I was thinking of setting up a community Awards or Medals, small little trinkets that would appear below your name on forums. These would be very specific awards either pertaining to a specific event, milestone or just a Admin based reward.

Thoughts on 5 awards/medals we can start with?
 
1. Founding Ember

Granted to members who were present during the forum’s earliest days. This medal marks those who helped light the first spark of the community.

Joining during the launch period
Participating in early discussions or founding events

A permanent symbol of origin, history, and seniority.



2. Pillar of the Forum

3. Milestone Marker

Description:
Recognizes meaningful milestones in a member’s journey within the forum.

Awarded for:

Long-term membership anniversaries
Creating a first major or featured contribution

4. Beacon of Excellence

Oh, I realise these medals are advanced, lemme try to configure more beginners-oriented to begin with...
 
These are still some great medal ideas. I did have the same Founding member medal on my list too. Still working on my list, will share once I have atleast 5 solid beginner friendly medals.

Okay, noted. The better be swaggy and classy xD
 
I started implementing badges today!! Hopefully I can find more awesome badges to give users. Suggestions are welcome! Started with a special award for founding members.
 
Thank you Captain Nous!! :>
 
Capt, where are you xD
 
Fear not, for I am still around haha!

I will apply the founding member awards to the first 50 members who join the forums I suppose. There is probably a way to automate this, need to check on it once I get home. Need to work out the rest of the awards in the meantime.
 
Aye aye capt'n!
 
Don't Forget about gaming and cosplaying! :D

I mean a cosplaying section would be up for discussion if members are up for posting photos tho. 😅
To get that, we'd have to post our cosplay photo here? XD
Haha, would love to see the creative cosplay outfits members are upto these days. I myself don't dwell in cosplay tho. 🫣
 
I can post my cosplays, i don't mind, but i don't want to be the only one! :ROFLMAO:
 
Maybe we can get a few more members to weigh in here maybe @Senkusha or @Korok ? Do any of you cosplay?
 
Maybe we can start by posting famous cosplayers or cosplay parades videos.
 
Kinda agreed. But it def gain traction, won't it?

This is not a bad idea at all. Maybe we can start with a thread over at the 'Creative Corner'? Before we create a new forum for Cosplay alone.

If it gains traction we can move it over to a forum of its own.
