What is your "Thanks per Post Average (TPA)" on this Forum?

[sledge]

I am not saying it but, I guess the data is saying it. Unfortunately this thread is bringing down my TPA.



ryanw, whoever would like to do a percentage instead, feel free to do so.

Thanks for your interest everyone

I would think there are so many other issues in the world to worry about other than what your "TPA is". It is like the people I saw on other and less grown up forums that would post worthless one word replies on forums to up their post count. In the world today.. does any of that really have any bearing on anything? Do we all get to go to parties and tell our friends "Hey man I got over 800 posts on the SMF?" or "Man you should see my TPA!!"

Is the "Thanks" relevant. I think it is. I see quite a few people here that have been given great advice on something they asked a question on and don't hit "thanks" -- it takes a millisecond to do so. The post doesn't have to be this life altering post you are thanking someone for. It can be as simple as a "Nice Joke" or "Great response" I think it is a nice tool the admin implemented into the forum. It shows that you appreciate what others are offering to assist you, and in return you are appreciative of the information. It is a two way street. If you have a great post, and people appreciate what you have taken the time to post- they say "Hey.. thanks buddy for the information.. I found that helpful"
