>>How about a model that credits members when they contribute and that contribution is acknowledged by other members. For example (nb: you might need to analyze and tweak the numbers):
>>
>>1) Each time a member gets awarded 1 star (a help star) by the community they get CAD1 added to their credit balance.
>>
>>2) Each time a member gets awarded a solution star by the community they get CAD5 added to their credit balance.

>Don't go there. You'd have members reminding the recipients of solutions to award the stars... stinks of Microsoft forums with wannabe MVPs trying to gain recogni$ion.
funny :)
