    Default Thanks / Thanked (?)

    Don't laugh. Please don't laugh. I'm fragile.

    In the little profile info on the left side of the posts, one can see tallies for both "Thanks" and "Thanked". It seems obvious that one is the Thanks you've received, and one is the Thanks you have given to others.

    Which is which?

    I keep forgetting that button is THERE so whichever one is smaller on my thingy is probably how many times I've thanked people. Unless I'm just really unhelpful and they'll both be small. Also, I guess I'm not grateful enough, I promise I can do better!

    Woaw! I didn't even notice this until you posted this. (So, no, not laughing at all.) That's kinda cool to see you are as thankful as you are thanked!
