Should there be contest and prize/award giving held here?

I have seen lots of foreign/desi forums conducting contest , and giving now and then awards to many users for thier participation in the forum and contest

Why cant we here at thinkdigit conduct contest from time to time makng this forum a good place for healthy "talent show off" place??

Cant we conduct contest like

"Most Active Member"
"Most Active Thread"
"Intersting Thread opener"
"Most helping member of the year"
"Best designer in this forum"
"Best Modder of PC"
"Most talented Person"
etc
etc

things like that ..
and give away special awards to them..
wont it be very good for users also.. to be a proud winners of these awards??
and i think the reputaion system should again be put into place and also other small modification in theforum to place award pictures near thier profile picture..

these will make this forum better...

wht is ur opinion guys ..??

the price need not be in cash or someting likethat..instead it can some thing like a badge to the profile denoting thier prize/award...

Well our opinion doesn't matter here, ask the site Admins. we don't have democracy
if they agree then you can have it.

So i am not posting my opnion

i just want it not for my sake.. really there are many good members here helping many poor souls..

like Infra_red_dude , mehulved,Choto Cheeta,...and many many more..

i think once in a while they should be appreciated here throught out the forum for thier work ..

why dont we have democracy here ..

is it so moderators??/
cant we have our own interstinf stuffs here if we like , if many like ???

not bad if we have them on yearly basis ... like the thinkdigit oscars

and yeah 1 more category best salesman

^^ thats wht i am taking about ..
i think voting can be done .. and winner selected..

or is that mods are too busy nowadays??/

^^lol......The salesmen category looks pretty competitive.

T

Won't be a bad idea to start such contests every six-months/year

yeah ......i think there shuld be such things every year bt indirectly it's the rep system

^^ yes i think rep system or similar system should be in place...

forum is really tooo bland...

THe rep system was removed bcoz there was classification of the members..so i dn't think the admins swill be willing to put the awrd system

^^^ classification of members???

like first member has higher rep and the other has lower rep so the lower rep member wuld be ignored.

lower members ignored?? for wht ??
i dont get u ...
do u mean to say like in contest ???

neway lets see wht the admins hav to say on dis

will they reply here????

lol

wht are the mods and admins doing

yeah .. iwas just wondering ..

i think they should either announce anything or close this thread stating some reasonble reason..

wht do u think guys ???

It's only the admins who can have a say in this not the mods.
As for my opinion, this will just create more chaos. As it is we already have so much infighting. It only makes sense if there can be any order maintained by some group of people.
Also, what kind of prize/award to be given? No one has put any light on that area. If some extra custom tag can be given to people in these categories that will be something good too. Like we had trusted members earlier.

sounds interesting.......!!!!
But I know this is not going to happen here.I rarely see admin post or visit here.However most of time I am online here.

And one thing more..you wont see any admin post in this thread.....reason is:
They dont want any change.

^^newton's first law working here.lol.

i dont think why it would create chaos.. we can select the winners thru votes...

or special awards by mods and admin,..

regarding the AWARD or PRIZE.. wouldnt be great if they would post these winner in the anniversary edition of digit every year..
that would be a real prize giving for the winners..

i think MODS / ADMIN should look at this forum and take some innovative step ..and also encourage users here...

it really sounds great, but when it comes to reality it is not that fruity, as mehul said it will only create trauma and chaos, so it would be better to drop such ideas, and well Admins are to decide on this and not us .

Yes its all admins decision at last.
If we would think that it will create havoc,i dont think we should even conduct peso awards! Lol
But atlast isnt it concerning the winners and members?
It should really be upto to the users to take it.i dont think anyone here is to fight...are we guys?
Even we are ready to encourage members to excel.
Eg is VG

Arey yaar kya karoge awards leke aur contest jeetke.Apne biodata mein likhoge ke Digit pe award jeeta tha.

Milna kya hai in sab se kaddu.
