Then it devolved into this thankfest thing that, while stroking the uploader's ego, is absolutely useless for any real purpose.
This whole 'thanks whoring' thing is a fairly recent phenomenon, and is in fact a bastardization of what the feature was intended for.
Personally, the # of people who download one of my uploads tells me far more about whether or not I did good than any number of 'Thank You!s' ever will.
