The 'Thanks' button could be open to the public and not to the logged in members only.
There is many a time where I have searched for something and would love just to give a thanks or an upvote because it was just what I was looking for.
It doesn't need to be hidden until logged in after all it is just a counter and you get the word 'Guest' appear on your post, whether the post is locked or not, to acknowledge the fact.
On the front page you could mention:
"If you have found a solution to your query please press the 'Thanks', <icon_here>, button on the relevant post(s)."
Yes, it's doable, of course.

Yes, it keeps getting faster as I consolidate code, clean up CSS and JS, and get rid of image files and replace them with fast loading CSS text-based icons, etc. It will be even faster when I make more changes to the code.
Since I'm the only coder coding the site at this time, I have no choice but to prioritize; and the priority is to get rid of obsolete code, especially table tags.
We cannot keep these table tags, it is too constraining and someday soon, table tags will be completely obsolete in HTML.
