Lewis 1,276 Posted March 30, 2017 Monthly Awards -These could be removed after a month from the persons profile, or stay with a date reminder - e.g June 2016. Depends how clustered you think it'd get. If you only decided to institute one of the below, it'd only be 12 awards a year, ideally spread out over several people. If you didn't want to keep these awards visible each year they could either be removed from immediate visibility and placed on the players profile - possible? Or change them to a half yearly thing. Member of the month - Speaks for itself Moderator of the month - " " Forumer of the month - Hopefully would encourage enlightening threads and increased activity. Could be due to a popular thread, a good suggestion or just purely a mad amount of helpful forum activity. Prison Breaker of the month - Doesn't have to be most hours, can be taken many ways. A new member fitting in, exceptional rebelling, good mod decisions, helping new players, innovative wardening. Newbie of the month - Something for new players to strive for once entering the community, or after acceptance to membership. Unspecific Awards Subject to Opinion Lifetime Service - Given to recognise long term commitment to the community. Event Exceptionale v1 - An award to recognise event hosting contribution. Certain amount of events hosted, or other determinants. Event Exceptionale v2 - An award to recognise an individuals commitment to events. May have attended 10+ in a row, may be recognised by admins as always on time, always following commands, helping things consistently run smoothly over multiple events. Event of the year - Individual was part of a team who hosted the community-chosen event of the year Moderator of the year - Conor+Unseen short list to 3 people they think deserve the title. Community then votes for their preference. Initial phase allows for the legitimate candidates to have their deserved chance, not just the older, more community-popular ones. Best CS Frag movie of the year - We get a lot of these posted, perhaps another community vote after shortlisted by a non-biased, experienced bunch for the best youtube movie made by a community member. Other Awards 1 Year Membership - For 365 days of consistent membership, without dissenting into regular status. Could possibly do for 2-3 years. 1 Year Moderatorship - Same concept as above Donning Donator - Indicates a user who has donated a certain amount you deem worthy of recognition. Perhaps beyond the VIP usergroup quantity, as that already exists. Also easier to see as an immediate badge. Jailbreak King - An award for the most hours spent on Jailbreak over a (3 month OR 6 month OR 1 year period) 5+ 10+ 15+ Events Won - Up to you how far back you'd want to go to start counting winners, and would obviously continue, would be willing to help here. No sleep - Award given to the user who's spent the most minutes in a day on jailbreak. Easily done by gametracker, but maybe you can't distinguish between the idlespec hours and the actual active hours :/ I Gather I - Award given to the user with the most OB gathers on popflash in the last 31 days. Award doesn't change each month, stays until record is broken. Oldest Member - Individual is the oldest member in the community (age wise - not time spent in the community) Individual Event Winner - When an event is purely an individual one, that gets recognised as a badge. 'Individual won April 2018 Deathrun'. No recognition for team events, but they can contribute to the number of events won badge. 21 Skeff, Jamie, gaffeR and 18 others reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post

With the introduction thread and first reputations one it would be put into a newbie(think steam badge for community award?) Overall some of these are good, the biggest promble with these awards ATM is that I want them at a high quality which takes time to do each badge so if anyone wants to try and help out message me ~ Sent from phone 10 JME, UnSeen, IrishChamp and 7 others reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post

Dyer51 2 Posted March 30, 2017 I think there needs to be a badge for longest period of absence before returning. Not that I suspect I'd have that badge or anything. 1 Jamie reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post

Stiqqy 592 Posted April 2, 2017 (edited) Surf awards for those who won , also stick with the more opinionated awards conor, maybe make a thread about it and then have moderators/admins approve posts so you can filter the trolls, like with posting on member apps etc. Edited April 2, 2017 by Stiqqy 1 Oldmike reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post
