Users who significant post counts, like counts, win QoTWs will be rewarded with achievements on their ID. Occasionally special achievements will be given out.

Blogs will appear on the front page when they receive enough likes. The current requirement is nine likes. This is changed from time to time. Blogs that contain swear words, or have otherwise offensive content will be flagged to never appear on the front page despite how many likes they receive.

A Question of The Week is a question asked weekly by Vusys, and suggested by users. All users have a week to post a blog in the QoTW category answering the question. The blog that gets the most likes after the week will be rewared with a "QoTW Winner #X" award on their ID. In the event of a draw, multiple users will be given the award. Former QoTWs are archived in a sub forum, along with a sticky where users are welcomed to submit their own questions.

Either PM Vusys or use the contact form if the bug is critical enough to present a security flaw if posted publicly on the forums, otherwise you can post it on the forums. Users who report bugs that lead to fixes will gain a Bug Catcher achievement.
