How about 5 bonus points for not missing any days logging in in a month? Wouldn't that be a good incentive? And 25 for not missing any days in a year!

I think that the idea of getting points for every day so many days like 30, 60, 90 and so on.....

I think we need to get a point each time we log in the SparkPeople.Com, I am on it allthe time. I love it!

I would like to see points for commenting on others' blogs or their sparkpages.

As far as getting something tangible, it seems to me since this is a free encouragement tool, then management might have to charge a fee if they give things away. Tangible gifts would have to cost someone. I like just the reward of earning points.

You get 25pts for every 30 days "active on the site"-ie, you log in. Go to your points page, and scroll down to the bottom, it will show you how many days you have been active on the site. I have been active 226 days since joining in May of this year (about 240 days ago).

I would like to see points given away at intervals when you use the site. Like at 100 days, 250 days, 500 days, etc. I think it would be great if we also had a jackpot for people who hit so many points in a certain period, ie daily, weekly, etc.

Wow, you're right-they don't correct the points! I guess I just assumed they would. I guess that's another reason for me not to pre-log what I PLAN to do...

I think if you just go back to the day you entered too much time and correct it to the correct amount of cardio, I think it auto-adjusts the points, doesn't it? IDK, I just assumed it would. Does anybody know?

Hey, I love that idea of donating your points to charity! Maybe we could get a sponsor to say they will have something tangable donated to a certain charity, and we could sign up for the one we wanted to donate to....something like that? Seriously, there's something cool in there somewhere...

Is there a way to "take out" points if you accidentally record the wrong amount of time for cardio, for example?

I agree with the crediting of points... I think that even if you pre-load all your points for food and exercise, they shouldn't all be credited to your account at once. They should continue to accrue daily.

I'd like to see the points for food tracking and message board posting increase...

It'd also be cool to trade points for items in the store.

Is there somewhere that shows how many points everyone has (sorry, I'm new)?

i'd like to be able to get more points for tracking food since i'm very meticulous about it.

I'd like to get points for staying within my calorie range. Some more incentive!!!

I also think it would be good to see how many points you get per month on the reports page so you can compare.

And I also think the max for posting to message boards should be upped as well.

And how to people rack up so many points so quickly?!!

prizes would be good as well.

I agree with AMBERJALYNN. I think we should get something tangible for each new trophy...at least for the ones over 1,000 or something.

People can't get unlimited points for posting because you get three per post, and the point max per day is fifteen (five posts).

I would like it if - somehow - it was impossible for people to post 5, 10 or even 15 times in a row on the message boards.

(to me, that is just point hogging!)

i think the points for emails should be reduced and points for message posts should be increased if not unlimited.

I think we should be able to trade our point in on SparkPeople stuff. Like t-shirts and mugs.

I think it would be cool if I could see how many points I have for each month and for each thing (like for reading articles or for exercise, etc).

I think we should get points for taking surveys (like what kind of exercise is your style, etc), because it helps me figure out what kinds of things I should try and what might work for me.

I think only the points through the current day should "show" in my total, even if I track ahead, and that the pre-tracked stuff should auto-add when that day comes.

anybody else got some ideas for making the points even better?
