.)
Thanks, johncmolyneux.
I need to track down an explanation of the Thanks button. There must have been one posted when it was started.
I believe you can only thank posts in the last 90 days
Glad I found this thread. First post here, in search of the "thanks" button.

I know it's supposed to go in Q&A, but.... I know I'd get a quick one time response.
If I want to undervolt, do I need to install a kernel other than the stock one in order to do so with setcpu or CPUBoost?
Yes, you need a custom undervolted kernel.

The bad part about asking in the wrong section is the information isn't available to someone else with the same question "they will be looking in Q&A" which is what the forums are for this also clutters up the forums aside from the fact it makes more work for the mods.

thanks btw are you on giffgaff like your signature ses or are you on orange like the image on the left says? i love giffgaff.
If you feel you are helping people and people are showing their appreciation by telling you or pressing the "Thanks" button then conitnue with it, all that should matter is if you feel you are being a productive positive member. And honesty is usually best, granted tact may also have to come into play but people that are not straight honest it can make things more frustrating for the user in question. So in a nutshell if you think are a benefit then keep going.
but thats the point i am not sure. like 90% of the 100% dont even say thanks or press thanks when i help them as a lot of people post a question and then dont even check that thread again.
thanks thouugh

Hello all xda:ers!
Surely have all of you have gotten a thanks, but have you given one?
The thanks button is more than a button its a help and a way to show your gratitude and support.
So what do you do with it?
If somebody has helped you and solved your problem, press the thanks button.
If somebody has posted some material you like or download press the thanks button.
If somebody has wrote a comment or thread you agreed on, press the thanks button.
And so on...
Let's give you a example of what happens if you don't press the thanks button:
A guy who is new in development have decided to do an app for himself to use because he feels like it's missing something on his phone. He makes the app, and feels that oh yeah this is a really good app, I should give it to the community so they also can use it!
He makes a thread here on XDA about the app and so on and adds the Apk to the thread in an attachment...
Really many here at xda thinks oh what a great app, I couldn't live without it any more!
So after a few days he sees that the thread has had 10k views so he checks out the thread to se what people have said and so on. He looks at his post and sees that he only have gotten 10 thanks!
So he thinks then, well people didn't like my app why should I continue to develop on it? He takes the thread and closes it and takes away the attachments, he makes a code that sends a message to all the downloaded apps that the app testing is now finished and closed so you can't use it anymore and there is no further development since nobody likes this app...
So all of those who downloaded the app can now not use the application that were so great and the guy who made it is gone out of the community!
SO IF YOU LIKE SOMETHING PRESS THAT THANKS SO THE DEVELOPERS CAN UNDERSTAND THAT THEIR WORK IS APPRECIATED AND CONTINUES ON THEIR WORK! AND SO THE USERS WHO HELP YOU HERE ON XDA FEELS THAT ITS GOOD TO HELP PEOPLE INSTEAD OF JUST THROWING SH*T IN THE THREADS!
Thanks that's all I wanted to say!

Because they can and they think it really matters for something besides the size of their e-..... when all it really is a potentially wildly inaccurate measure of someone's ability to answer a question correctly.
