So you make replies in hopes of someone discovering it and then glorifying it? Or you get a friend to publicise it for you?
You find helpful replies and post them and can win points + the person who unknowingly made the reply can win points.

Support contests usually encourage support and not just reward those that already do it and spend a lot of time and effort on it (eg, Define Your Line). I just don't see how it would encourage support at all, just get people to post good replies. In essence it rewards the reply owner and the person that discovered it, but people who make those replies are generally already dedicated enough, and this doesn't seem to drive support.  

 That said I like the idea.


Couldnt it also be said that the other contest, which gets you to post a helpful reply of your own, is just as bad, because many of them merely post a helpful reply in order to get points. donations for it, then cease to make helpful replies as soon as the contest is over?


Yes my point exactly. Instead of people getting to presume there reply is helpful someone else nominates it and both people get rewards.

Why hello there Iivewire. I would like ton make a humble submission.
Clicky.

A troubled member named DayXTripper had a very serious problem solving his issues writing an essay on what he believed to be a very limited prompt. Here is hiis cry for help.:

TOPIC TITLE:

WHERE THE FUCK DO I GO FROM HERE?


"You are what you eat." Granted this saying is old and cliché, but the reality is that food can serve as an identity for people.

Topic sentence...I'm stuck, I hate this essay



Topic sentence...I'm stuck, I hate this essay


My benevolent response.


I only concerned myself with following formula in timed essays, and even then, I was very liberal with it.

This essay is an assignment, meaning you have all night or longer to finish it.

Don't worry about the topic sentence, you can change it later a your leisure.

Write this essay on the way we change our eating habits based on how much sex we're getting and based on whether or not we're having sex with multiple partners, on whether or not your partner/s is/are sexually open to oral and anal, and whether or not you're having kinky sex.

That may be too much so just go with frequency of sex, whether or not that sex is with one or multiple partners, and whether or not you feel you have a future with one of the sexual partners. That's good meat for a full essay.

This will be the most creative essay out of everyone else using that same prompt (or likely any other prompt) and will guarantee you bonus points with your teacher. I don't recommend getting illicit but I personally would.

If your classmates find out you did this  they'll think more highly of you giving you an avenue of approach toward solving whatever social issues you may have as well.

Write this essay without worrying about structure, after you write the essay, print it out and cut each paragraph into it's own slice of paper and reorganize it, then re-write it with the essay you just re ordered in front of you, making sure to accommodate formatting requirements.

Print three copies and save it to your computer.

You will get an A on this essay. When you leave class, tape it on your teacher's door.

Some curious person will read the beginning, realize what it is, and see that you got an A, and then soon a shitload of people will know.

You will have not only impressed your teacher and your peers, you will talked about among all your teachers. This is always a good thing.

Remember, address the subject completely seriously, if you aren't actually sexually active, lie but be logical about it.

1. Write essay on the subject medjai gave you.
2. Follow instructions.
3. ??????????????????????????????????
4. Profit.


From the title we can see that this member was lost and confused, I was on my radical streetbike and saved the day though.

I must say, Medjai's advice was certainly the lubrication that my brain was needing. His radical and very original approach to the subject was exactly what I needed to start writing about something I can feel passionately about. Honestly, there is so much correlation to sex and food, it's ridiculous. For example, pineapple serving as a cum taste enhancer, or as food being a fetish.

He was also very supportive in any apprehensions that I had with writing about such an outrageous topic. "If your classmates find out you did this  they'll think more highly of you giving you an avenue of approach toward solving whatever social issues you may have as well." I'm my opinion, this is the epitome of supportiveness.

So then I can count this as an entry? Obviously it would be pretentious and obnoxious for someone to blatantly disregard the rules and enter themselves in this contest however this amazingly helpful reply was fortunately saved and entered by you, right daytripper?
