I am going to start deleting some of the posts in which people respond with a complement, but add nothing of their own to the conversation as well as posts that seem overly redundant. The poster will lose the power level gained from such posts. Should I need to constantly delete posts being made by the same person that person will start to lose additional power level points.
You can make my job easier by reporting these kinds of posts by clicking the

I've also decided that this contest will not last until the next beta begins. It will only run for 1 week from the time it began (it ends this Saturday at noon EST) with the winners being announced when the beta begins.
Winners will only be eligible for their prize if they remain active on the forums. There will be 1 less winner from this contest so that I may personally choose 1 member who I feel deserves to play in the beta.
