How do I participate?
There are 4 different ways members can win prizes:
Quality Post WinnersQuality posting is when a member makes particularly high quality or helpful posts on average. In order to be eligible, the administrator must find the member to have produced especially high quality or helpful posts, and a minimum of 125 posts must be made. The top quality posters will be chosen by the administrator. Members of the forum will then vote on a poll within 4-days at the end of the contest to determine the winners.
Top Post Winners
The top posters will be measured by the highest number of posts made during the contest. In order to be eligible, a minimum of 350 posts must be made.
An exact post count of the contest's timeframe will be calculated at the end of the contest by the administrator for accuracy.
Community Spirit Winners
Community spirit winners will be members who are enthusiastic, helpful, and have a strong sense of community activeness within PublisherForums.com. For example, a member who writes a funny poem of PublisherForums.com and posts it up is helping build the community as well as morale. Another example is somebody who decides to make custom PublisherForums Avatars for people. The top community spirit posters will be chosen by the administrator.
Top Referrers
Referrals are simply new members that you refer to the site. Referrals must be legitimate referred members and must genuinely be interested in the site and not incentivized in any way. In addition, your referrals must make a combined total of at least 50 non-spammed posts.
In order to be eligible, you must make a minimum of 50 posts during the contest.
How is this contest different from your past contests?
We learned a few things after holding our past couple of contests, and thus our “Prizes for Posts” contest has been improved to reflect upon this
More Value
First, we’ve added more than 3-times the amount in value worth in prizes than our previous contest, giving away over $3,600. This makes the prizes very desirable.
More Prizes
We’ve also increased the number of winners or prize packages from 10 to 12. This lets us reward more members and make it easier for participants to win a prize.
Easier to Win
Perhaps the biggest thing we learned from our past contests is that a lot of people felt that the minimum requirements in order to be eligible to win a prize were too high. In response to this, we’ve made the following reductions:
Quality Posts – Reduced minimum post requirements from 200 to 125
Top Posts -- Reduced minimum post requirements from 500 to 350
Community Spirit -- Reduced minimum post requirements from 200 to 125
350 Posts is only an average of less than 8 posts per day (Contest runs for 6 weeks) and 125 is less than 3 posts per day, making eligibility for the prizes quite easy.
How am I supposed to compete with existing members who already have hundreds or thousands of posts or referrals?
Only posts or referrals that are made during the contest timeframe will be counted. Please rest assured that the contest administrator can view the exact statistics.
