Achievements

There's a new Wikia feature called Achievements, which gives "badges", "rewards" for edits etc. Would sound a good idea to me. How about you? Juze 11:32, August 25, 2010 (UTC)

Good To Know:

• Achievements are a good way to motivate users to get more involved.
• The score resets for everybody, so everyone starts with 0 points, no matter how many edits they've done in the past.
• "Achievement boosting" will happen, users who make useless edits to get achievements will be warned after the first offence, blocked after the second offence and finally banned if they persist.
• Badges are part of one of 3 classes, each with a specific point count. Bronze badges are worth 10 points, Silver badges are worth 50 points, and Gold badges are worth 100 points. When you get one of these badges, you get the corresponding points.
• Every achievement can be customized, so we can make them themed as Kongregate badges.
  • Administrators can customize the names and pictures of the achievement badges at Special:AchievementsCustomize
    • You can upload any .jpg or .png picture, and your picture will automatically fit inside the frame.
    • The framing works best when your picture is square, and when the most important part of the picture is right in the middle.
    • You can use rectangular pictures, but you might find that a bit gets cropped out by the frame.
    • If you do not like the picture that you have chosen, click "Revert to default" to go back to the original graphic.
• There is also a fourth class, namely "Platinum badges". These are worth 250 points and are given out on special occasions by Wikia Staff and Helpers. These badges may have a separate description, name and image which will be fit into a square frame. One may also choose if the badge does or does not appear in the recent badges list.

To edit Platinum badges, visit Special:Platinum on the wiki.
