Okay, I am officially bowing out of the thank-you race with Dorg, having determined his lead is now completely unassailable.

The pressure is getting to me, I just can't be nice to everyone anymore and keep trying to think of thankable notions about which to post. It's like the forum version of going to the beach and sucking your tummy in the whole time. It's time to let go, breathe out and say the unpopular, sarcastic, snide and bitter things that have been building up for months.

Or is it? Is there any shame in second? Should I concentrate on consolidating second spot?

*looks around at his challengers*

Hmmmm, Chongo, Acacea, Lonnarin, Leanthar and darkstorme.

*ponders*

The big update is done, Chongo's popularity should start to wane. Leanthar? What's that guy ever done? Darkstorme? He's his own worst thank-you enemy - he of the endless bio rewrite. Lonnarin? Would be a contender but is well known he has embraced the dark side and will earn very few thank-yous from the the RL-good-aligned factions. Acacea, Acacea ... reasoned, articulate, rational, hmmmm ....

*begins to plot her downfall*

*Taps fingertips together*

Time for another update.....

The secret of the thanks are that they are reinforced by the divine forces of karma. It is one thing to be thanked often, but to give thanks is much higher on the scale of benevolence. Therefore, envy not those people who are thanked often but thank little in return, for karma will punish them for their thanklessness. One day, that one little guy who only got thanked once or twice his whole life will win the lottery because he thanked the forum members who helped him frequently... but then Dorg will wake up that morning to find his car has been struck by a meteorite on the very day he forgot to pay his auto insurance on time... and the Pseudonymn shall rejoice!

I still think there should be a requirement for people to thank as often as they are thanked. I think the team seriously needs to look into this important balance issue.

Acacea · « **Reply #74 on:** September 27, 2007, 03:31:22 PM »

Or just remove thanks from those of us who think clicking the 'thanks' button for every collection of words that forms a sentence is a little excessive...

Much like the word 'love' that becomes mostly useless and nondescript when we love our dogs, our favorite movies, that pair of socks, that ratty pair of underwear, the lifemate, the curtains, the burger, chocolate, that one song by that 70's band, etc... who can be flattered by the word after that, really? It belongs in the brothel! So to does a gratuitous, meaningless thank you.

Besides, what if we actually reply with a thank you or say it in person rather than letting a button do it!

@Acacea, it's these sorts of responses that are the reason why we love you.

Acacea · « **Reply #76 on:** September 27, 2007, 04:36:03 PM »

That was another nice try for a button click, but Lonnarin is the only one that's biting.

Skywatcher · « **Reply #77 on:** September 27, 2007, 04:37:04 PM »

I love thanking people so I am going to thank Acacea for that.

What can I say, I get paid to sit around all day in a warehouse, drinking beer and browsing Layo forums. How could I not be thankful?

You know you're job rules when you stock the office fridge with beer, and the store manager says "Sweet! can I have one?"

@Ms 60-behind-and-unlikely-to-catch-up, your world-weary cynicism and bitterness is showing ...... but I still love you.
