Save / Share at the bottom of threads

I have noticed a new Save / Share button on the bottom of evrey thread.
Could be useful but personally i dont use it.

How many social bookmarking sites are there? These things are becoming an epidemic! As with any of these sexy little features, the choice of which ones to use is up to you.

Jeremy,

I was just moving my mouse down to the Quick Reply box to reply to a thread and it happened to pass over this damn thing and just as I was clicking in the Quick reply box to give it focus the share/save thing popped up right were I was going to click and I ended up choosing one of the options unintentionally.

Any chance of repositioning this new share/save toolbar to help avoid this, or perhaps have it so you have to click on it rather than it pop up on a mouse-over?

@ GazL :
You can ask 'Adblock Plus' to hide it / filter it away.
( Right click on the disturbing item ).

And no other functions seems to be influenced.

Jeremy,

I agree with GazL: Please disable the mouse-over and make this clickable only. I will personally never ever use it.

And I know you can disable it with a blocker, but that is not the point (there's way to many LQ related stuff that already needs blocking)

Thanks for the suggestion knudfl, but I don't use adblock as I prefer to keep the extentions down to a minimum. 90% of the time I'm using opera anyway.

It's not a big problem, I can avoid it now by training myself to put the pointer over to one side before I scroll down, but I did find it frustrating when this stupid thing popped up and got in my way. Especially, as I'll never want to use use it anyway.

I can work around it. I only posted here as I thought Jeremy might appreciate the feedback that this thing can be a potential annoyance to users.

The behavior has been changed so the popout will only appear when the button is clicked. Thanks for the feedback.

@jeremy: Thanks!

Thanks Jeremy, that's much better.
