The Constructive Ideas Thread

[Trollheart]

I'm really not bothered about the MOTW/M idea; if it's adopted fine if not then also fine. I do feel that there's a measure of negative reaction against it, but would refute DJ and BD's contention that it's a reward for good behaviour alone. It's not. It's meant to foster good behaviour and show people that they can be recognised at the end. Sort of like when you get good grades and your parents buy you a car or whatever. If you know that's on the horizon do you work harder and more diligently than otherwise?

I understand that people should not need inducements to behave properly, but the reality is some people will not do so on their own. Of course, these people may not do so even with a system like this in place. It was more an idea that those who take the time or put in the effort to make the place a better environment would get some recognition, in some small way. And a ham. But if everyone thinks it would lead to a stupid competitive atmos, then by all means don't implement it.

On Lisnaholic's point on tore's weekly themes, I have to say, I don't get it. I looked and all I saw was some posts leading to Wiki articles. Can someone please explain this to me, as as it stands I simply don't see what's being done.
