I read that new post in forum gets 3 points and its reply will get 5 points.But when I posted this thread http://www.boddunan.com/forums/8-feedback/22934-leader-board-information.html my account shows 2 points as credited.Why?

Abid- I also checked my account. The reply gets you five points whereas posting new topic only two points. This appears a disparity. Posting new topic has more value than replying an existing topic.
Please check the latest points table. Points for creating topic is reduced to 2
Yes.
I think Mr. Abid know this thing now.
Thanks for the information Mr. Gulshan and Admin.
Good to see that points for replying in forums are increased.

Still we should get something in exchange of our points which we earn rather than only revenue share?

What do you think friends??

You can use them for advertising on boddunan.
I think it was good if posting a new forums topic will give 3 points as compare to reply on the forums topic.
I think its good change that for reply there is 5 point and for new posting there is 2 points. Its one type of offer by boddunan.
Yes getting 5 points for reply is good one.For posting the old 2 points is remaining.
Reduction of point for initiating a topic is a bit harsh.Those who bring up novel and exciting topics should receive as many points as the ones who reply to these.
Ceeam,
I told it to Moderator in a humorous way.He replied that a discussion becomes lively when reply is posted.So reply should be rewarded highly.
I agree with Ceeam. The initiator or starter should get more points if not more atleast equal.
Hey Abid!

It there is no topic, there won't be any reply and it is like appreciating the fruit overlooking the tree which bears it!!!
The new point system is good in one respect. We often create new threads when already there are similar ones. By giving five points for reply posts, we shall be encouraged to group all items under an existing thread instead of creating new one every time.
Good topic initiators always get Adhoc Cash Prize. We do not need unnecessary clutter on forums instead a more useful and most active topics. High points for topic creation encourage spamming which we do not want.
@Maverick

I do get your point and I find proliferation of useless threads.Can't we have some mechanism to control it.
All we can do is either get away from them this way or delete whenever they created with a proper reason. I find the second one is difficult in terms of finding the reason.
I think the first one is more pragmatic. Ignoring can be a very potent weapon in cases like these!
Yes, I also found one day the home page fully with a single man's new topics.I didn't go through any one since none of them was useful or interesting to me.
Yes, if new topic is given high credits the forums also will flood with spams.
