Splash Posted June 27, 2021 Share Posted June 27, 2021 (edited) .... We don't need no steenking badges. What's up with these? Do they have a meaning? And why is everyone a "Newbie"? Woohoo. Seems like I earned 7 of them just for showing up. 🤣 Edited June 27, 2021 by Splash Got some new badges. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gibsonm Posted June 27, 2021 Share Posted June 27, 2021 (edited) No doubt its a "feature". Next there will probably be "ranks" and other popularist "stuff". Probably an update that provided useful updates as well as "chrome" like this. Edited June 27, 2021 by Gibsonm 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Ssnake Posted June 27, 2021 Members Share Posted June 27, 2021 Yeah, I suspect an update of the forum software as a part of the regular maintenance that gave us extra features. Like electrolytes, that plants crave. Man, I could enjoy a can of Brawndo right now. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators Sean Posted June 27, 2021 Administrators Share Posted June 27, 2021 It came with a forum update. Trying to wrap my head around it now, but your "rank" goes up based on activity - thanking users for helpful posts, using the icon at the bottom right of every post, reviewing downloads, etc. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators Sean Posted August 10, 2021 Administrators Share Posted August 10, 2021 Hi, The new engagement stuff is in addition to the old stuff, all the old awards should be there and have never been removed. Thanks! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wax Savage Posted August 12, 2021 Share Posted August 12, 2021 Seeing the new server badges reminds me of parents dispensing trophys for participants in children's softball... "Everybody gets one" Is there any way to opt out or disable the badges ? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Ssnake Posted August 12, 2021 Members Share Posted August 12, 2021 I don't think so, but just like with Millenial Trophy racks, you can take them for what they're worth. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lt DeFault Posted August 16, 2021 Share Posted August 16, 2021 (edited) I don't understand how I can have a badge for making 500 posts and still be a noob. I am finding this all quite amusing, though. EDIT: Oooooh, I just got promoted to "Rookie"! 🤓 All noobs must now call me "Your Excellency"!

Clearly, the ranks are designed as a life-long career path. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
