Currently, SA of something awful LLC is making very few efforts to maximize revenue. As a partial non-owner, I'm very concerned if an activist hedge fund becomes aware of the moribund nature of the forums and the lack of cross-promotional synergizing that's occurring, they may try to take over the Board of Directors, and depose the current management, installing some corporate thugs who will ruin the forums by combining C-Spam and D&D, as well as other, darker, changes meant to drive "engagement". This is a thread where we can brainstorm ways that the current management can leverage their core competencies and increase fiscal profits, reinvesting into the profits cycle. My ideas: Pay per post. Mega Posting - pay a fee to string multiple posts together Vote magnification powers - pay to increase your voting power on the threads all important 1-5 purely objective rating scale. Please like, subscribe, and rate 5.

Foster more inter-goon strife to drive up purchases of red text AVs. Intergoon strife will also synergize with increased frequency of bans and reregs.

SA needs "cravability." We need to create an experience profile that maximizes endorphin feedback and keeps users coming back to maximize engagements and monetization.

Introducing SA's new currency, Posting Gems! Each post costs one Gem; each user is allotted five Gems daily, and they regenerate automatically once every two hours. But if you just have to post right now, buy a set of Posting Gems now for just $5.99! Don't forget the daily log-in bonus! Now if we could just work loot boxes into this somehow...

I’m seeing a lot of commodification but not a lot of gamification. What if we had SA bucks we could use to purchase some of those items, and we could buy them but also earn them through posting. 1 SA buck earned per empty quote of your post. 25 SA bucks earned if someone is probed when they reply to your post. Etc..

Everyonbe should have a character sheet with equiped items list in the sig area and you can pay to upgrade stats and equipment. It does nothing but you and others can look at it.

Because if you're going to gamify, you want to just go ahead and cut straight to the chase - slot machines. Remember, the money isn't in running a casino, it's in running a rigged casino.

How about the ability to sponsor and donate to a poster, to support their posting career. SA gets a cut as the facilitator and platform. We can call it Postreon.

We should make an SA NFT it's non-fungible, but also non-refundable and irredeemable

This sounds very engaging.

Posts have hitpoints based on a variety of factors and other posters can "attack" or "heal" a post and if it loses HP it changes to an Ignored User style post for everyone.

The end goal of capitalism is corporations taking the form of giant robots that fly around the universe consuming whole planets and even stars, and the more they consume, the higher their stock price goes.
