Post Rating Threads and Thanking Users
I've seen these options on other forums, and I think they could be used here quite well.

I'd like to see threads get a good rating, and the option to thank users in posts.

If I'm gone for a week, don't fret HikiCulture.
If I'm gone for a month, it's no big deal.
If six months pass by, something is up.
If I'm gone for a year, assume that I am dead.

I'd need to be able to upload files via FTP in order to implement this. I could only do this if I'd buy paid hosting from the host which costs $8.95/month for the basic paid hosting. I don't want to pay for it myself as I don't have spare money. I may eventually put up a PayPal donate button for people to donate money for us to get paid hosting, but I'll only do this if there's enough interest.

Post Re: Rating Threads and Thanking Users
I think a "Like" button would be more effective, as most users ignore ratings and it results in threads with 5 stars and other with none. I agree about the "Thanks" button though, I like it.

Post Re: Rating Threads and Thanking Users
I was going to say this is a good idea... (at least rating threads)
A thanks button would let a lot of users sneak on by without posting :halo

Hmm... Ever thought of opening a Paypal Donation button somewhere? Then you could get funding you needed and you could upgrade/customize the forum as deemed necessary!

Did you pay for the domain name?
