    This is a well known and general problem with many sites not just Indusladies, or any particular forum. This problem is not really related to this particular award in my opinion.
    I don’t understand this statement actually or the reason for it. What would anyone gain from posting a concocted problem? It’s not like we are handing out trophies or cash or anything valuable… And for the record we are not.
    Moreover the person would have a track record of posting about their issue over a few months or year at least (with the problem, setbacks, issues, failed attempts etc) so their status as a genuine poster would have been long established.

    I got your objective. You are trying to create a repository of challenges encountered and how ILites succeeded in their efforts. Each person can link their challenges and how they handled them under each category in the forum. I was suggesting your this thread itself can serve its purpose. I gave links of my threads just as examples. Otherwise moderators of each sub forum should set up a sticky thread for this purpose. I am not sure how much admin support is available to handle it.

    I leave it up to the site admin to implement that as they see fit and as is most convenient to them. I have no objection to this thread being repurposed for that either.

    But there are few who may not be able to express themselves but continue to be dominant member. How to get such members involved to participate to post about the way they confronted and triumphed over it.
    There could be Rupas as in the story in link
    Rupa Behind Overwhelming Odds

    The thread remains truncated. Should it not be refurbished?

    It may look odd, but how do we know the person is telling the true story? I am sure, it is not a story competition. Quite a number of members post with a name that is not their actual name and that is quite okay. Who wants to share their personal information on social media? At the same time, it is also true that IL is a site where members share their or their friends' personal problems and seek advice without disclosing their names.
