Is there a way for threads to be "agreed with" and have that be counted?

Sorry if the title/gist of it is messy.

I'd like to have a "Requests" section, where in each thread there's a button for users to press, 1 "I agree" for each thread, and have that be shown in the threads list to show how many people agree with that thread.

Similar to rating threads, but I just want a binary "click to agree" type thing, and that's it.

Any mod that's close or anything of the sort?

Thanks in advance for your time and help.

The "Post Thank You" hack sounds like your best bet. It's quite similar to what you're describing and you could probably modify it quite easily to change "Thank" to "Agree".

The main issue there is that mod ties the thanks to posts, as opposed to threads, which is what I need.

Any tips?

Thanks.

Only allow people to use Thanks in the first post. That way, it is tied to the thread.

Wow, I dunno how I missed that.

That should work. One more major hurdle: Do you know where a "tally" of how many people have thanked the OP is held? I'd need that to be able to keep track, as I'd want a column in the thread list showing how many people want that request also.

Thanks so much so far and for all the assistance.

I'm also having an issue moving the actual vote button. Where exactly is it kept? To maintain continuity with my current theme, it'd be much more in place somewhere near the Post Reply buttons. Any help?

Thanks again guys.
