What does "reputation" sound like for our forums? With a rep system people will start being more helpful, and will post more thoughtful replies\posts in hopes of getting higher reputation. This might be worthless now, but when we have much more players I think it'll do a good job. Thoughts?
A fault of having a rep system, is some people might give rep points to a friend and give negative rep points to someone they don't like, not on the basis of that person contributing a useful post/thread. If only forum moderators were the only one's that could give reputation points, then I would trust that system more. But from other forums I see, the whole rep system is usually abused.
Heres an idea that came to mind.
We could have a most thoughtful post of the month/week, where whoever posts gets a reward of ingame items. If some users would be willingly to donate a few items that could work. Also we could have a challenge where somebody tries to make a useful guide. And the person who makes the most useful, and entertaining guide wins a prize, possibly a forum title or ingame items from people who are willingly to donate. I am willingly to donate a few items if this were to happen.
