My old site Sailormoon.org had this system called kudos. I think that it would be cool to have something like that here.
Its kinda complicated so I'll take my time and explan this fully.
Kudos are like compliments. They are given from one member to the other as a way of congratulating them on an execptional post. Each member gets a certian number per month depending on the Star ranking. (eg: 1 star might get three, 2 might get five... ex)
On Sailormoon.org you needed a certian number of Kudos to achieve the higher levels. (eg: To become a 'Moonatic' you had to have 10 kudos and have been on the site for over a year) ~Note:don't do the year thing please! That felt like it took forever!~ You could say... that mabye you need 4 kudos to become a two Star, just to go along with the other in place critera.
This could convince members to write posts of higher quality also it makes people read the posts more carefully because they had to be careful how the spent there x number of Kudos for the month.
Just an Idea!

Hmm... intriguing... *still trying to get head around idea* I'm a little slow LOL. That could be like... if a member reached a certain number of "kudos", I could give them a particular custom title...?

That could be a part of it.
The point is to try to convince people to make higher quality posts by rewarding them for the extended use of their time.
If you want only moderators could give out Kudos to people they think are deserving. That might allow you to keep more control over the system.

Yeah... well I'd only want a few people to do it, so as not to cause confusion and everything... I guess if we did do this we could start a topic in the "unrelated stuff" section and post messages saying "so and so made an excellent post/point in this section, I'm awarding them so many points, blah blah..." etc...
Is that the idea?

You've got the basic idea. Now you just have to think up a suitable goal from them to work towards.
~", I could give them a particular custom title...? ~
That could work. Whatever you think would be a good goal basicaly

Ok then... well, guess we'll see what other people think of this idea then... Then we can figure out who would be the ones to give out the points and all that (most likely you, because you came up with the idea, and me, and maybe a third and possibly fourth person...)

They way they did it at TN (teamnicole) *one of the best sites along with this one* Took away the number of posts completely, they also took away the status number/stars. This way ppl aren't just posting for status... But I like this idea as well although the confusion is beyond beleif over here... I say we should give it a try, I am always up for posting meaningful posts. The admin at TN always hated ppl posting 'fluff' posts, of a post containing only lol, or me too, those silly things that otherwise could have been avoided. Go for it!
