Ya here we get instant reply of any question and that really a good place to share our view......
Yes now a days many members are participating in forums so it increased.
Elaborated responses has to be encouraged to have better quality contents. I also beleive they should fix some number of words to get 5 points as there is no way that someone gets 5 points for good quality and someone gets the same number of points for even an irrelevant responses.There should be a check on it. :)
Sanjeev due to the 5 points only many members are here other wise less members participate here.

You can see it is second day how many members are in leader board. You can see rock star she is asha singh but working chandan who is blocked.
Hey i am not agree with you understand what you want to say..........from very first day i got instruction from sarala to do forum once again not read article in hurry understand.
You mea you are no more reading articles, that is very strange. I always read a few articles every day to know what my friends are writing. That gives me a better idea to improve my own articles.
No previously i do when i am new to boddunan i am not aware of th fact.......

Many discussion forums have this criteria to get points or earnings.You need to post a certain number of sentences or words relevant to the discussion topic.


Ever one thinks the same way who comes from other forums but as I always say, one gets used to what members are doing on a particular site. Just imagine doing it on other forums and ......


Personally I feel that in a discussion there should not be generalised responses of a few words or short sentences , they should contribute and take the discussion forward instead of limiting it and members can be paid according to their contribution.
Ya you are right but it all depend on admin and we are unable to do anything.

I too feel that it should be so ! If each one gets the same number of points irrespective of the quality and quantity of the post it can be demotivating and also increase spam posts which do not aid a discussion...
Usha when you posted 50 words you will get 5 points less than 50 words they wont give any points.

This is fifty key strokes and not words. Thus alphabets and free space between words also count. Words may be small or lengthy.

Isn't it better to have different gradations like 1 point and above depending on the length of your post..At times you may not have much to convey ..
That's true, characters and words have vast difference. 50 words may make a big statement where as same no of characters may have nothing to show. Most forums say minimum 60 characters to qualify.
Sorry Gulshan ji I forgot to say that character instead of words. Yes thats better to have this suggestion

I feel they should change it and make it to 50 words may be then it may get rid of spamming as i have seen that just putting 4~5 emotions would fetch you 5 points which really is an insult of good quality post. :blink:
Ya you are right what ever the length of character the priority is the quality of forum.

Sometimes, even a single word or animation can be worth than 1000 words.
Before our posts, we must be sure we are adding something worth for others to read. By this way itself, we can increase its quality a lot.
One sentence is also sufficient if it is able to convey an idea in a better way, also a simple way. isn't it?
Ya you are absolutely right and i say if through animation we give some lesson to other the it is also important.
