Position of Thanks button

Options
I'm sure I saw a discussion somewhere quite recently about moving the thanks button to the left hand side of the screen.

I have just accidentally thanked a post because having clicked to turn the page over, my mouse pointer was directly in line with the thanks button, and being on a laptop with a very sensitive touchpad, it went off without my intention.

Now I am nervous of giving inappropriate thanks, so have to keep checking where my mouse pointer is in relation to the area of the text. I am all for the idea of moving it out of the vertical range of the page numbers, so is this still under review?
:D I haven't bogged off yet, and I ain't no babe :D

    I think putting it in the middle would be a great idea. To the left it would be just above the Post Reply button for the last post on the thread, so one could be thanking that in error. I think the middle position is the safest.
    Be careful who you open up to. Today it's ears, tomorrow it's mouth.
