Introducing the Woot! Forums Leaderboard!!

Welcome to the new Woot! Forums Leaderboard. You can now earn useless points (called “Woots”) when you visit and participate in the forums.

Who can participate?
EVERYONE! You’re automatically taking part in it just by reading this post. You scored a point! Like this post and you’ll get another point. Oh, Woot! staff are excluded.

Did you say Points?
Yes, points! Or “Woots” as we’re calling them. You’ll earn a Woot by doing any of the following:

• Daily visits to the forums (make sure you’re logged in)
• Likes given (only hearts count)
• Likes received (only hearts count)
• Posts read
• Time read

And because we know some of y’all would go crazy posting random stuff, we did not include creating posts or topics/threads. Note that for “Likes”, you must give/receive the :heart:. The other reactions do not reward Woots.

What are these Woots worth??
Absolutely nothing! They have no monetary or prize value. You can print and frame the leaderboard if you like though.

Where do I start?
Right here! The only category excluded from earning Woots is Everything But Woot. This is because there’s a strong community there that read, visit, and like a LOT. We want to give everyone a fair fighting chance so EBW does not count towards earning Woots.

Where do I see how many Woots I’ve earned?
You can look on your user card by clicking/tapping on your username on one of your posts in the forums:

Or right here!

Just paid staff. Volunteer moderators are customers/community members just like you. They just choose to be here a lot.

PS: They were here a lot before becoming VMs which is why they were asked to become one. :smiley:

To be fair, post mongering is in shenanigans. You posted for the greater good. Go Dave!

If you would monger, you’d know that trying to hit that ever moving reply button means you most likely hit the like button a million times instead.
