We have already a lot of leaderboards and also category experts for all categories. I am afraid that what you present would end in a popularity contest and I am not a big fan of popularity contests. It looks like we already have enough of them.

No, I would not welcome it. The feeling that I am well accepted in a community like this is enough for me. There are already too much competitions in this world!!

No - you would see the same few names winning all the prizes due to them having been asround longest and being most prominent. Maybe a "star" award for a question and/or answer that we each award once a month when we see something really special - in addition to our points but certainly not an al out competition!

No. I am against titles, awards, levels, points, honors. All they do is serve to exclude. I like inclusive things. We have had this discussion before Suby. I am anti- all of that stuff. I feel it is counterproductive and negative and only fosters competition. This is a social site. We're not at work here. We are here to talk and get acquainted and learn and share what we know. We're not here to get badges and vie for awards. I am adamantly opposed to it.
