    Default Monthly Posting Prizes start again in March 2011

    hi all

    just a heads up I will starting up the Monthly Posting Prizes again - starting in March

    10 x $5 posting prizes for the top 10 highest posters in March

    ALL members are eligible post enough to win a prize in any given month - however please dont just post junk to get prizes

    To qualify for a prize you must have a minimum of 20 posts in the month

    You can check the posting totals at any time here -
    Monthly Posting Totals

    We really need more active posting in the forum and to get things busier again - hence me bringing back the prizes

    but its a shame if its just financial incentives that get people posting here rather than posting on other forums - if we're not doing something that other forums are or we are getting something wrong that they're not - let me know

    It would be kind of nice if members who are active in the tournaments each week could also see their way to post a bit more regularly as I'd rather not have to recode the locked password area to be back on the min 10 posts in last 90 days or 60 days to make it a requirement

    It would just be easier if people made a post or two before playing or maybe when they retrieve the password for example, even if its just to discuss the games or something

    cheers scrawnybob

    I think a section for member "blogs" where each active member could start a thread for posting their own wins, experiences, thoughts, etc. might encourage more posting by your "regs".

    You could restrict thread starters and posters to members with more than x number of posts (maybe 100?).

    The reason I suggest restricting it is so members threads don't get all junked up with crap posts from peeps just trying to get their post count up.

    Some of the posts I see on here convince me that there are those who just post to try and get the cash.

    Don't get me wrong ...most of them make sense but some are just posts for the sake of it.

    Default why have posting prizes

    hi

    just to address maybe a few questions people have about the forum and why I've brought back the posting prizes

    in a nut shell most members of the forum are already signed at a load of sites - so the way we make money (via signups through our links and commissions) doesnt really work out for us with most members

    however the more active the forum and the more decent posts in the forum the better google views our site generally ... therefore the higher 4kingpoker ranks for terms generally which attract visitors to the main part of the site which then does generate signups

    its all a bit complicated if you over analyse it but in a nutshell the forum doesnt earn the money but its reasonable investment to put money into the forum games and into posting prizes IF that means the forum is more actively posted in ... the games themsleves dont generate rev and neither does the forum directly as most members / new members dont seem to signup to rooms via us as they are already at xyz rooms and probably came looking for games there etc

    In terms of the downsides of offering cash for posting - yes I guess for some those $5 are really useful and is maybe a much bigger incentive than for others - and that isnt a problem at all - as long as the posts are decent or generate decent new discussions then that is all to the good

    the goal is an active (and stress free) forum

    member blogs / profiles

    this is a real possibility however it would be very much for high posting members only and also with a very big caveat on it that people dont just use it as a shameless attempt to promote their own affiliate / poker sites ... on that front I am slowly removing all homepage links as they get spammed so much and we will be moving to get more extensive / social type profile pages with more features etc ... however I have 5+ 4king brand sites to move and improve as well as some other poker sites to maintain so its alot to get through

    cheers SB
