Rep vs thank

[derrabe]

Is there a difference? If so what is it? If a person has been thanked 100's of times I would assume they are reputable.

Its my experience here that Rep points are a lot harder to earn than thanks. You can post a picture thread once in a while with some amazing animals and get many thanks but it usually requires a pretty well thought out post to earn a positive rep.

ya i give out thanks like pennies. but i give out rep when i read a post and go "oh dam. thats true!" or "whoa, hes totally right!" or "good point" etc..

Thank you both for your response.

Sometimes you get thanked because you helped someone with a question .Then sometimes you get rep and thanked at the same time lol
