I like Hunter's idea as it will provide a strong incentive to post. I'm just wondering, however, if people who post a lot will care about garnering lots of points since their posts will earn them a pile anyway. Unless you download EVERYTHING posted, having a stack of points becomes useless.
When I find a dead link - I'll either report it, or try and find a link for it and upload that link again. Been going through old links to find certain items. Found a few things. Got one that I should upload tonight.
