    It's just like a lot of the other site features - use it if you want it, ignore it if you don't. It's up to you whether or not you choose to thank a post, and nobody else can make that decision for you.

    It's mandatory for all TTR users to thank every one of my posts. This helps me to feel better about myself so I don't have to take as much anti-psychotic medication. o_O

    Seriously though, click your name, choose "Alert Preferences" and uncheck the box by "Thanks your message" if you don't feel like knowing how awesome everyone thinks you are.

    I was just wondering if guys and gals I guess got some sort of prize, you know free trip to the bahamas or something. lol
    I am not so good with computers and not a member of many sites,but I think I did figure out how to get the alerts from going to my email all by myself. lol
