NP For Activity

[Humdizzy]

I just was bored and thought maybe we should get like .10 np per 5 minutes we are on NamePros as a reward for being active? Just something I thought up. What do you think?

Not such a great idea, since people would just leave their computer on all day to collect the NP$

Maybe .25NP$/hour or something. That might be more reasonable. But I think that there is more than enough ways to get NP$

Actualy it would be a good idea. Because it cuts you off if your not active in the forum (in idle) so my guess is 10-20 min cut-off so really if you left your computer on you would make only 10-20 min of the NP$, unless someone made a script to keep on clicking home or refreshing the page.

Honestly, we need more ways to earn NP$?

Personally, I think we have enough ways to earn NP$ here, remember this is a business forum, NP$ is just an added advantage that people love (well, who wouldn't love free money?)

Anything that would give out free NP$ to everyone wouldn't be smart. It would dramatically decrease the value of the NP$, and people would register multiple accounts and use a program like Tasker to refresh the page every 10 minutes on each computer to earn money, then send all the NP$ from each account to one master account.

The best reward for activity would be for posts over x amount of words. If NP were to put on a system that awards, say, 0.25 NP$ per post, there would be a massive amount of spam. If each post was over x amount of words, it would bring more valuable content to the site and better input from people. Right now I'm making 1 NP per post an 2 NP per appraisal (all in non-marketplace forums) and I'm a relatively new member. If NP$ was given out more easily it would become less valuable and waste anyone who ever bought NP$ for real money's money (if that makes sense). On days when the forum is weaker and generally has less posts, give 0.5 NP$ per post to all users...

People will just idle this site 24/7 to get NP$. I dont think its a good idea. Maybe by however many posts you have, your NP$ per post/thread increases!

Lol you would like that eh with 6666 posts :P

I agree with Tom...You shouldn't be posting for the NP $, nor should you get them just for being active. Remember it is a domaining forum, and NP $ are just an extra bonus...

Also if your active, you post, nonposters are called lurkers, not really active

 

[deleted984054565403]

I'm not saying I support NP$ for activity, but what if there was a cap on how much you could get per day/week? For example, if you're an active lurker (oxymoron?) you could make up to 5 NP$ per week.

But this whole thing wouldn't reward people who are actively bringing new content to the site. It's not a necessity. There are plenty of ways to earn NP$ in the NP Incentives forum.

Geeeez Another "I want more - Gimme Gimme" Thread .... In case you haven't noticed , These aren't very popular lately. -RJ- does plenty for the members here Folks - Lets get off this little kick of suggesting things to take more away from him.

You are basically asking for him to pay you to set here doing nothing ? ....

 

[Stephen]

I agree. There are plenty of ways to earn NP$.

NP$ Incentives, Posting, earn credits for clicks....

There's no need for him to just give NP$ for you to be active on the forum, imho.

You can get NP$ for being just being active on the forum, by contributing to the forum by posting.

i agree, and concur, with most of the posts above. NP are extra, not important. They are meant to be fun and cool, and at the same time useful, but not the main reason you are at namepros. So, I don't think this is a good idea.
