Link to RBW Rewards Program page - 
https://www.rivbike.com/pages/reward-program

Over the weekend, I had a couple of people submit links to their personal 
referral page for the updated Rivendell Reward Program.  It took me a 
minute or two to recognize that this wasn't a spam attempt.  

The core issue is that people can "Invite" other non-enrolled people to 
join, which both assists them (the Inviter) by adding points to their total 
and increases the amount of "Onboarding" points which the Non-Enrollee 
receives. 

It does seem - as they say - very "win-win"... 

However, I'm already of the opinion that the the FS/FT/WTB/etc. posts are 
expanding to the detriment of general list content (and, yeah, I know, if 
you want to change that, look first at your own contributions...) and I 
don't want to now see countless threads of "HEY HEY CLICK HERE!" added to 
that.  

By the same token, I want everyone in this group to take part in the 
Rivendell Rebate/Rewards Program, which gives points for social posts (i.e. 
getting the word out) as well as writing reviews and doing other exemplary 
RBW Citizenship tasks.

The challenge becomes how to balance these two seemingly opposing desires.  

Here's my solution:  ONE thread (this one) in which you are welcome to 
comment with your specific URL for the RBW Rebate Program.  Share your link 
and any comment you wish to add.  That lets non-enrollees enter with the 
maximum amount of Rivendollars, with the specific benefit to whomever gets 
selected as the "Point of Entry" into the program.  

Those of you who are not enrolled are welcome to choose whomever you wish 
(or no one) according to whatever guidelines you want (consistently great 
posts here, thanks for technical help, etc.).  BUT - please keep your 
"thank you's" on private channels (i.e. email the person directly or thank 
them in person) rather than adding to the traffic here.

I will remove separate posts with RBW Reward Program urls.

Questions - please contact me directly!  Thanks & may the Rivendollars 
always be in your favor!
