I am sure somebody is already working on a forum style Steem design so that once can post an ANN in the forum and earn a few bucks with a good post. Maybe you could structure it in a way that each forum comment is it's on the post and has its own 12h cycle. The more your post gets quoted, liked and shared the higher your payment. There are many possible forms how we could integrate Steem in Forums. And the BitShares Forum is by far a treasure trove.
