Yes, that's still a concern. But I'm sure we can work out a way of encouraging 'worthy' posts which avoids this problem

We may review the "shares for posting" incentive soon (e.g. have it based on posts being thanked, not just posted)
Personally, I don't see how 'rewarding' people for all posts is going to help the argument that the shares are any more worthy than Monopoly money.
Shares are sometimes being offered in lieu of leading cashback rates, with the argument there may be some future worth in them. At the same time, though, these very same shares are being doled out willy-nilley for any forum comment, be it useful advice/a deal, or just starting new, repetitive, threads for the sake of getting extra shares.
Of course incentivising posts that are thanked a lot/post of the month is understandable, but any & every post?
I'm sorry I'm sounding a bit disrespectful, but I'm the first to admit I'm not quite convinced by the shares argument yet.

Thanks for this on behalf of everyone. You can never have too many stats.

We may review the "shares for posting" incentive soon (e.g. have it based on posts being thanked, not just posted) but I think it's been successful. I don't detect much 'artificial' posting, and the report also shows a clear trend -i.e. for more posting and posters, regardless of incentives. :)
