Should there be a voting for the selection of the best discussion everyday ?

Working here for the last few days i have learnt a new thing which is there should be something interesting. Selecting the best discussions of the day or the top 3 discussions of the day and awarding them with a few bucks will really generate interest in user to post the best quality discussions they can. This is what i think and there could be better options resting in your mind.

At the bottom of the topic on every discussions are 3 boxes where we can rate the discussion itself. The discussion which receives the most positive ratings each day is then placed on the homepage as 'the highest rated discussion' and you can see it there each day. We also have the daily Digest where the most active discussion ion each interest each day is placed. Who would decide which is the 'best discusion of the day'? Would it be the one with the most activity by the original poster? The most responses? The most original topic? Who would decide that it was 'the best'?

There are many ways you can do that I think, but the best way would be to have an actual voting, or that someone on MyLot chooses the winner. Otherwise, there is always a chance that the results can be tampered with by users.

That would be really nice, I think it would make a lot of people happy (the people who posted those topics, that is!), and it would also be a sure way of checking the quality of the discussions. I am all for this idea!

Hello makemoneyhere, Your idea is not bad, some people may agree with this, but I think some people may feel that this right of choosing the best answer should remain personal. The person who has started the discussion will only decide which reply gave him right answer that he wanted. There is a possibility that a discussion chosen as best by voting may actually not match with the personal choice of the owner of the discussion. This is unfair as per my opinion. Just to earn few buck, we cannot take away this right from the person starting the discussion. Have a nice day.
