An updated reward system

[jheili99]

Hi..

if rewards are based on community support ( bravos etc. ) i think it's time to overhaul this system as it can be easily fooled.... example: if i have 4 lines and 4 accounts but only use 1 user id to actually post /help others, i can use my other 3 to give myself one bravo after the other bringing myself up in the ranks in a hurry thus earning potentially undeserved rewards... i have seen that now a few times with people, who are just 1 week with PM but are already in the top 5 or so with very little posts but tons of bravos...

or:

a post like "hi xxxxxx great post" suddenly receives 5-10 bravos without any merrit or info to it.....

just a "food for thought" ..

cheers

I have read that Bravo's are not the only determining factor and I agree the Bravo system can be abused.

Here are a couple of threads i started on the subject with what I have noticed

The difference in account credits is only up to $6

And thats even assuming the boosting works as mods have punished people in past for cheating
