Been keeping an eye out for the USB chargers to come in stock.
Also very sad that the magnets & stickers have been gone for so long, especially for those of us who don't (even pre-Covid) get to hit a lot of the shows to swipe them from the booth.
just some ideas..
A network tech case like this isn't too expensive:

Something like a Fluke tester is has a higher price tag, but maybe Solarwinds could partner up to get it at a discount, since they'd get somewhat decent exposure.

Pls add INDIA to the list of countries so we can make use of the Thwack store.
Solarwinds branded face masks/gloves?Branded Wireless earphones, wireless charger pads.
I cant buy SCP voucher as South Africa is not listed. I tried changing it to United States just to check and the saving button just keeps turning forever and a day with nothing happening.
hats, both ball-caps and beanies...
How about restocking the solar USB charger with enough stock to actually give people a chance to get it. I check the store every day, and the first time I saw the charger it was already out of stock. Never even had a chance. And my gosh, I don't understand why it takes 6+ months to restock anything!
Wanted to have France delivery
I like the t-shirts and apparel you guys have, but the sad truth is your XXL is to small for us larger folk and I have only seen one or two that came in 3XL and they were gone fairly quickly. Luckily I picked one up and am actually wearing it today.
Sizing is hard from a manufacture and they tend to charge more for larger sizes, I understand that. I would be willing to "spend" more points for the larger size if that helps to keep more of them in stock?
Also, what happened to the big ticket items? Like the corn hole set and other 100,000 items. I was so close to a set and then boom, gone. Gives me something to shoot for and look forward to. We need stuff to look forward to in these times.
Thanks for the opportunity to give feedback!
How about personal licenses so I can run SW on my home network?
I'm still using my Raspberry Pi from thwack!
I'd like to have an option to buy anything outside US, UK or Germany
I would also like to see a personal license, so I could run it at home for testing and playing.
a SW set of D&D dice would be sweet, just having it as an Option makes me think it might happen.
All of the above, but how about some shirts in Tall sizes. LT, XLT, XXLT ? There are tall IT folks you know!
Wireless charging pad, battery pack, Google mini, Amazon echo...
Amazon Gift Cards, please. It would be sweet for us to be able to spend 10,000 points for a $100 gift card. Yes, it would be even better to get a $100 card for 1,000 points or 100 points, but I'm not unreasonable.
SysAdMania (or an update to it)
Hammock
Can you please add the entire EU, not only GB and DL to the country's that can order THWACK store items. We would appreciate that !
Thanks !
I wanted to vote more than once! I ended up with Tech Gadgets because they are usually super fun but they also tend to sell out the fastest.
Is there a vote option to just re-stock what's already in the store more often? I've had my eye on the solar charger for a while but can never seem to get in quick enough to get it.
My second option on the list is Dice. Because dice. Because we're all nerds here and that's okay.
Is there an expiration on the SCP voucher?
If use points for a voucher, how long do we have before the voucher expires?
Thanks!
Add The Netherlands as a shipping option.
Does the SCP voucher expire ?
I voted tech gadgets but also wanted to pick dice.
I'd say Visa or Amazon gift cards would be nice to have!
Gift Cards i.e amazon or visa.
Mini Fridge
Amazon Gift cards, 10,000 points for $10 gift card or $100 would be better
Looks at my Thwack point total.
The spree my wife would go on with that much Amazon credit... <shudder>
Tall sizes for the shirts would be great!
i neeeed a baseball cap
Yes, the SCP voucher expires 6 months from date of purchase.
Pens and/or stickers come for free in all store purchases.
Hey @rmullal! The SCP voucher expires 6 months from date of purchase.
You let YOUR WIFE see you Thwack point total? (shakes his head) You poor soul . . .
;^)
Those are your points, my friend, to do with as you please. If it pleases you to let your wife shop with them, then they're points well spent!
I am actually against this, as this could potentially cause outsiders to try to create fake accounts to game the system and monetize activity for $
Nuts. You're right.
However, if banks & the PCI and Amazon can secure online accounts, couldn't Thwack?
Naw, it would probably be cost-prohibitive.
Nuts. Darned people.
I got badges with my last order. unfortunately my 4 year old was sitting next to me when I opened it so they were gone haha
Thanks @OliviaP ! do you know how they are doing the testing now with the pandemic going on? is it still all in person?
Good question, @rmullal! All exams are given remotely online through a third-party company called PSI. Let me know if you need anything else!
@daniellehThanks!
I'm going to agree with @-_- that this would most likely be the end of the system. Full little solarwinds branded toys or geeky stuff is one thing but you start handing out (essentially) cash, and that would likely be the end of the system. Plus even at your highest exchange rate that would be wholly to much for Solarwinds. I've been participating regularly on this site for just over a year now. Basically daily interaction and trying to learn and network and communicate with fellow admins and tech minded people. While I would say I've had high engagement I wouldn't say it's atypical of the other users I see on here. I've accumulated just shy of 80,000 total points. Is one year of my time interacting with the site for a few minutes a day worth $800? Probably not. You spread that out to everyone here? The program would bankrupt almost instantly.
I like amazon gift cards as much as the next guy, but I don't think this is the system to get them.
Now some smaller limited sweepstakes type interactions? Say 100 or 1000 points to buy in to the raffle, with a limited known number of entries, and the winner of that walking away with a giftcard? Maybe something like $25 or $50? That could be interesting.
