Should point system be incorporated with a Teen Advice Foru

[carmidy]

Some say yes and some say no... What do you think?

 

[Joshua Farrell]

Depends on how the teen forum is set up, and if you are going to use the point system to let your members get free things.

No, I own one and it doesn't work.

 

[Bejay]

It's a good idea and a bad idea. How are you planning to use it?

 

[Fergal]

Why do you want to give points, what advantage will it bring to your community, and more importantly to your members?

The danger with points is that it often encourages members to post just for the points, and the quality of those posts can fall as a result.
