Inadvertent Groans where Thanks were intended

I'm dealing with new glasses and tired hands.... and suddenly noticed that I inadvertently groaned at a number of helpful posts for which I had meant to THANK the poster.

I'm very sorry about that. As far as I know, I think I've managed to fix that now. Please accept my apologies.

Looks good. If you're ever unsure, you can go to your profile, statistics tab, and then "find all posts groaned by". You'll see a list of the posts, and provided the timeframe for thanks/groans has not elapsed you can correct them.

Have done that as well when tired.

Worst was when I meant to give greenies to someone for an excellent post, and inadvertently gave red blobs

Since then I double check, double check, double check

Re: Inadvertent Groans where Thanks were intended

Usually happens to me with my fat fingers when using the ipad.

Meant to scroll, ended up groaning.

(Mind you, as I get older, I often groan when moving anyway...)



Regards


Ian

PS Doropfiz... good to have you back.

Yeah, I just don't get how people under about 25 use their mobiles with 2 thumbs at amazing speeds

It makes me feel so old, did I get different DNA for my thumbs

Noooo...try it. It is so much faster! Though I dislike the dominance thumbs get, in this exercise.
