Anandtech needs to have some sort of point rewarding system

Page 2 - Seeking answers? Join the AnandTech community: where nearly half-a-million members share solutions and discuss the latest tech.
Crying for something on Anandtech has as much of a chance of happening as enacting change in the US government.

It's not going to happen.
 
I think christianforums.com has some sort of "blessings" reputation. And I think if you have a paid subscription, you can hand out more blessings.

Pretty silly concept, but I think it works as currency to get the quality and helpfulness of posts up...

just like other have said.. if you want to reward the person who helped you.. paypal it jigga...

Amen. I also hate forums where you can rate threads/posts.

"OMG OP I just gave you green, damn man this is smooooooooookin' hot!!!!"

Out of curiosity, do you think it makes the overall forum a better place though?
 
I think when you receive help it is nice to show graciousness through a simple PM, and then try to help that person in anyway you can.
 

I'd rather see Anandtech put a mandatory spell-check on the reply box, so it won't post until the spellin's right. Ha
 
Why bother with a point system.

It will still be about the post count. For some reason sitting in front of your computer all day and posting makes you smarter than everybody else.

I can't believe how many 20,000+ poster's words are accepted as gospel. It's ironic, because if they spent more time living, instead of posting about it maybe they would actually be an authority on something.

I just though about this when someone helped me try to find a song that I heard in a movie.

nice idea but it would be abused

Kinda like the user rating system we used to have was abused.

I didn't mind it, it was kinda fun 🙂

We do have a rewards system in place...if you're helpful enough, you get to be an Elite member.
