Member Appreciation - A Place to Thank Those Who Need Thanking

jefflang007 on 03/03/2023 - 18:54

I wondered if there was a page to thank others who are simply great people by helping you outside of a thread or even in one where it gets obfuscated. I could not see one. So here, post #1

In this circumstance, I Smell Pennies is an honest, all round great guy. Thanks pal!

      Aww, @jv just liked your comment too..
      I thought he’d just ignore it.

    I appreciate users like @jefflang007 for trusting other strangers on this platform. We need more trust around here so we can have a better community. Especially many reps such as @tightarse

    There’s so many people I want to thank so I’ll stay quiet but if you see me thanking any OP on their post, there goes my appreciation.

    And I’d like to thank myself selfishly because this post probably wouldn’t have happened if I did nothing to contribute

      Wow thanks @SpainKing!! I'm so glad I was able to help you out. For big purchases personally, I do heaps of research so that I know I've given it my best shot at making a good decision that I'll be happy with - I hate the feeling of making poor or wasteful decisions. So when you commented on my laptop review I just knew I had to try my best to help you make your own best decision. I hope the laptop you landed on is working wonders for you :)

      P.s. I'm doing well - just the other day I booked some flights to Europe and scored an extra 90k Qantas points thanks to OzBargain. Looking forward to my first ever visit to Europe! (Italy & Switzerland). I'd like to thank @magwri for the post that helped me with the Qantas points. I'd also like to thank @Guke for the awesome tennis racket deal which has helped me get into my new hobby :)
