Lynne, I think that overall we do get thanked, we just may not see it.
There are times over the years that I have given info to people and then read in their JBR that they used that info well.
That to me is probably more of a thanks than seeing a heap of postings with the title 'Ta' or 'Thanks NTIP' (Sorry Carlos);-)
A Forum full of that would drive me nuts.
Manners are an integral part of our society, but, these bloody computers and the SMS nuts have shaved our language down to not much more than grunts and groans again. It's all a matter of interpreting the response (or lack of) and feeling that your part of the exchange was worthwhile.
Just an opinion
