Thank You Button!

As I was the main reason for this Thank You button being taken down I would like to ask you all  
How does it feel without it? Do you miss it? Is it better without it? 

All opinions welcome! 

Thank you!  

I think you were right, in that I now tend to reply with words to more posts instead of just clicking the thank you button. I think that's good for me.

However it also used to function to say "hey, I read that" even when I didn't really have anything to say, and that part doesn't really happen anymore. I used to value this feature as a writer, for assuring me that someone or other was bothering to read what I post. However, I don't think either of these reasons are particularly important reasons for possibly re-including it. I think the benefit of point #1 outweighs these second reasons.

What's everyone else thinking?

Ona pretty much expressed the way I feel about it too. Miss it a little bit but mostly fine with it being gone.
For example, I really enjoy Ona's travelogue, history, Christian spirituality and other articles arriving for free all the time but rarely have a value-added comment.

Yes I also find it nicer without it. However I do see it being of use in Ona’s log! Is there a way to only “attach” it in her log?

"Why Is Thank You Button" could be a good Koan here

If you call it a Thank You Button you oppose its reality...

To call it reality you oppose its Thank You Button …

Just asking for clarification.

He's teasing me because I said I like the feedback of knowing someone read my posts, even though I don't otherwise think the Thank You button is worth having. So he suggested (joking) to just put it on my thread.
