I've found way more than 16 things than I like, of which you of course insinuate. What can say; I just don't hit the "thanks" button often. I fully understand that most regular contributors gauge the popularity of threads via this function, and also appreciate some thanks, but evidently I'm just not particularly bothered to use this function. After lurking for many years on various forums I've started to contribute via uploading files, and nice as it is to receive "likes" and "thanks" I don't really care about them and don't increase/decrease "output". However, I see it as "giving back" and also I only regurgitate what I find online, so your and my perception would differ. It's also quiet habitual; I sometimes think that I should hit the button more often, but then usually forget about it and only once in a while when something really makes me stop to think do I occasionally thank the uploader.
For what it's worth: thanks for putting in the time and effort of contributing frequently on this board!
