  • SDN Forum points vs Sun Forum Duke Dollars

    I believe that a points system is a great way to encourage participation by the community in problem solving.
    With the points system in SDN, however, there is room for abuse, for example, by having people you know award points to you on threads.
    I personally like the points reward system (Duke Dollars) on Sun's Developer Forums. In this scheme, you work with credits. Every user is given a certain amount of points (Duke Dollars) when they join. When you post a question, you can assign a number of Duke Dollars up front from your available credit as a reward to entice responses. You can also accumulate more Dollars by answering threads which have Dollars assigned.
    Every month, Sun gives a gift to the user who has accumulated the most points.
    I'm not sure that this solves the problem of users not assigning points for valid help, but, because users are working with limited credit, it does force them to be careful when assigning points, and prevents abuse as that mentioned above.
    I would like to hear what other people think about this scheme. Perhaps there are aspects I have not considered.
    Regards,
    Martin

    Would a moderator make it more positive? 
    Actually Craig went into each of the forums and published a "rules of engagement".  Maybe that kind of a "sticky note" post would be the place to remind people about the inappropriateness of redundant questions (across various forums) and the confusion and poor sporting behavior associated with "copied" answers.  I can ping Craig with that suggestion to add text if you think it makes sense to "remind" people in each of the respective forums.
    Or..to be a little more provocative, we could suggest that community members who have a good track record of participation, collaboration, and exemplary attitude be given the moderator rights in forums where the activity volume might be too overwhelming for an SAP moderator alone to manage and given the rights to move content to a more appropriate thread.
    This is what I meant about "self-policing".  Also, perhaps the moderators (internal as well as SAP) could identify themselves in a sticky post and invite participants in those designated threads to track "abuses" or issues, thus identifying them and hopefully resolving them publically.
    Strange, it reminds me that in old, Puritanical, America, of the 17th century community culprits were subjected to a public dunking or stocks when they broke the law.  The purpose being that public condemnation sent a clear message to other "would be" misbehavers.... and thus deterred further bad conduct.
    While a rather radical and unpleasant method it was an open way of dealing with abuses to the system.
    Perhaps others can offer less extreme and more effective suggestions here

  • Duke Dollars Question

    Hi,
    I have posted couple of questions with DUke Dollars. I did not reward them because nobody answered my question. Now i can i use those dollars in my New Posts.
    thanks.

    You can also un-assign them (get them back) assuming Sun hasn't changed the web site lately, but I don't remember exactly the URL you have to hit. Search the forums for "reward.jsp" and see if you can find another post about doing that.

  • Hey! Give me Duke Dollars

    I badly need duke dollars. Help me please, Help...Help....!

    10 Dukes on a single question? Must be seriously hard. Some people look to see whether there are Dukes available for a question, but a lot don't. My approach is to add Dukes and assign them only when people give good answers - certainly you look silly assigning 10 Dukes and getting the answer "Check your CLASSPATH", and I suspect most people would feel embarrassed getting 10 Dukes for that.

  • How do you add Duke Dollars to a post???

    How do you get the little Duke Dollars thingy to show up next to your post? There are no buttons to do so on the page where I'm ttyping this, nor on the preview page. Nor does it say anything about it in the Duke Dollars FAQ.

    Oh never mind! I saw the option to add Dukes appear after the message was posted.
    IMHO you should be able to add Dukes either on the form or the preview page.
