Like a special nameplate or an extra prefix title.

Something that will get people to create more threads.

Hmm...
There's a nifty shop mod that I was half-considering installing that would be an excellent motivator (you'd earn "credits" to buy nameplates with).

The problem with this is that it would most probably cause lots of shitposts with no discussion value.

I'd go with this. We don't need more threads, just more actual people replying. Some get hundreds and others get like, 5.

Perhaps you could earn a credit if a mod deems your thread worthy based on the discussion value. Or you don't earn a credit until it gets that hot topic marker.

Thats why we have the nameplates are based on post count.

What? The nameplates (most of them) are free to put on whenever you'd like.

I meant the titles, sorry.

We knew the world would not be the same.
A few people laughed, a few people cried, most people were silent.
I remembered the line from the Hindu scripture, the Bhagavad-Gita.
Vishnu is trying to persuade the Prince that he should do his duty
and to impress him takes on his multi-armed form and says,
"Now, I am become Death, the destroyer of worlds.."
I suppose we all thought that one way or another.

What if you get credits for OP upvotes?
(that would mean making sure you can't exploit the "like" button though)

Instead of quantity, I think we should be focusing more on quality. I think it would be a great idea to have likes on posts count towards someone's title status. It would have to be made foolproof to avoid abuse, of course, but I rarely remember to give people a karma vote whereas I find myself constantly liking quality posts by quality users. Seems like it would be nice to have that contribute to one's forum rank.
I kind of like the idea of using points to purchase nameplates instead.
Make them worth 20-30 likes a pop or something.

I think Cheat said he didn't tie likes to titles because it could be abused.

Your idea has merit, but it sounds difficult to implement.

Titles and nameplates are different though.
But yeah, as long as the like system is tweaked so it can't be abused.

But then Zesty will make more threads :/
Let's face it.
Zesty should be permad for the spam.
He hasn't actually stopped, the only reason the sewage flow abated was because he was under the watch of mods.
It's a waste of mod's time to bother with that crap.

That sounds like a good idea, but what you pointed out is a major flaw.

It really doesn't, 1 thread on the subject is enough :)

The angel agreed to trade a set of white wings for the head of another demon. Overjoyed, the demon killed one of his own and plucked the head right off its still-warm body.

The angel then led the demon to heaven, where he underwent centuries of the cruelest tortures imaginable. Finally, the pain was so great that he lost consciousness - at which point his dark wings turned the promised shade of white.
That still wouldnt encourage me to make anything.
Well...thats my problem, im not creative...or at least when i try to be.
