Can you please add a nofollow Tag at Post Thank You ? Even the Buttons are not visible for Guests the Crawler are allways attempting to use them. Traffic that makes no sin.
I got this requested on my site only the other day, but they wanted to call it the sucks button lol, so I said no to that idea, however now that you have called it the groan button, and maybe I'll only let certain usergroups use it, I think it is a fantastic idea.
Well done.
We call ours "kicks"...since people were always *kicking* each other when something silly was said. We use a kicking smilie. Just edit your phrases (there are a few!) from groan(s) to whatever you want.

Instead of keeping a separate groan count, can this be made to subtract from a users "thank you" count? Even the ability for people to have negative points.
first of all, this is a gr8 hack like the post thanks hack. few days ago i added this on my forum. hoped it'll reduce junk/off topic posts. but what ppls were doing is for example, If i give a groan to someone, that users finding one of my older post & give groan. lol kinda like fight. so i was forced to disable it.
So Abe1, if you add these 2 options:
1. Will need reason (like reputation) to give a groan
2. cant give groan if the post if X (X = admin set) days older.
then it'll be perfect & users wont be able to abuse it.

thanks
I dont know about if I would add a reason. Just too much work on the user's part to use the hack.
As for the datys cut off, I'll put it on the list.

require reason can be ON/OFF from admincp. so its up to forum admins, if they want make it easy for the user end, but i think it should a must have option to stop abuse this hack.
