    Default Post ing a "Thank you" to a response.

    If one posts a query on a forum & has several answers posted is it necessary/polite to thank each poster individually or can a collective "thanks" be posted? I don't want to appear ungrateful but at the same time don't want to clog up the forum with something that may not be necessary.

    There's no rule but I usually just say "thanks all for your input" or words to that affect, unless one person in particular has been especially helpful, in which case I would address a thank you to that person and then finish with 'thanks all". I don't think anyone will get upset if you don't thank them individually. What annoys people is when there is no follow up post expressing thanks at all.
    "I don't practice what I preach because I'm not the kind of person I'm preaching to."

    Or when someone sends you a PM asking for advice/info, (in my case questions about whether something was still for sale, and at what price, which was in the post) you take the time to reply, and you get no acknowledgment of your reply back.

    Then, 2 weeks later, after you have opened negotiations with someone else, the original PM'er cracks the sads as they believe that they had first dibs on it.

    Common courtesy would be to return a thanks.

    Default Thanks.

    Thanks for the input fellas. I posted a couple of "thank yous" where I thought it necessary and a collective one in other instances.
    Regards.
