PM is not suitable for everyone, nor is Community participation. Anyone participating just for the Rewards will be sorely disappointed with the payout for the effort needed. If it brings no joy spend your energy helping some other organization. For example, I have been away for a bit using my energy to help a friend.
That's what Ralph says anyway. He's been irked lately because he's been missing a spot in the limelight. Wearing the correct colander is a must to catch his thoughts though.

Ralph looks hungry.
I think that the rewards definitely contribute to people being here, but it shouldn't be the sole or main reason. I don't believe anyone is going to come out and say that they don't want the rewards - I mean - of course we do. And the community rewards just happen to make it so that it's possible to get a very inexpensive cell phone plan. The payout really is nothing, espcially considering that there are only so many top spots available. The friendly competition means that you have to spend many hours in a month to get the $15 amount. I would say that I average 2 hours per day, easy. Total that up to 60 hours in a month, and that $15 means $0.25/hour. Even spending that amount of time doesn't even guarantee that payout. If I simply go for a walk for an hour, I could possibly find more than that 25 cents in dropped coins on the sidewalk.

I had to take a prolonged time off for personal reasons. I see some new names on here. Look forward to catching up and interacting with you all.
Thank you to all those who participate and make our community so wonderful.
Personal issues or saving lives in the ER should always take priority over peoples phone service. Don't sweat it 
The irony to me is asking a Luddite to unionize a group of people who use cell phones
Bad history with machines and all
We better make sure they never find out where Simon's program is being stored
Asking @Luddite to unionize
@will13am wrote:You have a point. The top contributors need to unionize and lobby for even better working conditions. I nominate @Luddite as our illustrious president as when he talks, the decision makers listen. The community forum is far more valuable to Public Mobile than the the Koodo forum is to the Koodo service. We need reward paritiy adjusted by forum importance.
