How About This?

Hi Bros,

We want more participation and want new members to feel part of the forum.

Many bros only punt when on business trips or holidays but would still like to feel part of the forum when on their down time. They would still like an opportunity to earn Karma and move through the ranks even if not punting.

What makes members feel part of the group here?
Karma points.

So let's make them easier to gain / earn.

1) Allow members to earn Karma points in the Intel section
2) Allow members to earn Karma points in the Mongering Talk section
3) Allow members to earn Karma points in the Lounge section


This is how it was many years ago and there was much more participation. All very easy to change in the Discuz platform which we use.
Have a look at some old members statistics, they have a high RA rating for not many actual punt reports. They still felt part of the forum.

4) Always give Karma to posts you read!

FFS! How many times do you see a good report get Karma points from 10 bros but 300 bros have read the report. Even when the report has an RA of 30 where every reader is capable of leaving a few Karmas. This is my biggest bugbear by far!

I am very confident these simple changes to the system and our attitudes to issuing Karma points would get the forum back to it's glory days.
