Just Scrap It!!!

Friends,
Off late we’ve been facing the trouble of unprofessional posts, non-value adding replies and a rat-race to get maximum points and thanks etc. All this just to get T-Shirts and I-Pods...
Agree? Read ahead...Disagree? Surely read ahead....

So what needs to be done...how do we stop people from getting involved in this vicious system of incentives??
Simple, Scrap the system...No points, No gifts...then we shall surely see a marked improvement in the quality of the posts. Obviously there shall be a fall in the number of posts we see everyday. But I suppose nobody will mind that as we all want to see quality and not quantity.

Why nobody should have a problem with it?
As knowledge sharing is not done just for points...so someone who opposes the scrapping will surely be the one who shares posts with a materialistic purpose...

Why it must have started?
I assume it was done as an incentive to get more members in at the start but now this is one big family and its quite popular too so I guess the need for incentives no longer exists..
It can be compared to the Constitution of India. When Dr. Ambedkar proposed Quotas for the backward classes. He meant to do it for a period of say one or two decades but then politicians now use it as their vote bank..

So if you agree with scrapping of points being implemented then please leave a comment on this post..so that we can take this to the Admin then..
Also I request the Admin not to close this post down..

This is my voice as well..... !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Fully Agreed...............

No need of point system & Thanks giving...............

Agreed with All

 

Admin must take a step regarding these........

I dont think point system should be removed but should be restricted.
Whatever you see is a mixture of good & bad... Just take the good & leave the bad... I mean to say there is no need to kill the bad... When such useless topics are posted, it would just be sufficient not to comment & thank such posts!!!

Hai Gaurav kapoor i am happy that u r strongly oppsoing unneccesary posts in the preofessional platform..then what about this article of urs..is it necessary to post here../forum/ca-passion-144387.asp can u give an explanation regarding this..???

Well said....And people who are crazy about IPODS will leave this platform and this site will be spam free....Hope you got it.....

I am not just going to agree over here to sound good. Realisticly in my view Point system should be their...But points should be awarded on merit. A new person joins he/she has 20 points. A person who has replied 8000 queries has same no of points. Does not sound good. Point system is there to show the Top contributors of the club., No of queries replied to show the Top experts of the club. But as it is points /No of Replies always does not reflect the true contribution. This is because an expert who writes the whole reply gets 3 points and if someone comes and replies as agreed with expert (Which i also did by watching some fellow experts at the begining) also gets 3 points. A member who posts jokes in forum gets 4 points and a person who shares very useful notes also gets 4 points. Is it fair? No its not. Points should be awarded on merit. Points shold be given for quality and not quantity. As regards thanks aspects its also in our hands. We should give thanks to very deserving posts only. But in practice what we do, we give thanks even to comments. Say if somebody appreciate your post you give thanks. Dhaval you do this to and sometimes me too. That is the prime reason the value of thanks has diminished. Traet this as your vote of confidence and use it very carefully. If a top member posts something it does not mean thanks has to be given. But what we do? A new member posts a good topic, we rarely comment and if a top member say me post anything which is lesser compared to the post of that new member, you all keep prasing and flood the post with good comments. This system need to be corrected. Who can correct this? You all...Aap sudhro yea faltu post karne wale sabhi sudhrenge.....

Not meant to heart anybody. Not a speech just wrote what i felt. And plaese dont thank this as if it is one hell of a speech. Just realise within yourself what i have said.

@ CMA Sanjay :

No offence....but there have been instances where a member was begging for a 2.5 k worth Ipod...People like me , Dhaval and many others read it.....are these kinda people here for ipods or to help students....this sort of an attitude will bring disrepute to this elite platform....As long as the IPOD prize system exists , we might get to see more and more begging in the months to come...i personally feel point system should be scrapped and no more ipods , mugs , t shirts....

Thanx

I saw that too, Anil....Gifts should be scrapped....But as far as points system i think some modifications are required not scrapping it. But no problems we all have our views...

Even I agree with Dhaval... 

For the sake of score & thanks anything is copy pasted....

Quality has to be maintaned.
