    'rewired' is an established user's sockie account which they use to pad out Thanks counts for certain users.

    Does having a Thanks count make any difference on this site?? Why would people care if there thanked?


    Ive just noticed that I have been thanked over a thousand times :cool:
    Thanks guys :D:o;)

    It's vital, RenovationMan ;)
    There are even people on here who go fleecing through who thanked who and then draw conclusions on whose sockpuppet has thanked who, then go examining log-in and log-out times and last activity, then do forum searches on used phrases and so on and so on....it's very intriguing to say the least.

    And now thank my post if you don't mind. :D

    Obviously the person behind rewired thinks it matters.

    You've got to be slightly worried about someone who spends their time doing something so pointless really, what a sad little existence some people lead.

    With that there is more hours wasted watching soap operas by many than what rewired does thanking people.

    Sorry to be pedantic.

    You're assuming that rewired's raison d'être is the posting of thanks without consideration of any factor(s). I'm happy for you to take that position, but I have no intention of limiting myself to it.

    Of course the thank count matter, as the more the bears thank themsleves the more the proof and belief that a crash is happening.
