Default A Thanks box?

Another forum that I'm on has a "Thanks" box alongside the "Quote" box that we now have.

So if someone has posted a helpfull hint or comment you just use the "Thanks" box. Your Thanks is then automatically added to others directly under the helpfull post.

Like this....
"The Following 28 Users Say Thank You to Celtric For This Useful Post:" It then goes on to add the posters name and date of the Thanks.

Could this be done here and maybe help save bandwith or avoid clogging the thread with pages of thank you posts?.....

Sounds like a great idea there. I wouldn't mind seeing something like that too.

An upgrade in the software is due first but I like the idea, have used it on other forums.
