Thanks, remove button - General Topics

I've accidently pressed thanks, but there's no remove button.
I would put in my suggestion for one

Ah s***.. I want my thank back!

Agreed. I wish there was a way to remove thanks if you accidentally pressed the button... Other (unnamed) forums have it, why not XDA? The thanks button is a great idea, but what if it turns out that person was wrong, and you don't want to thank them? Or if you have a small seizure and accidentally click the thanks button (this happens more times than I would like to admit...)
I don't think moving the thanks button is a good solution, provide a method to remove thanks if you wish. Thanks!! .

why not just thank somebody and make him happy? even if its an accident

Has this been implemented somehow? I did a search and got here but can't find if it was done.

what?
i am not sure i know whats going on

If you want to unthank someone you intentially thanked because they have been proven wrong, perhaps you are a little too triggerhappy with the thanks button in the first place and/or should also take accountablity for being wrong as you obviously supported them before you realised they were wrong. Fairweather friends and all that If you pushed thanks accidently and it keeps you awake at night sweating about it perhaps you can write a discalimer in the thread stating your thanks was accidental and you formally withdraw it and ask that whenver people take that persons thanks into account they mentally -1 from the total.

Wait, these thanks have value to you people? o.o
The only thanks I take is ones that are written out, despite xda disapproving that method.
$1 gets you a reply

I believe that we should also add a "No Thank You" button. This button would be aimed at people that give dumb or useless answers. Or people that meddle, troll or ask redundant questions. Yeah I'm guilty of a few of these offenses but I think I've learned now.

I know this will only help Chrome users using the XDA Toolbar, but I do intend to add a confirmation to the thanks button, so it asks you if you really meant it. I'm only doing it because it took me ages to get used to it being there, and I was forever pressing it when I wanted to quote someone!

Added to that, maybe change your settings on your mouse to have to double click so even in a seizure moment, you most likely won't double click.

kindof off topic but still i with say it i think we should be allowed to delete our own posts and topixs completely!

@bazzatron
Firstly, don't try to restrict who can post in threads.
Secondly, rooting is NOT needed to use widgets.
Finally, there are NOT different widgets specifically for the X10a, as the X10i and X10a have just about the same hardware and software on them.
That's all...
EDIT: Don't be offensive to other members, too...
Also, are these X10 forums just a place for people to flame and argue now?
It's useless to do so, as most people don't who you are anyway, and shouldn't care - but that doesn't even matter too!

[New Feature] Titanium Backup

New feature on TiBu:
I never noticed this until today. Since the last update, dropbox has been integrated into TiBu that allows to upload the backup files to dropbox, as a secondary storage location in addition to storing on phone. This can be enabled by selecting enable dropbox option under preferences. Deselecting dropbox feature erases the dropbox stored credentials too, and will prompt user to enter them again when enabling again.
Please do not flame me if u already know about this. Am putting it here since this came in a silent update, and unless a person reads changelog/plays with preferences would not come to know. In fact the dropbox sync button is not visible until u enable it in preferences. (I noticed this only today )
I am not sure if free version too has this or not, but I sure have this feature in mine (paid version).
Note: I created a new set of backup using industrial encryption (1024 bits) for added security, and then uploaded to dropbox.
i have had that option since january....
not new, not silent!
Not available in free version.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA App
ah i never used the free version for more than a day... google.
I haven't been able to make it work. I keep getting a Dropbox error. What a bummer, one of the main reasons I bought the premium version was to get the dropbox support.
try going into preferencess > failsafe dropbox code.
It's been there for a while now. Useful, nonetheless.

Had that same problem. I went into dropbox and deleted the folder it created and then kicked off another sync making sure I had full Wi-Fi signal. Worked much better since then.

I don't know or care who you learned it from. Just because others do it doesn't make it right.
As to the post above yours he was polite and pointing out there was also another thread of similar topic. He made no moderation comments.
This is not your first time, and it's not the first time someone has made a similar comment as mine to you. AKA this is not the first time someone has called you out on this issue.
Just because you see others doing it, does that make you want to copy their actions?
At most I was trying to let you know in a polite way how you are coming across to other members. And an easy way to report the post and save being known as a wannabe MOD.
Your right I don't own XDA and as such everyone has their own views and opinions.
You can take the comments I made however you want, but the intention was a little friendly advise from a very experienced and long time member of XDA
Peace

I'm torn. I love the sleekness of the sensation..but it feels a little slippery to me. My main reason, and probably most other users main, is protection. The thin and barely there cases only really help with scratches. i've dropped my phones on occasion so that is why i'm torn. I've tried to dedicate a pocket for it but that isnt working out lol. Always ends up with keys, lighter or my benchmade I've already had it replaced for damage and asurion only gives you 2 replacements so i gotta be careful. If they get this thing worked out and the bugs fixed, i'll probably put a case on it. If i gotta deal with bugs for months, i'll probably go naked and kinda hope (in the back of my mind) for it to get damaged a few more times so i can jump ship and get a better device

[Q] why push the thanks button?

just read a rant http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2122219&page=15 posted by a themer/modder who wasnt getting love for his/her work. i absolutely understood the point of the rant. people *****ing at the dude for not timely fixing a minor glitch. geeze i'd be pissed t00
i guess i don't understand the importance of the "thanks" :good: button. is it incentive based? prize money for the top thanks earner. woo-hoo! or is it just an expression of gratitude? forum etiquette? or somehting else?
unfortunately, thinking i havent used the dang thing enough. nor have i made fair use of the pay pal button either. sorry to those from whose work i benefited. i'll be certain to hit both the donate and thanks buttons in the future.
thanks
Its more of a gratitude thing. It also shows on the users profile. It shows good reputation on the forums, and that they are usually helpful. The more thanks, the more helpful people find your posts. That's why usually at the end of a mod or ROM post, you'll find lots of thanks. Its a free way to show gratitude. I've looked into modding and theming and I know how crazy it is. I don't take a second to hesitate when I see something I like. Of course, if you're feeling extra generous, a donation doesn't hurt at all. Like Andy said, he made over $1,000 making mods on the inc2. I never got to donate for anything of his, as I'm a broke college student so I can't spare anything at all. However, I know his is some of the best in the business. He was an insider on many teams who have uber talented devs. A little thanks or donation always helps.
Sent from my SCH-I535 using Tapatalk 2
As mentioned above, it's all about respect and grattitude. Not everyone can donate money, and sometimes things deserve a little recognition but not quite the monetary kind
From the developer standpoint, think of it as street-cred and they want to earn it.
got it. thanks

kind of rude to make a thread about me rather than just PM me..
but whatever..
I don't get paid for someone hitting the thanks button.
It's a sign of respect within the forum.
When you put your free time and effort into a product that someone else is using and enjoying, the least they can do to show they are appreciative is to hit the thanks button, it's exactly that, saying thank you for your work.
I guess it's hard to remember what it's like to NOT know and understand.
I try to put myself back in that position, but when I spend countless hours and many late nights, leaving for a ****ty next work day to put out a theme that I don't even use... I was just kindly asked by someone, so I got to it when I had the time.
Yes I rant time to time, now being one of them, but to all those who truly know me, I think would say I am an alright guy. I can and will be a **** to you if I think it's deserved, but that's me. There's only one andybones lol
