if giving out best responses and being awarded a BR are paid...

maybe, but it's not a guarantee. :) some people claim that there's a minimal incentive for receiving BRs but until now, i'm not entirely sure and i haven't asked mylot about that. it would be nice though, coz i received several BRs already and translating that to a few cents somewhat would all add up to a dollar someday (lol). however, with or without payment, BRs are just so nice to receive and to give out. makes one feel appreciated. :)

Oh I am sure it would, but there will still be those that either are not aware of it or just forget about it. I do it cause it's doing something nice for some one else. I didn't even know until 6 months later that it was giving the person I picked an extra point, so that was a nice surprise. :oD
