Another rubbish post.

[Anonymous]

Just thought I would add another

This place has gotten a whole lot worse lately, part's of this board are turning in to a social media forum full of non related rubbish & link's being posted just so users post counts go higher, carry on like this & it will be as bad as the Giff Gaff forum!

I know im a happy ex O2 customer, looking at the state of this forum it would certainly put me of ever rejoining.

I promise you that some are purely motivated by the monetary aspect and notice the pile of inane threads and posts as the days roll on to month end, whether they are included in the said formula or not.

This is an interesting idea @jonsie . I like that it includes rewards, but has a potentially less-competitive edge to it.

Then it becomes a scramble to be considered one of the top 10 and invites more useless posts. It doesn't work for me. This is a forum for people looking for answers to questions about O2 or their phones. It's not a competition in any shape or form. At least it shouldn't be. This forum worked absolutely fine for years before the word 'reward' was introduced. As soon as that happened, the forum changed, and much for the worse, in my opinion.

I am happy to receive any rewards but only if they are deserved. But as I said earlier, I was more than happy to be a member for 4 years with the odd bar of bubbled chocolate thrown in.
The biggest reward on the community is to be appreciated and the loan devices are more than enough of a perk to be a member.

You got chocolate? All I ever got was a letter from Mod14. Oh wait, I never even got that

Everybody has their own views on this forum. @Toby  is doing his best to listen to everybodys point of view and I think that we should respect that and give him a chance to find a solution for everyone.

Who is Charlie, and when did he go missing?

I'm trying to be upbeat gerry.
You said that the stupid labels might not represent the character/usefulness of the member. I said you're gaining a reputation because... (your label)
