    Thanks not available

    I was wanting to thank Elmo for their gorgeous Lentil soup recipe but the thanks option is not available. Looking through a few hotpot threads most have it but a few don't.

    Is there a reason for this? I can't see anything in a FAQs or searching.

    Hmm, I can't thank on any threads started by Elmo.

    Re: Thanks not available

    Maybe because the thread is from 2007 when there was no thanks button.....

    Yeah, go back far enough and the post becomes unthankable.

    Must be the age of some of the posts because none of them until #20 can be thanked.

    I was wondering if age might have something to do with it. Do you know if it is a policy or technical matter? I can't think of a reason for either off the top of my head.

    It's a policy. Only relatively recent posts can be thanked. I wasn't involved in that decision, so can only guess, but I'd say it's because the thanks system is supposed to be about recent activity, not very old threads.

    just because a post is old, doesnt stop it being useful to someone though
