Crack Hit hunter abuse of system: Feedback requested

The issue has been raised that there are those in this forum who are abusing the way crack hits work (ie automatically giving 5 for each post). We'd like some feedback on it to see if it is serious enough to be addressed.

Pulsar's suggestion is that we penalize folks who are replying to a thread only to get crack hits (eg subtract 100 crack hits from their total). I agree this would be effective, but who would judge when someone is replying to a thread for crack hits only? Would a one warning system suffice? 

There's also the problem of noticing/reporting/policing. I don't want it to turn into a "I'm going to tell <name> on you!" or an us vs them attitude. At the same time, most of the moderators spend comparatively little time in the forums compared to the hard core junkies. If you didn't believe I thought too much about things before, I bet you do now, huh?

Would it kill the relaxed and fun nature of the community? I've been reminded recently that many come here to simply let their proverbial hair down and chill out, maybe imbide a virtual beverage or three. I'm guessing these folks aren't going to want to worry about rules and regulations. So, please, give us your feedback.

 I believe you are mistaken sir. 99% sure only Scott and Pulsar have the authority to delete posts/threads, but I could be wrong.

Thank you, George Hrab, for composing and performing the acoustic version of brainsbodyboth. Humorous yet poignant, and you gave me a theme song. I miss Ally <sigh>

 He needs something to make him look larger to help out his ego. I'm sure you've noticed his problem with diminished self esteem.

 Do you know if everyone loses the CHs from their comments too? That would be nasty. Imagine someone deleting the CH thread or one of the countdown threads.....

Re: Crack Hit hunter abuse of system: Feedback requested
kidding on the subject. but here is my idea,i dont know how hard it would be to implement, but maybe something where you get more crack hits per word/line that way people who are posting long... umm... posts, are rewarded for the thought put into them and crack hunters get hardly any. this would probably take longer to code for but noone would have to police just for the crack hunters.

I realized today I have some of these after several post I have made and I don't know what they mean. I guess I will try to score us some crack by the 26th though Scott. Bring your pipe.

Re: Crack Hit hunter abuse of system: Feedback requested

could we base it on a vote system, ie number crack hits you get are based on voting 1-5 hits the same as yahoo answers etc...

"Who is Number One?", "You, are Number Six!", "I am not a number, I am a free man!"

"No matter what it takes, we will find them, and I will find the sentients responsible for this, I assure you of that."

Re: Crack Hit hunter abuse of system: Feedback requested

 We have posted before cashing in crack hits for goodies....

"Who is Number One?", "You, are Number Six!", "I am not a number, I am a free man!"

"No matter what it takes, we will find them, and I will find the sentients responsible for this, I assure you of that."

Re: Crack Hit hunter abuse of system: Feedback requested

Problem with this is we can just pad out the answer and go on and on and on and on and on and on.......etc

"Who is Number One?", "You, are Number Six!", "I am not a number, I am a free man!"

"No matter what it takes, we will find them, and I will find the sentients responsible for this, I assure you of that."
