I've already shared every thread which contained the two words "Slightlyoutofit" and "awesome".

There were so many, it took me hours.

^Perhaps you should've shared only the threads where it wasn't you that said those words. It would've made your work load a lot lighter Wink

I ignored the ones where I agreed with people.

Though, due to my overwhelming modesty, there weren't that many.

^^^^^^ too funny ...!! Laughing

I hadn't realised we could do this. Thanks Rover! I'm up for this.

Hmmm, only three posts Slightly? Laughing

I used the "recommend" feature when I spotted it yesterday as well. Nice integration Rover. Lads are goning to think, "Oooo dey here too! OOOO!"

My mistake.

It wasn't "Slightlyoutofit" and "awesome" that took me hours to recommend.

It was "Badgerbait" and "cockwallet".

I forgot to mention that in order to even the see button you will need to be logged in to the forums. Guests cannot use it.

I guess we can only share those threads that are not behind a login? Since Hector's thread is in premium (because the nitwit lad found Eater!), the people who click on the link in facebook would have to be premium members too, right?

You can link any thread you wish. But yes to answer your question if a user clicks on a link that is behind a login name they would need to register in order to read the thread.

Links that are in an open forum will include a snippet of the message text at the top of the thread (any page) and a graphic image though, so it is probably better to link in to open forum threads.
