Badging Madness

Published Monday, March 10, 2008 7:04 PM by Sam

Most of the Members on our community site are familiar with the concept of badges. We don't want to label people into certain groups, but we do want to point out to all members of the Lionhead community what certain members do or what they've achieved. This is why we're using images, called badges, which are displayed on a user's post profile bit. For example Lionhead employees will have a Lionhead Dev badge, etc. Badges are given to people by Lionhead Administrators.  

With the help of our former-HK members and moderators have introduced a new set of badges for our members! You can see the entire list here.

Some of these have been handed out to people today (there are some oldbies, lurkers and naughty members) so congratulate them if you see anyone. Apart from naughty members, because they've been...well...naughty.

Cool stuff Sam!  I'll definitely be keeping an eye out for members who might deserve one or more of the badges.

Like Sam said, we handed out a few badges today and will be handing out even more as time goes by.  Congrats to those who received one.

Hmm nice idea, but I am think that you should give out badges for those who live in certain forums eg, fable, b&w, the movies. Not all of us play all the games and it would not make sense for someone who plays one certain game to be in a forum for a game that they never play.
I do not whinge much..but as a female I enforce my right! Big Smile [:D]

do you get one if you visit everyday but dont neccessarily post more than once, becuase thats what i do. well most of the  time i contribute. P.S i think there should be level in between member and senior member because i saw a guy who had posted 700+ posts but was still a member.

I was a little worried about it at first, but reluctantly grew to accept my Modder badge Smily [:)] Thankfully answering "yeah, scripts" does a lot to deter people from asking for stuff Big Smile [:D]

Oh No! labels everywhere! I'll make my own badge: The Invisible Badge Of Cosmic Self-Importance!  It is for normal people who are to lazy to work more than average but feel bad about not being the best in their group.  Also, a "doesn't work hard but still excells in academia" award would be nice . . . Why is everyone backing away?  Why me? Why??? . . .

i like this award giving achievements cause it makes me want to post more comments.  i want to be categorized and to be put into groups it gives me a sort of meaning to things.  it gives me a reason to come up with excuses. like for example the brigmires test, where u are giving four letters and it is dependent on your personality and i am an ENTP, the visionary quiet guy kind of the thing.  i blame being quiet on the fact that i am an ENTP and therfore i see categorizing and reward giving rejoicing and entertaining.
