FWIW - The openSUSE Technical Forums which is typical of many Technical Forums automatically tracks and compiles statistics on User activity. Although elsewhere I usually see recognitions automatically applied, it looks to me like the openSUSE forums apply recognitions manually (all at once, periodically).
IMO Marketing is severely hamstrung by using this Mailing List as an expedient tool(something that "just works").. When/If the pain is great enough that as a group we decide to move to a different tool that can similarly track/compile/aggregate statistics in the background, it's going to be a monumental task to recognize people so I doubt that things like voting and forcing certain activities will go far. In other words, it's one thing to express a desire and need, it's another thing to endorse an investigation, a pilot, and then possibly a move.
