Please provide feedback on the system. Here are some discussion points to consider, but don't feel limited to these:
- Do you like the current Mile High Salute system?
- I like the idea of the Mile High Salute, but I don't like the way it's set up.
- Do you like the fact no points or status is tracked in conjunction with the system?
No. I think there is some concern over the crap we dealt with over at the "other" boards, but we aren't that board. I would like to see some sort of points or status assigned to the system.
- Do you like the anonymous nature of the system, vs. allowing others to see who you have given a Mile High Salute to?
In the spirit of our new members from the Freak, I really liked their system, and I would like to see something like that here.
- Do you like the 'limit and spread', the limit of only giving 10 salutes a day and spreading to five other people before giving a Mile High Salute to the same person again?
With there being no value to the recognition in our current system, I think the limit and spread is unecessary. If we were to change to a point system, then a limit and spread would be the right way to go.
- Any other feedback about the system or changes you would like to have considered.
I think we kinda threw the baby out with the bath water when we developed our system. The CP debates from the other place left a sour taste in many mouths. But, I think we are better than that here, and that we can "survive" a point system.
