I was surprised to find those who have made literally thousands of posts and been "thanked" thousands of times, but have never (0) thanked anyone ever for a their comment, helpful tip, or post. Could that really be accurate ? Just seemed a bit hard to believe that people on here that many times have never found anything helpful or worth a "thanks" ?? Have no idea, just struck me as very curious was all ! I thought....LOL... are these actually "bots", LOL, so they don't "thank" others, like human beings...LOL ! ? In all seriousness, just seemed strange and never noticed in all the years since they first started this over at Crisper's on Fridays ! BTW, I miss Crisper's...but apparently I'm in the minority for sure...LOL !

I miss the Crispers get togethers too. Back in 11, 12, 13, and 14 it was a chance to actually get to know other posters. I think it makes it less likely to give or receive a snarky or downright mean reply if you actually know the other posters. Of course there were a lot fewer regular posters in those days. Typically on any thread I would actually know half and more of the posters and that made it fun. A lot of those “old timers” are either gone or decided to pursue other interests.
