I absolutely love the up-vote buttons that appear below posts. It's so cool to see rightful comments get a ton of love when a good point is made.
But, I'm a little confused about the "thumbs-up" vs "thanks" buttons.
When should one be used over the other?
Is "thanks" stronger than "thumbs-up"?
Also, does the "confused" button actually mean "confused"?
It would be nice if there was an explicit "thumbs-down" button for poor/lazy points.
IMO, the stackoverflow system is great since there is no ambiguity.
Thoughts?
PS: Thanks @SDS eternally for this superb site that I've visited daily for more than a decade.
