I want a contribution system that offers points for complete some things in our forum (badge system could be useful in development but we need points, not badges).
The objetive of that plugin is motivate people to share their knowledge and support our community.
Example:
100 points for posting in X category (KB).
50 points for be the top monthly liked or poster.
25 points for invite an user (applicable when that user goes to LVL2/3).
When do you need it done?
There is no hurry but could be very useful if it’s finished in the next month.
What is your budget, in $ USD that you can offer for this task?
I can pay market price but I really don’t know how much it could cost. I’m open to offers.
replying so i can be notified when this is available! @satonotdead, @Ahmed_Gagan any idea when this plugin will be available? i’m definitely looking for something like this too.
The plugin will be published in plugin when it will be finished and you could contribute with ideas, testing, funding (not only asking but sharing a good feedback)
Well, I can’t update OP but then we can post the plugin finished, so I update that thread here because there are interested people
What’s the plugin do
Grants points to users that fits with some requirements. It was thinked to complement badges, not for replace them.
I think there are a lot of badges and they lose their motivation function, so Point System bring that to us.
If for example our dev @Ahmed_Gagan post in #some-category (moderators needs to aprove every thread in that section), he wins X points.
The same applies if he becomes the most reactioned user in month and some more actioins (Github).
Why that?
We have a good rate of signups but not a good rate of topics/replies unless we do internal contest (if you post good threads, you win).
Our rules are very flexible: no spam, no violence and we are very receptive, so I think that some plus of motivation could push up the interaction in our community by design.
The plugins wants to motivate people to share they experience. I think that every lvl 1 user can contribute on every community in the world.
There is no expertise needed for share experiences, points of views or just ask good questions.
Please don’t harass because there will be open source and there was no ETA neither contribution by your side (no offence, just take that in mind for good reelationship in Discourse community at general)
reactions but not count that one).
