We are excited to announce a new point structure for the Symantec Connect Rewards program. This new point structure is the result of feedback from you, the users.
No longer is there a maximum number of points that you can earn when you contribute to the community. And no longer will the community managers be responsible for determining the number of points you will receive per content item. Also, you’ll find that content that is of little value to the community is no longer given the same weight as valuable solutions and information.
Beginning today, Monday, 11 May, 2009, you will receive a baseline number of points for each contribution you make, and the community itself will determine the total number of points you will receive for your contribution. When another community member finds your content valuable, he or she can give it a “thumbs up” vote. Each thumbs up vote will add points to...

Hi all - a few days ago I wrote about several changes we made in response to feedback this community provided. Today, we're making several additional changes that I want to make you aware of.
One of the biggest concerns with Connect has been how to navigate to and post forum discussion threads. We created a very flexible architecture that allowed you to post a forum discussion in more than one product board. Unfortunately, this caused some confusion. So, starting today, we are making a few changes to the forums to make them behave more like a traditional forum. This will, of course, result in the loss of some of that fancy multi-tag functionality, but based on your feedback, ease of navigation is more important. You asked for it, you got it. Here's what we are doing:
FORUM LISTING PAGES: Previously we had one listing page of forum threads...
There have been a number of questions about what the little pieces of pie next to usernames mean. It is simply a quick, visual way for users to identify the lifetime contributions that different users have made to the site. Where possible, we have transferred over status from the Juice, STN and the Altiris Support Forums. (For example, STN users received 3 points for every post on the old site. Juice user points transferred straight across.) You can find out how you can earn points that contribute to your status here.
