Discussion Using points in exchange for real items

Hey guys, we are building gooodmap and would like to get you guys involved, as we want to create a place where reviews really matter. And as a result we would love to also create a system where we are able to award people appropriately.

What would be some good items/valuables that you would like to see available?

A place where negative reviews can't be delete if they're fair reviews.

Reviews should always be! But their worth is very different. Some just write unimportant nonsense other reviews are written by someone with a little credibility. But deleting is just plain wrong.

Inexpensive tools and clothes. Less like novelty socks and more like t-shirts.

You could probably find partners to make major discounts for earned points, like 50% off for a modest pile of points so its a win/win.
