How much is 1000 forum posts worth?

How much is 1000 forum posts worth? Is there a way to calculate this?

I am asking this because I am planning on running a reward program on my forum..

Thats very dependant on the site, current post-count, quality of posts.

Probably something you're going to have to come up with on your own.

Thank you for your answers.

But isn't $0.10/post a bit high?

I'm not quite understanding your questions, what do you mean worth? Are you trying to appraise your forum? You mentioned a rewards program, but I don't see any relation between that and the worth of number of posts/members.

Care to elaborate?

On anything close to a "normal" forum site, I can't imagine a way to assess what the value of a single post would be, never mind 1000! Worth what, and to who?

No, I am not trying to appraise my forum. I just want to find out, if possible, how much 100 members and/or 1000 posts are worth.

What do you mean with "normal" forum.

THis is the forum I am planning on implementing the "reward system": Green Forum (Powered by Invision Power Board)
