Congratulations, You Are The 58th Member To Post Today

[betlynjua]

I don't know if this has been suggested before.  Forgive me if it has.  If the forum has some type of counter recording how many FC members are posting, what about an incentive for being the -----th member to participate?  Not sure how it would work but that's what I've come up with so far today.

You want something on top of the $3 forum bonus?

[adrien123123]

I don't find it a good idea, its a waste of work in my opinion. Who really cares how many people posted before you?

You want something on top of the $3 forum bonus?

Not necessarily.  The bonus itself is great. Maybe if there is some kind of an incentive for members to post here, they will be drawn to participate. It's already an active forum but would other members who are not very active be more interested in posting?

You don't have to change what you are already doing.  The idea has nothing to do with you or any member having to keep a count of any posters.  Everyone who posts keeps posting like they normally do.  The counter would be from the site itself.  You submit a qualifying post, Fusion Cash alerts you by email that you are the winner and you get an incentive; whatever that incentive may happen to be.  No one who posts has any idea how many posters have contributed, they all just continue to post.  If you happen to be here on the forum at the right time, you're a winner.

The only time there is a reward for that is during post mania.  Even that hasn't happened for a while so I doubt it would happen on a regular basis

Maybe not on a regular basis, but wouldn't the occasional incentive be worth considering?  How many times can any FC member apply for any one offer?  Once? Twice? I remember filling out my profile survey and being awarded 50 cents.  That was a great incentive that I was only able to enjoy one time but that's O.K.  It was just a one time thing.  If you spend any amount of time here on the forum, as I know you do, you have most likely noticed that there are members who are doing very well and then there are some who are experiencing some problems: videos not crediting, radio not crediting, not qualifying for surveys, etc.  It can be very frustrating.  A few months ago there was a video that compensated a hefty 3 cents per view.  That's pretty good.  Shortly after that, the same video was still being offered but the viewer had to like it on facebook.  Not everyone has a facebook account.  In addition, I read posts from members who were having problems with the new set up and therefore were not being compensated at all.  If something like this will only last for a short time, so be it.  But if an idea, not necessarily this one, can be tweaked to become longer lasting, wouldn't we have more happy campers?

Not a bad idea.  Don't let the task to become monotonous.  FC can create more morale by offering more ways to earn, especially ways that are less time consuming.

I could see even more random postings than there are now.  It had already gotten so bad that admin had to put some members back on the post limit. I think if people thought there was a chance they would getting something extra for being a certain post they would just keep posting every chance they could get

One would only be able to qualify with quality posts, not random.  I can see your point though.  One word replies or smileys would not count.

Betlynjua, I like your suggestion. FC could put rules in place to keep people from over-posting and posting things that are irrelevant to make it a fair contest.

Thank you Kay.  The whole idea was to keep it simple for everyone and of course fair.  There are already standards in place here on the forum.  Admin id watching the posts.  Nothing should really change at all, just a small incentive to keep interest in the site.

lil bit of instive would be nice to those that do this all the time.

I feel the bonus is already good enough for most people to come out here on the forums. There really isn't a need to add more as it's generous enough already.

I personally feel it's sufficient also.  There are times, though, where I feel there could be a little more activity on the forum.  Maybe the incentive of winning a small token of appreciation would drive more members to post.  Not just random posts like, 'hello FC, how are you today?'.  I'm talking about posts with real substance.
