It seems a bit strange, but if etiquette dictates that a poster is thanked if you read their post, then that's what I'll do.4kWp (black/black) - Sofar Inverter - SSE(141°) - 30° pitch - North LincsInstalled June 2013 - PVGIS = 3400Sofar ME3000SP Inverter & 5 x Pylontech US2000B Plus & 3 x US2000C Batteries - 19.2kWh0

I see it as being similar to the "like" button on Facebook.
Example. Sky News post a story that an airliner has crashed into the Indian Ocean. People "like" that post. They don't like that the airliner has crashed! It's just a way of acknowledging someone's input into an online discussion. Afterall, what would the forum be if people didn't make the effort to post?0 -

I've just realised too that I won at the O's yesterday.
I'd just like to thank Fronius, the Installers and the Sun Gods for making this possible.

How do you remove a "thanks" having given it?
I have osteoarthritis in my hands so I speak my messages into a microphone using Dragon. Some people make "typos" but I often make "speakos".0 -
If you look at the line where it says "The Following User(s) Say(s) Thank You to (whoever) For This Useful Post:" you'll find that if you have already thanked somebody there will be a place to click saying "remove your thanks".Sterlingtimes wrote: »How do you remove a "thanks" having given it?
N.B. the wording is definitely "For This Useful Post:" and not "for bothering to post something". Having read that, I make a point of using the button sparingly so that anyone who receives my thanks realises that I really mean it rather than just clicking on everything that appears.NE Derbyshire.4kWp S Facing 17.5deg slope (dormer roof).24kWh of Pylontech batteries with Lux controller BEV : Hyundai Ioniq50 -
