Is it by reporting fraud, cheating, plagiarism or do I have to make a good post so I can be called "your contribution is great on the forum". I read a lot of posts suggesting contributing to the forum and making good posts.
I suppose all that counts to what makes you recognised on the forum. It doesn't mean doing it once and your off but, you've got to be active and consistent with your forum activities. There are so many users on the forum and one way to stay ahead is by ensuring your being active in most of the boards.
Of course the forum is wholesome but, not as wholesome as you see it. Given that sme boards are looked at with much neglect by the elites of the forum and puts such boards on ignore. You frequent there, your likely not going to get noticed.
But, getting noticed shouldn't be much of an issue. It's better you just keep trying to improve you and in your doing so, you contribute to the discussions going on across boards. That way, you gain and as well sell your name by the Knowledge you put across. Trying to force yourself to do things just to get noticed is one way to ask for trouble.
