    Best thread!

    Hey Big_K,

    I was just thinking,why not add a sticky in each forum,which contains the best threads of that particular forum,this will help others to find best threads and also inspire CEans to create best threads to have their it enlisted in the sticky.



    Whats your say?

    Good Idea but for that we need some good quality threads too. and we have to finalize the criteria to make thread Sticky.

    I first thought this thread is about rewarding the best thread starters every week. There would be too many stickies soon if we stick the best threads. Instead, why not have ONE sticky thread in which we keep on posting the links to the best threads in that section?

    Thats good idea too. For Example i have seen so many Sticky Threads in Project Idea Section. and I have created one Thread which consists link of all threads which have good Project Ideas.

    Here is the thread:- #-Link-Snipped-#

    Admins/Mods and senior members can help in deciding it. How about starting a weekly "Best Thread" award? I guess we can award the best thread starter every week with a gift item like any book/gadget of their choice?

    Yep Biggie,that was what I mean,one sticky in each section because there are many threads which go to the next page and are sometimes go unnoticed,CEans can look for best threads in that particular sticky(of that particular section),this will also motivate CEans to create a good thread so that it can be listed in that sticky.

    That would be the best idea,admin/mods will decide and it will also involve active participation and good thread contribution.

    The idea is good Biggie. We can give prizes or we can have their names displayed on front page, this will boost other people to initialize good discussions.

    Nope - just one thread will be elected as the 'best' thread and the thread creator will be rewarded.

    Nice idea. though few suggestions from me:
    1. There should be few bench marking for electing the best thread. We have had this contest in past, and had questions for the judgement.
    2. The thread material shouldn't be stolen from copyright material
    3. Thread owner please be prepare for all the questions
    4. @ All Members - No appreciations in the threads (let that be purely technical. I remember Durga started a thread long back for appreciations. So If you like the thread go post in appreciation thread.)

    Suggestions:
    We badly miss our oldies who were very active in Java / Linux section? Any body who can volunteer for that now?
    @ES - what about you taking the VBS and testing zone?
    Any mechanical / electrical engineering captain?

    Its we who make any thread good, its we only who ruin the threads.

    Good points CB. @Crazyboy, captain? Do you mean 'volunteer'?

    A few more from my side.
    1. The threads of people who are going to evaluate other's should not be rewarded.
    E.g.; A volunteer's thread should not be evaluated for sake of integrity.

    2. A volunteer should set up bench mark for creating good threads for others.

    3. It may happen that a good thread starter may not get response (although his thread may be technically sound), while a poorly started thread gets good response from others (People may post good informative posts in his thread) What would we do in that case? Please decide.

    4. Precisely decide which section's threads will be evaluated. 'Technical' does it include 'post graduate entrance exam' and similar sections?

    Agreed. We'll post detailed guidelines as soon as we're done with the plan. We need to allocate budget and a proper system so that his activity can be sustained for a longer period of time.

    The best one would be like a Long Thread Index for each forum. What do you say Biggie?
