Everyone knows about the top posters monthly award. It's our way to try and give something back to those who help the forum tick over etc.
I am also aware that the people who post a lot may not always post the best quality blah blah. The site is very seasonal due to the fair weathers etc (I am one)
I am now looking at ways to help those who generate good content. Its been hard trying to work it out, so do I award people who post a lot, award an OP of a thread for having the most replies? Headache as one disagreement in a thread can go on for ages but that isn't valuable.
I think I've found a way... We all know the site has a 'like button' which I've basically nicked from FB, I've now implemented emotions (nicked that as well) - At the top of the homepage and 'what's new', you will see 'most reactions' with the hope that the odd person who may not post a lot but has posted a good post with lots of 'emotion' will get recognised, at least people being nosey and viewing their profiles etc.
It will look like this
