Default Use the thanks button to show your appreciation

So I understand the concept: don't clutter the threads with thank your comments; instead just show your appreciation by clicking the "Thanks" button.

But with the "Thanks" button, there is no way to distinguish between 1) that is one of the best posts in this thread, and 2) not really my favorite, but I'm glad you contibuted.

So I try to use the "Thanks" button selectively, but feel bad when I do not "Thank" a post in a thread I participate in. It's not that I don't appreciate the contribution, but "thanking" almost every post dilutes the "Thanks" for the posts I really like (and want to encourage more similar posts).

I don't believe a private messages is the answer. Not sure what the answer is.

Maybe I just wish there was a "super thanks" or similar--limited to once a day, once an hour, once every 10 Thanks, or some other way to show I REALLY REALLY liked the post.

Not sure I am even posting this in the right forum.
