Background

There are 2 major problems with the current Member point system.

• It should be a Policy, not a bylaw.
• What points are given for is ambiguous.

Language

• Remove Member Rewards Amendment from the bylaws.
• Create a policy called "Member Points" as follows:

Member Points

• Members may be awarded Membership Points for various things they do that benefit the space.
• Points can be redeemed to reduce a member's dues / increase member status.
• Points are valued at the difference between Full Membership and Starving Hacker Rates.

Things Points can be redeemed for

• Dues discount.
• Status increase - Get 1 month of full member status for the price of starving hacker membership.

Details

• Member points are awarded at the discretion of the Board of Directors, and may be or not be awarded for anything.
• Points have no cash value, and they expire 12 months after issuance.
• Points may be transferred from member to member.
