Agreed. Howsomever, it's better to be judicious in your thanks. If someone's already said thanks, and you don't REALLY like the post, then don't post. Once is enough. If you're an appreciation wh*r*, then that's just as bad, in my opinion. Some posts I make don't get a single reply. And that's fine. They're usually the ones that are merely OK, and that I probably wouldn't reply to. It's not a popularity contest--and just like posting doesn't make your dick bigger, it doesn't grow when you get more comments.
