Rewards for successful threads?

I like the idea on "paper" but:

- Quality, not quantity
- It is ever so rare, like you said to get 1000 meaningful posts which debate etc.

Mabey several factors should be in place?

For instance:
Post count
View count
Sitckied or not?
If the moderator assigning the award believes it is constructive or not

and so on..

Could do a member of the month style thing, hand pick the top 3 threads that month in each section? Maybe.

I like it.

i'm guessing the criteria would still be:

Constructive or not.
Posts
Views

and so on.

Surely that's what Member of the Month is anyway really, at least I certainly consider creators of good threads when making nominations.

I always thought MOTM normally is those wo contribute the most and the best constructivley over a number of threads. Rather than posting one decent thread then not posting in that section again.

If you see what i mean.

And it's probably best not to do 3 from each section but mabey the 3 best of the month?

Well, it depends, in the past users who have created one thread which went down an absolute storm and remained in peoples minds therefore they were awarded member of the month for contributions to that section - one thread can contribute a lot depending upon the discussion.

An example of this is when lorren won Member of the Month in feedback for posting one of the most substantial and well-recieved feedback threads Habbox has seen in a long while.

If there are good threads, people should be +repping the OP, we have member of the month award for those that contribute threads etc to the forum.

I'm guessing that is what i got my MOTM for entertainment when i posted my lost thread which nealy reached 4k posts.
But on the topic of repping the creator, that happens very rarley. On my thread i may of got 1 or 2 + reps. And i don't believe i ever + rep a thread starter. Only people who have been helpful or made me laugh in a post.
I believe this is the feeling of many and thats why i think there needs to be a new system for those who make constructive threads that are well recieved around the forum.

Alternatively we could simply encourage the +repping of the OP of good threads, rather than starting a new prize system and giving more prizes out - prizes will start to lose their value eventually.

But how could we encourage +repping, no matterhow much people say to rep more i still don't feel the urge to give ti unless they have done somthing that has directly helped or amused me which is rarley.

Hence why i suggestedthe like / dislike buttons.

It's a hrad loop were stuck in.

People need to stop being so stingy with rep, we can't make up for what people won't give.
