    Hi winfia,  I give "Thumbs Ups'  alot of times.  Most people do it seems to me.  r/yvonne57

    Yvonne,winfia means TU's on comments to answers, like this one I'm writing. I won't get any points for this and I consider it extremely unfair. So,THERE !

    Thanks, digger. The only way we can get around this, it seems it to post our comments as answers. Oh, this is getting way too complicated ... Colleen, H E L P!

    You're welcome,Winfia and I'd like to give you a TU but cannot so I'll give it to Yvonne instead even though she didn't "get" your question.;-)

    me, too, Digger, because I apprecaite all the comments, not just the best answers.

    Because the app is designed to be a question and answer forum, not a discussion group. The point of the thumbs up is to acknowledge and vote for the most correct answer to the question, not to vote up just because you think someone was funny or whatever in their comments to another person.

    Really? I always seem to have such an over abundance of TUs to give ... like right now, I have 87. If I just save them for the best answer, then I'd have hundreds. What is the best answer button for, then. Hey, I'm pretty new here. Just wondering.

    Sorry to be so late in answering this, I lost electricity for a week due to the storm that hit eastern USA.

    Best answer is for the answer that bests and most correctly answers the question asked. Not the funniest or whatever, but the one that actually gives a creditable answer to the question.

    Gosh Digger, you act ike it's my fault we can't get TU's on comments.  Hey, I agree with you.  You are correct, I didn't get her question even though I read it several times.  Key word here is comments.  You don't have to feel obligated to give me any TU's but I appreciate all that I get.   r/yvonne57

    TU   2 that !!!!

    I agree and brought this up last week.  There is true brilliance to be found in the comment department!

    Thank you, fish girl - (that was my overly brilliant comment!)
