MSE message posting

This is driving me mad, whenever I post a message I get the following icons in the bottom right of the message

edit.gif quote.gif

instead of

post_thanks.gif quote.gif.


How can I change the Edit to Thanks. I never used to have this problem

    You can't thank your own posts.......you can however edit them

    You see Thanks & Quote in others posts and this is how they see yours.
    In their own posts they see Edit & Quote the same as you see in yours. ;)
