So I was thinking that when you post a subject here.. you get a certain amount of minus AP. Instead of gaining 1 AP lose 1 to 5 or something. I know how crazy people are about AP so it would reduce the stupid threads. ALSO: if the post becomes popular for good reasons and it's a thought out thread than said user can gain some AP (ex: if a thread is -5 AP they would get +10 ap for a really good thread). But for duplicates and such(excluding newbs) mods would not reward them anything hence they lose AP and causes them to think over dumb and short topics in here.
Huh, it sounds actually alright, when you think about it. Like, you lose 5, but if it's an actual good topic, then you gain more than you lose, am I right?
They lose AP when it's posted but if its a fresh idea that is not a repeat or really stupid they get the AP back plus more. They would make more than 1 AP for good threads which is incentive to make it good and lose AP for really bad repeats or something, another incentive to do your research.

i think this is silly because if this were to happen then people would leave the site
