Agreed, I feel either every poem gets a QP or none do. I just don't feel right in trying to judge that type of self expression, or causing other people to measure one against anothers.
I think the positive feedback is good enough there

Hello, me again...looking to have more people rewarded with QPs...again!
This time, I am turning my attention to Svarog's Karaoke Bar. Not only has this Thread picked up in intensity lately, but the original concept is quite unique and has proven to be lots of fun!
I would like to either see Svarog rewarded for the points that I mentionned above or/and to see some of the participants rewarded for making good recordings of various songs...and not one single Britney Spears tune! EDIT: I see that Svarog got a QP, cool!

I think that Leo's Contest Entry for his Svarog impression, deserves a QP. That was funny ****.

My opinion...
I think that even though the pace has slowed down in the Tavern, and all over HC, the quality of Posts has risen! Maybe this means that we are seeing less SPAM and more "intellectual & emotional expressions". I'll admit that I haven't visited every single Thread in the Tavern lately, but most of the ones which I have been to, have seen many good Posts.
Here are some examples:
*Member Spotlight!
**MYT (05)* Contest Entries (They seem to be improving with every Round.)
****Fake RL photos of HC members!@***
*Karaoke bar
I might seem biased with my examples, but I'm just pointing out what I know. Maybe if a few more QPs were given out in the "right places", participation in these interesting Threads would increase.

Ok...seriously...c'mon...let's go...smarten up!
I am here again to ask...no, make that PLEAD...that some people be given QPs for their entries in the MYT GAME. I know that not everyone is Copying & Pasting their entries into the *MYT (05)* Contest Entries Thread, but some people have, yet there hasn't been a single QP awarded so far!
I have mentioned (on a few occasions) that people should try and get their entries Posted, in order to get rewarded with a QP, but if none are being given whatsoever, then how am I supposed to motivate these participants?! I need some help here Mods...
Or maybe some other system can be developed to reward people in the MYT GAME because there is some really good stuff in there! I've seen references to the rising quality of entries & the need for QPs here (by RSF & TAK), here (by Sir_Stiven), and here (by Pandora)...just to name a few.
I am really hoping to see some people get rewarded for the hard work & creativity that is going into their MYT GAME entries...besides getting "ownership" of a Thread.

Leo_Lion,
If you want to reward creative participants of your "MarkYourTerritory" thread then I suggest you become a Moderator. That's what RedSoxFan3 did with "Let's Have War". I think he did a great job. That thread truly became quite an interesting read in my opinion; much more so than before he was Moderator. Members became highly motivated and obviously enjoyed the time they spent in the thread. Overall, I think it improved the quality of posting in the Bard's Glade Pyre forum. This was clearly a job-well-done on his part and he deserved every Qp that Valeriy rewarded him when he decided to retire his Moderator sword.
I would easily vote for you to be a Moderator Leo_Lion. I've seen your posting habits, dedication to improving the atmosphere of Heroes Community, and noticed your friendly approach to almost all the subjects you've posted in; including the subjects you didn't agree with. I think you would make a great Moderator Leo_Lion. I think we would be doing the Tavern/Volcanic Wastelands a great service by electing someone like you; who cares so much about what's going on. Your potential contribution as Moderator is obvious to me. I'm sure others would agree with me.

You can thank Asmodean, Conan.
I thought getting QPs from him was like trying to get blood from a stone, but as always, he has proven me wrong. Thank you for the recognition, Asmodean...I appreciate it!
The squeeky wheel gets the grease, eh?!
Or maybe it was because of Consis' suggestion that I become a Mod. Asmodean might not have wanted another 'male' Mod in the same Forums as himself, so he decided to mark his territory!
Oh God! I was able to edit this Post right away, without having to wait 90 bloody seconds! Yay!

I think Consis is on the right target here. However I think that it would be a bit early for Leo to become a moderator. It's only been 5 months. However if things continue the same way they are going, I would certainly see no reason why Leo couldn't be a moderator in the future.

That is a feature that all three stars members are supposed to have.
The 4rth star gives you the right to post without floodprotect

With regards to QP in MYT - I agree that red stars are a great way to encourage activity, in fact I originally was the one to bring up the topic of how moderators might be able to award entries when QP worthy ones arise.
The snag that we hit was in the thinking that rewarding one and not all might lead to bad feelings by those not being rewarded. It happens sometimes that when a thread becomes one that members see getting a lot of QP, the thread gets overrun by people posting there with an expectation that they will get one too. This isn't an issue if the posts are fantastic, but when they are not it can lead to trouble.
It also leads to members Im'ing us asking for QP's for their posts. This is generally a pretty akward thing to have happen a lot of the time.
I'm not saying no to QP in the thread, I see Asmodean has already given a few As for myself, I guess you'll have to just take those entries up a notch and I'll have no choice but send a few stars out that way too!
Keep up the great work everyone, and thanks to all of you for your input!
edit: gave a QP to Leo for a post in the tell teh false truth thread, page two!

Thanks for the supportive feedback RSF! You & Consis are flattering me with the Mod-talk...
Also, thank you to Pandora for the QP! As I told her in an IM, I haven't written something like that in a really long time and it felt really good to get the creative juices flowing again...more than ususal, I mean. It also felt good to be recognized for that effort.
As it has been my argument all along, QPs make me feel appreciated...I cannot deny it and I think that others feel the same way. But more important than that, is my colleagues' feedback & support. Lately, I have been getting lots of that good stuff and I only hope that I have also been giving as much too.
There are lots of good people here on HC, and it's always nice to compete, discuss, and appreciate each other...as I have been lucky enough to witness first hand. And now that I don't have floodprotect or "editprotect" or whatever you want to call it...you can expect alot more from me!

This sounds a lot like something Peacemaker would say. Maybe it's really Peacemaker in a lion suit! Ha, I knew it!

I've seen that bikini picture of Peacemaker, so I'll consider myself flattered even more, Consis!
I don't mind people seeing me in my lion suit, but that bikini pick almost showed us Pacemaker in her "birtday suit".

A lot of these people certainly have a lot of red stars. They must contribute massively to the community. I'll go back to skulking around the library

Umm... I realize that most people don't look in Glade that often, but I just wanted to remind people to check it out, cause it's gonna be active again soon and we are looking for some new faces. So please come by and check things out. Not being good enough or fear that you have to perform isn't an excuse to back out. I'm tired of hearing that from people, because it's not that kind of atmosphere. So come check it out.
Sorry for being off topic, but I just thought this was a good place to post something like this since so many people read this thread.
