Bloody hell, I thought I was a crabby old fart! Oh no hang on, I AM a crabby old fart, I don't know what that makes you people, but complaining about someone not acknowledging an act of kindness is in another league. Seriously people, do you not see, just a little bit of hypocrisy when you complain about manners (or the lack thereof), then in the same post have a whinge about people not saying thanks for posting in a thread or sending you a message when a trade has been finalised?
I rarely, if ever, follow up on a sale or purchase after the deal is done and the goods are sent/received, I don't do this for any other purchase, either physical or over the Internet. I mean, I don't ring up the supermarket once I get my shopping home saying it got there.
When I perform an act of kindness, be that opening a door, giving up a seat, I don't do it so I receive thanks, I do it because that's what you should do, regardless of whether the recipient says anything (good or bad). I will continue to do so, because that's what I do and that's what I expect of others.
Cheers
Stuart
