    Thanks!
    Old is defined as 90 days or older. And really, an Aye on a post that old is somewhat pointless.

    I like it!

    I've also noticed that there is a "minimum post length" which seemingly prevents a mere "***" reply. I discovered this when I tried to reply "PM sent" in a For Sale thread. This would seem to force a "***" reply to include a quote of the entire post in question, which in some cases is real overkill (huge photos, etc. when the object of the "***" is a single line of text). I have no solution or suggestion for this, just exposing it to the light as it was a forum feature of which I was previously unaware, after multiple years of posting. Obviously I have never before been accused of too short a post!

    Nice addition to the forum, Steve. I have been an active member at the largest affiliate marketing forum, ABestWeb, for nearly ten years and the same plugin was added a year or so ago over there. They kept it as "Thanks" and it has seen a good bit of use - for exactly the reasons that have been listed here.

    ***.

    I like the 'aye' button. It's totally appropriate and (as David said) well-adapted to XMTS. well done, sirs.

    Will an "Aye" refresh the thread and bring it to the top of the new post listing like a "***" would?

    No, it won't.

    I certainly did read it--very thoroughly, I might add. It was intended as a good-humoured ribbing, Geez! Nothing more, my friend.

    As I've already said, I LIKE this new feature but 5 "Ayes" a day is not enough.
    I could easily use 5 in one thread.
