Yeah, if you're just, what I call "shit posting," as in small talk, not really adding to the conversation or topic at hand, why reward that?  It doesn't merit a reward, let it just be text!  Don't be greedy!  At this point, I could splash a hundred bucks on my comments, but I don't, because only an asshole would do that.  And I try not to be one of those :-).  I want to see this work.
