How about a button that allows you to 'Agree' with a post that allow you to second, or third, etc. a person's post?
So, if someone likes a post post, then they will 'second' that post. A third person would 'third' the post, etc.
I know the "Thanks' button is there, but it seems a little weird to pop into a thread, read through it, say thanks to someone that made a valid point(that you agree with), all without having posted in the thread before. This way, the forum can put its weight behind an idea.
If a couple people post a bunch of ideas in a thread, an inexperienced person may take bad advice from someone else. This would help figure out which post to trust.
It would show people agreeing with a post without coming up with 10 characters to say it in...
