Chip, There are many good ideas, but there has to be a prize at the end of it all. Maybe software, or an all expense paid trip to visit Mr Bill Gates and share a dinner and wine. ::)

One of the most obvious ones would be.

At the risk of double posting. Does Chip realise we are only talking about $4 of his hard earned money. ;)

well... I am guessing.. but chip is in college... and 99.9% of college students are broke... therefore $10 is a lot of money

OK.. effective immediately...  if someone posts a new topic that you find interesting, give them +2 karma points.. also, give the next person to reply a karma point (first reply bonus :)).   that way, if you start a topic, you should get like 10-20 karma points (because probably 5-10 members found that topic interesting) and the first reply should get another 5-10 karma points for being active :)

hows that for starters around here?


we will also start more of these competitions soon, I like the typo's game, and other things like that..

PS, don't forget that everything is being paid out of my pocket because i like the forums and making software is a hobby, so if there's anything i can do to improve stuff camaraderie around here, let me know!
Not too bad Chip. Certainly give us an incentive to earn points. ;D
Now if I can only stop Billy hitting my smite button again. :-X
cheers.
PS. apart from your ps and dont, you did well. ;D

-kyopedlr

Of course 10$ is a lot of money for students. I' ll better save them, it is a price for 2 pages essays that I usually order at theessayservice (https://theessayservice.org/buy-book-review/), and I'd better save them for future.
