A Simple 'Winks' Feature?

I've been chewing this thought over for a couple of days about maybe starting a thread like the "Say something Nice" thread, but pointed more toward just a shout out at those you appreciate who post here. Upon further thought, the thread could get large and some people may not get to find a shout about them.

I wondered at a simple send a 'wink' type feature. If someone has posted something that you feel worthwhile, or just as a sign of appreciation that they are posting here. I realise there is the PM system, but sometimes it can also be difficult to word just a simple appreciation, and sometimes there can be a 'fear' about it being such a personal thing - maybe this person doesn't want to be PM'd.

I think sometimes some people might feel that their input here may not be making much of a difference sometimes, so just receiving an odd wink here and there could make a world of difference. Most people I have spoken to appreciate that they are appreciated, and have been more overwhelmed that they are at least appreciated if not even noticed.

It might be too much of a touchy, feely, warm fuzzy thing than anything else, I do know I can be like that But I thought there was no harm in bringing this in to discuss, throw around, change, add to, or completely can!

What are the thoughts?
