I know a few people have read my "1 ticket per post" thread. As I was reading the comments and replying I got to thinking, If they can spam comments why get a ticket per post/thread? Why not have Forum points?
The way I was thinking on how it would work is; we have a "Thumbs up" button on the threads/posts/topics and what not. To prevent people from "Glitching" and getting loads of points by clicking the "Thumbs up" button or what ever it is named, that it can only be clicked once per account per IP address for that topic/post/thread. So say that I post ROBLOX's greatest Idea ever. People can click the button and the person who they clicked it for gets a certain amount of forum points say like, 1 like/thumbs up click equals 3 forum points, and the person who clicked it, can never click it again.
Once users have a certain amount of forum points they can trade it for Tickets. Say that, if they added the feature, I get 200 forum points. I can either save the forum points to show off or I can trade 200 forum points for lets say 1 ticket. If Forum points are added I was thinking ROBLOX could make a Forum Catalog. In this catalog users can spend the Forum Points on things like an Image Signature. Also other things like Hyperlinks, Images allowed on posts, and things like that. With the Hyperlinks it could be, you can buy one hyperlink and it can only be used once, making advertising on the Forum easier.
It sounds like it would be complicated, but it might get users to learn what is Right and wrong to post. They might learn if you post about suggestions and they are good ones and they do not complain, that people will thumbs up or what ever them. It would sort of be like the top 50 Posters, 100 Posters and things like that. Like said earlier, users can either save the points to show off, trade for tickets, or buy things in a Forum Catalog. Sort of like the way ROBLOX is right now, when you buy something, you lose the amount of Tickets/Robux that is cost to get the item.
If you are still worried about spamming, the only way that users can get Forum Points is if a unique IP, never clicked the button and clicks it. After they click it they can not click on that same button again from the same computer. Why once per IP? Well users can make a lot of posts then go on alts and like them all. That is why if you can only click once per IP, it eliminates people from gaining points rapidly.
Worried about Flood Check? Well don't worry about it. It can stay the same. Only things that will change is
- A button giving Forum Points - Users can only click the button once per IP - People wanted to get Forum Points and they stop posting non-sense
Please let me know what you think! Good Idea or Bad Idea? Anything I need to do to make this more understandable? Let me know. I can only get better if I make mistakes and errors and I am corrected from it. |

| Or there can be a system that says how much Forum points has spent as well as the amount earned. If it is 0 them you have not bought anything or used the forum points to your benefit. |

| If I tried I could get 200 post in 1 hour. Forum points do not need to be added anyway, people will just be bragging causing the forums to go into flame war. What would you added to the forum catolog? Gear hats? THats were the real catolog come in. |

| You don't get the point. If you read it says Forum Signatures, Hyperlinks, and images to posts. Alright you can get 200 posts in 1 hour? You wont get any points until someone likes it or what not. If they brag, let them. People brag all the time. Once they start bragging, people will stop liking what they post. |

| Why should people earn tickets for foruming? That would be a silly idea... |
