You need an intervention. You're highly addicted to posting stupid sh!t.

Should we change it?

Several ways to vote:

1) Remove all THANKS button hits from everyone's post counts. Everyone's post counts will go down when the adjustment is made, but the post count will show only the actual number of real posts.

2) Stop all future THANKS button hits from adding to post counts. Everyone's current post counts stays the same, but from now on hitting the THANKS button won't affect post count.

3) I was told there would be no math.

I think regardless of any changes, we should leave the other info in everyone's avatar block regarding how many times we've been thanked for our own posts.

I personally just advocate making the post count only show actual posts, not any THANKS button hits at all... past, present or future.
Just in case you forgot the post on P.1

There is the slimmest of chances that he might actually see that I thanked him before I have had the chance to remove it. I couldn't live with myself if Sea Six got the idea that I approve of his ways.

We can do this people. Imagine how he will feel when he rouses from his gay biker bourbon stupor to realize what has happened.

He'll have the joy of a page 2 success, and the shame of a failed poll.

Mixed.

Is there any way to set the forum so that whenever anyone thanks one of his posts, his post count does down?

That would be really funny. Wonder how long it would take for him to figure it out

What if we hit the "Thanks" button but don't really mean it...kind of like hitting the "Like" button on Facebook when someone says "My Dog was just hit by a truck"?

In that scenario could we come up with another button such as "I acknowledge what you are saying, however I really don't want to give you any credit for posting your opinion"
