Is Gamification a Tool for Driving Forum Engagement

[Dominique]

I have been on some forums where gamification is a main element whereas in some forums there is no such thing as gamification. Do you think gamification elements, like badges, levels, or rewards, can significantly boost user interaction. In case you are running to forum what systems have you implemented? Are there specific gamified features that are specific for your community?

I don't think so. Well gamification certainly adds fun elements in the forum but just because you can get cool badges and other things doe snot mean people start posting or continue to post.
