I am pleased to see that TPU do not have a No Thanks button included.
No Thanks is a derogatory facility which serves no purpose but to promote agitation and confrontation. If one does not like a post, there is no need to say "No Thanks, your post is useless", just ignore it.
I find No Thanks and its worded back-up offensive, because displeasure is simply an opinion and opinions of like or dislike are proportional to the number of people on Planet Earth. Everybody has one and in terms of a discussion Forum a No Thanks is also proportional to the ability of a reader to understand fully what they are reading. If one tells another person that what they say is useless in normal life, then confrontation and trouble can be guaranteed.
Thanks is great. Everybody likes to be thanked.
Always bear in mind that NOTHING is useless, everything serves a purpose, albeit a negative one. No Thanks left at that is OK, but the definition given to it is highly provocative.
