What I noticed is that if I thank you then remove my thanks, your number of thanks goes down by 1.

Nice hack, however you did it.

LOL, what normally causes that is when a poster is the only one to give thanks to a specific post and then decides to remove that "Thanks", then the 4 Billion number shows up..

This is actually a VBulletin bug that is well known, but has never been fixed
