Ways to tart up Forumbuildr scoring

One: Create a basement score. I suggest -4. No matter how Log in to see images! a player is, they always have a minimum number of posts available. In this example, three. This seems low, but it ties in nicely with the next idea.

Two: Encourage participation. If a player votes on a good percentage of the posts, give them a +1 that cannot take them over zero. This will encourage the terminally unfunny basement dwellers to stay involved. With any luck, some of them will actually read the posts and learn to not suck.

Three: Punish idleness. In the course of the week a player fails to post anything OR fails to vote on a minimum number of posts, give them a -1 that cannot take them under zero. If they commit both crimes, that’s -2 to a minimum of zero. Going on an extended vacation to some third-world hellhole where you won’t have internet access? Boode****inghoo, here’s your -2, you won’t be online to complain about it anyway, ****.

Four: E-Peens. Get a Forumbuildr leader board up, and give e-peens for…

Log in to see images!top weekly gainer

Log in to see images!top overall score

Log in to see images!top weekly gain for a clan

Log in to see images!top overall clan.

Beyond pleasing E-peen ****s such as myself, this will further encourage quality production. In conjunction with the “punish idleness” factor, the “overall” e-peens will always be at least theoretically accessible and therefore always a legitimate goal encouraging quality. The clan weekly gain e-peen will favor clans that favor talented members over hordes of retards churning out -35 each.
