...It would be great if you mention the preferred posts of your favorite poster.
hum..
this could be a interesting question...
maybe theymos could do a poll and assign some reward to the first, second and third qualified!!!
That would be really shady...we aren't a bank where the top ten traders get +10% reward or so
but bitcoin alk do not have some fund to promote forum activity???
I thought that bitcointalk have funds available for this.
Also, I did not think at high awards.
I thought something like 0.5btc for the first, 0.25btc for the second and 0.1btc the third ..
or something like this...
and this would only be once a year !!!
They have the funds, just really not for to 'promote forum activity' in such a way. I guess maybe some yearly competitions could be fun though this forum doesn't really seem the type to dish out money via such giveaways. I think if it was to happen it would have to be for something that couldn't be exploited and mere votes/voting could unfortunately.
Normal forum voting will definitely be exploited. But, if the voting takes place with bitcoin, i.e. each user need to spend bitcoin to vote an user and the prize value is less than the total amount of spent, then it would probably not be outright exploited. But, there might still be some possibilities of rigging.
Maybe if a vote did happen, votes would have to be tied to the account, and also you would have to be full member or higher to vote. Just a suggestion, still can be abused but probably less so.
