HopesAnchor131 Posted October 9, 2017 Report Share Posted October 9, 2017 Just something I felt like throwing out there, there's lots of us who have been here 10 years+ (including me) how about a special badge icon when people reach 10 years on the forum? I mean I see some members are VIP, I don't know how that status is given but maybe the rank for 10 years+? If not, just a similar that says "veteran member" etc? Got bored and thought about it, opinions? EDIT: Yeah was probably a stupid idea from me anyways tbh as usual, nvm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlterNation Posted October 9, 2017 Report Share Posted October 9, 2017 You could always change your member title. <--------- See that above my avatar? Though I'm not sure if you still need a certain number of posts to change it anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Faster Than Light Posted October 9, 2017 Report Share Posted October 9, 2017 You could always change your member title. <--------- See that above my avatar? Though I'm not sure if you still need a certain number of posts to change it anymore. Yeah can't do that, it's a limit, 5000 posts I think. It was changed to 1500 posts I believe in recent years (a staff member could correct me on this) Anyways my thoughts on the topic (eh, I doubt anyone cares but eh). I wouldn't mind seeing a silver equivalent to the VIP group for people who have been active for 10 years and haven't been (too bad) disciplinary problems (or at least relatively recently). Pretty much a reward for being active for lets say 10 years That's something to be commendable by itself and could be a good reward for model veteran members members. And something to be taken away if the 'model' part no longer applies i guess. It's not necessary or anything, just throwing a bone really. And once you get up to 1500 posts, you could put 'Veteran Member' in your user title. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maskedmaniac Posted October 10, 2017 Report Share Posted October 10, 2017 What about special badges for those who have 20,000 posts? I'm almost there... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Faster Than Light Posted October 10, 2017 Report Share Posted October 10, 2017 a lot of forums in general have a trophy system that does give you a trophy for certain milestones, but that would require Tom Rice be present to turn it on. So, it's all on him I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Faster Than Light Posted October 10, 2017 Report Share Posted October 10, 2017 I think they've been trying to call him up for a new skin that's we are kind of overdue for Anyways, I said my thoughts on the topic. I'll bow out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CROSS-Out Posted October 10, 2017 Report Share Posted October 10, 2017 What about special badges for those who have 20,000 posts? I'm almost there... I'd be down for that, since a 10 year badge thing would be useless to me anyway. Too much lurking at the start. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

M3J Posted October 10, 2017 Report Share Posted October 10, 2017 VIP members are former global mods. Isn't there VIP and V.I.P? Thought we had few V.I.Ps months ago, those who weren't former global mods but were around long enough or something to become VIP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Muur Posted October 10, 2017 Report Share Posted October 10, 2017 VIP members are former global mods. Only some. For example - RVF was demoted to vanilla member. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KBC Posted October 10, 2017 Report Share Posted October 10, 2017 It would be kinda nice to see, especially because a lot of people probably see people's post count as a sign of them being a veteran member, when it's not the case. Plus, if this VIP thing was for former global mods, why don't I have it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
