Buttons/Controls in threads.

When you want to quote what someone has said, you press the quote button. But what do the other buttons do? Esp the "Thank" button.

[Tuckerbunnies]

I don't know how people manage to quote a line, I have tried and can't do it so I end up having to quote the whole message for maybe one line...how do you do that? am I just a bit thick or is it cause I'm old or a bit of both

[Thumper2001]

You just delete the bits you don't want to include

[Tuckerbunnies]

Oh I is old then and thick

[Thumper2001]

Just make sure you don't delete the [quote] bits at either end and you will be fine

It's pain to do on an iPhone, which is usually where I post from so I tend to just quote the entire post too

ee Maysie.

Im still non the wiser to the "thanks" button though. Thumper2001, i thanked you in a post about Maggies spay, but i dont know what the button actually does!

[Tuckerbunnies]

I pressed it and nothing happened, maybe it just doesn't work

Hmm... I can't see anything different and I had a look at my profile too and can't see anything there either.

Strange

Maybe it just does nothing?

Where is this 'Thanks' button? I don't see it, maybe cos I mod?

The Multi quote button doesn't seem to do anything for me either...I will investigate

The thanks button is on the left hand side of the multiquote button.

[Jay]

it may be on your screen...
I knew there were distinct disadvantages to becoming part of the management

Hopefuly Sooz can help us all out

[icedancer]

I don't have a thanks button either! But I am on my phone so don't know if that makes a difference. I'll check on computer later.

I can report you all though!!!

[Thumper2001]

I can't see it either But like Carla, I'm using my phone!

[marleyNfriends]

Ive just worked out...theres only a thanks button on posts that are responses to your own threads. So i can see them on here because i started the thread. Carla will have a thanks button on her thread about bonding florence with the rescue bun.

[Guest]

I've thanked you on the fao sophia thread so you'll have to let us know what happened!

[Sparky]

I couldn't work out multi-quoting, then I found this thread and it works fine for me

It appears I have figured out Multi quote!

Ive had a look on that thread, there was nothing there to suggest that youd thanked me. I checked my profile to see if there was a thanked posts count or something nothing.
I have absoloutley nooooo idea!

[Guest]

Not in the pms?

[Thumper2001]

I just did a quick google and it would seem that forumotion have a Reputation function for members.

Maybe it's just not switched on here

There's lots of functions that Sooz can elect to have available, some are used, others not, but it's good to have them there if we need them.

We have discussed things like reputation functions, or advisor status etc., and we have to look at the social aspect of things like that. I've seen it on other forums where this kind of approach quickly segregates the community, by creating a heirachy of members that are perceived as being more knowlegable, or have more gravity to their posts. This can make other members feel left out, and as if their posts won't be given the same attention as someone else's. It may only be a small thing, but it's a subtle one.

Every members experience on HH is as valid as anyone else's, and with that comes mutual respect, and, if required, respetful debate. This is a far more progressive way of running things

[Thumper2001]

I totally agree with you Jay

Bunnies are serious business and a function like that could have a detrimental impact when someone is seeking advice. IMO of course
