We are really proud of our community. You put your time, sweat, efforts and knowledge at the service of others, throughout the day, every day. And you do it out of the kindness of your hearts.
We’ve been busy in the background working hard on several projects, you’ll see quite a few things happen in the next months. The one thing we thought we needed to do first was say Thank You.
So, welcome to the O2 Community Rewards! From the 1st August 2013, you can get a thank you token for participating in the community. Every month.
Here is how it works: each month, your activity in the forum will earn you rewards points. Points are calculated by using a super secret algorithm that has been devised by monitoring members’ behaviour over the past months. Once you reach a certain amount of points, you will qualify for a reward. We have 4 different levels of rewards – Platinum, Gold, Silver and Bronze. Every month points will reset and you will be able to try to qualify for another reward.
Rewards will vary from month to month – watch out every month for an announcement.
What do you need to do to join the programme? Absolutely nothing. All registered members are automatically entered. The more you participate in the community, the more points you will earn increasing your chances to qualify for a reward.
The Terms & Conditions will give you the full details of the programme, please read them carefully and feel free to ask any questions you might have

Gotcha. We'll announce the August rewards very soon, then you can judge whether they're weak of not
We've been working on this for quite a while to ensure that we could launch a fair, balanced and sustainable programme and now we have a plan that will get better and better not just in the next few months but over time. Feedback is obviously paramount to adjust and improve, please keep it coming.

Hopefully the changes will refresh and revitalise the community. I'm intrigued as to how things will progress under a rewards scheme. To be totally honest, I and many others have gladly given up time to help out on here with no thoughts of being rwarded for it. Appreciation is all we have ever asked.

Absolutely. It's a fine line, though, when it's perceived as a thank you (that is not offensive) or otherwise.

Absolutely. The programme kicks off as of 0:00 1st August 2013. No previous activity counts against the programme, it's not linked to ranks or registration date, every registered member is included*. Please refer to the T&Cs for the details and feel free to ask any question you might have.

The previous comment about backdating 4 years was very tongue-in-cheek Adam:smileywink:
Good to know that everyone has the same opportunity and start on equal footing.
