Internet requests

I have commented on this before and "classic life" expressed similar irritation. Over the weekend I received two emails about a listing I have on Car and Classics's webpage. Strangely, for some reason, they have stopped taking listings for parts.
However, one chap asked if I had a specific part, I had a look, couldn't find one and sent him a short email. He replied, something of an unusual event in itself, thanking me for trying. The second was someone I suspected of being a "keyboard bore". ie they asked for a list of what I might have for sale. I suggested he send me a list of what he wanted and add a short list. Needless to say I have heard nothing more.
There has been something on this forum. Some weeks ago someone posted a request for information about his car rebuild. I did not have the answer, consulted with someone who did and sent this forum member a PM with the information he sought. Now this member is not in the UK but unless he's been using "google translate" his English was good enough to answer the question but lacking when it came to a short message of thanks.
I have asked before if this forum could have a "thanks" icon so that other members who had learned from the reply could express their thanks. It exists on one the car forum and it's similar to the "like" icon on facebook.
