Stack Overflow has been one of my best sources to gain knowledge on JavaScript.
Some answers have been exceptionally helpful - eye opening - and I'd like to know if there's a way to reward the authors beyond upvotes and bounties.

1Not really. That is kind of the "currency" of SO if you will. Did you have something particular in mind?– BartCommented Jun 10, 2012 at 19:53

1A few intrepid users out there list Amazon.com wishlists on their profiles.– Michael BerkowskiCommented Jun 10, 2012 at 20:04

2Don't, btw, "thank" someone by going and upvoting a bunch of their other answers. That's called "serial upvoting", and will usually be detected by the system and undone.– Michael BerkowskiCommented Jun 10, 2012 at 20:05

@Bart I was thinking about donations. Some contributors have their own website with a donate button, but I was wondering if there was a way that could apply to anybody.– ChristopheCommented Jun 10, 2012 at 20:06

@Michael excellent points, thanks! I am afraid I am going to upvote all your comments ;-)– ChristopheCommented Jun 10, 2012 at 20:07

1If the person want to be contacted he usually would leave contact details in his/her profile. Use them to ask him directly, I'm sure many won't mind some hard coin. :)– Shadow WizardCommented Jun 10, 2012 at 21:07

The best way a student can reward his/her master is by becomming a master himself.
So keep contributing by asking great questions and giving great answers.

6+1, though I do wish you'd put a "young grasshopper" in there.– BartCommented Jun 10, 2012 at 19:57

1+1 It always pleases me when I see after a few months, a user who's shown up initially with dozens of questions capitalize that by turning around to become a prolific and helpful answerer. Commented Jun 10, 2012 at 20:19
