I have been visiting a lot of different Halo forums recently (Halo-Pro, Halo 2 Forum, Team 3D, MLG Pro, Halownage) and I have noticed that they give points to users that are active. Obviously this idea would not work well on Bungie due to the large number of immature posters and people that just want to flame.
So instead why not have the mods give out points to people that they see who make a good thread, give an intelligent answer, act courteously, punctuate properly, and whatever else they deem worthy of a point or two. These points would be redeemable for Bungie swag; anything from low point value items like a cool background to high point value items like a hoodie. Also, whenever people recieve a certin amount of points (regardless of whether they spend them or not) they would be given a certain title; Forum Gentleman, Halo Guru, or whatever title Bungie picks.
The titles would help because people who constantly flame would feel inferior to people who have a special title and would have more incentive to act better.
Hopefully this idea would help clean up the forums and make them a little more interesting.
