Jangles, out of curiosity do you employ or deploy this pay it forward and generosity mentality in real life?
Like say to police, teachers, firemen, good neighbors etcetc?
This is why 'thank you' threads are just as bad as 'I hate you' threads.
They name people without permission and put them under a spotlight(for good or bad actions). It's equally intrusive and inappropriate and getting a hundred tells from new players asking for money because "I was told you're nice" isn't fair on that player.
You're only here talking about it, not because you genuinely believe they deserve to be honored but because YOU want to share good news with others because it makes YOU feel good.
They were generous to you, to YOU. So be humble and say thank you.
But also just as important, be gracious and keep it private - have some respect.
If no one else should ever know that they are nice..fine, though you know and that's what is important.
(TMO comes to mind right? Lots of hate on the forums, but individually we've all met and enjoyed their company. We don't need to mention it here, it won't change people's perception of them, and it won't change how we enjoy the way they treat us in game).
Threads like these are of as little value to the forums as the RED server jerk-each-other off posts.

Someone missed the sarcasm of Yendors post...sad sad day.
I guess there always has to be at least 1 mood killer per thread and it only took 3 pages to find ours for this one!
