I think it's an awesome feature, and have already been enjoying it!

I'd hate to see what would happen if General Antilles got the "No Thanks" feature he requested though... :D

Why, it'd backfire spectacularly on me, of course! :D

Reggie, I find the :-) link only in mobile II, can we have it in plain mobile too?

I think we need a "anti-thanks" button as well, so that members can show each other just how much they despise each other too! We can have the two cancel out and the net result is an overall Karma point system.

Cool feature. Will the overall totals for all users be exposed at a particular URL which could then feed into the Maemo user profile karma system?

We will try to do that in the future.

A new icon called 'Thanks' can now be seen at the bottom right of each post. If you think a member has helped you answer a question that has been bugging you for quite some time, or maybe a member just contributed something good that you didn't know before, show your gratitude by clicking on the new 'Thanks' button.

:D
Although a "thank you" button is commendable, I immediately saw a major flaw:

Where's the "I flip you the middle finger" button?

I don't mean to rain on the parade, but I don't like it. It's just using up more space. Many forums have a thumbs up/down feature or +/- that you can click and rate the thread or each post. If you click further you could see which user liked/disliked the topic/info. I'd rather see that. The "XYZ" thanks... deal will get old fast and annoy, IMHO.

Actually it has four major advantages:

1. You don't need to do a quick reply to say thanks which I guess makes the thread longer
2. Members viewing a thread will see immediately which post/reply is helpful
3. It promotes helpfulness in the forums
4. Nokia can make use of the data
