Do you also reward your children for not misbehaving? Give me a break.
Not only is this symptomatic of people not taking responsibility for their 
own behavior, but it makes a statement that mediocrity is the norm.

When I submit a log it is "my best and final effort." When it is checked, it

should be given the benefit of the doubt, but detected errors (for whatever 
reason and using the technology available) should be removed. The penalty 
QSO's have probably outlived their usefulness, however.
