YT rewards idea! - YorkieTalk.com Forums

HeatherHamptons · 05-12-2005, 05:52 AM

Im a memeber of a few different forums (this is the only yorkie forum im on though). Most of the forums I post on have rewards. Your post count can be cashed in for prizes.

Here's how it works:

The good people on YT donate items such as "free t-shirt for your yorkie after 150 posts" etc.

It can be anything you choose to donate but keep in mind there are a lot of people so you dont wanna go crazy promising gifts.

Another way to reward the YT members is to give a prize to the person who has the longest thread of the week.

Just a suggestion..

I would be willing to donate my services as well. Though I dont have clothing or anything like that, I can make custom graphics of your yorkie. Like desktop wallpaper, banners, animated avatars, etc.

What does everyone think? We can finalize details later. Input is the main objective right now

That's a great idea! However, it can be a bit hard to find people to donate items for it. We've had some great donations for our 50,000 Post Giveaway we had a month or so ago, but it seems like for a reward system, we'd need a LOT of stuff to give away!

Maybe a monthly contest instead then?

Maybe its me but that would seem like a huge administrative thing to do. I used to get on YT a few times a day and check in, well now at my new office I don't have the time I once did. At night when I do get in there are pages of new posts and it is quite a task to catch up. God help me if I miss a day or 2....point is this place has really grown which is FABULOUS!, but something like that may be hard unless you make the hurdles really high like a prize when you hit 500 or 750 or 100 posts....just my thoughts and everyone here is really helpful when needed, as a new yorkie owner this place answered a lot of my questions.....Jim
