What exactly do you consider exalting someone for?

Starting a fun topic, making a VERY good funny comment, making an excellent point within a conversation, and/or an overall outstanding contribution to the boards.

dlw's pretty much nailed it. I've exalted people with whom I disagree because what they said made me think from a new perspective or because I felt they made their case well, even if I didn't agree. And for the various reasons already cited.

What Balok said, but I don't usually exalt for funny. I reserve it for people making what I believe is a positive contribution to the conversation, or simply being awesome. If I exalted for the funny, our friend Nutcase would be past dlw

If you make me laugh, you get an exalt.
If you make me laugh while I'm drinkin milk and it caomes out of my nose and makes my kids laugh too you get a bonus.
Genuine thoughtfully proved points that bring out something I hadn't realized.
Being a peacemaker in the midst of an out of hand argument, because that benefits the board
Not talking to me about the gruesome twosome (don't you do it Bong)

Uhm, I usually not exalt for funny posts (so far at least), because I don't want to abuse the system. My past exalts have been for very good explanations, and especially for research work, review work, actions towards the forum etc

I wish I could've tied these two posts together but then my main point would not have been as clear.
You can see between the two subjects we all SAY we'refar more apt to exalt than to smite. and we have far more reasons to exalt than to smite.
