Jinjo Posted December 25, 2021 Share Posted December 25, 2021 Ho ho ho, merry Christmas SBC! For this year’s Christmas present, as part of our current achievements system, we’ve added 4 brand new badges and redesigned the level ranks on your profile to fit the SpongeBob theme (courtesy of Patty for those). You may have already encountered the new badges by now, but they are: Voting Machine, Bran Flakes, Enchanted Tiki and Jellyfish Hunter. I'll explain later in the thread how to obtain them. For those not aware, we updated to IPS 4.6 back in late September which comes with their own new achievements system. Certain actions on the community will award you points using automated rules which will level up your rank. For veteran users, this may remind you of Tv.com's (rip) emblems and also a mix of vBulletin Experience. We also used this new feature as an opportunity reboot our badge system. However, I know a few users have had questions on how exactly this system works and how you earn points. I decided to wait until we had new badges to introduce before explaining in-depth. Now that we have those, here's a comprehensive guide on how to get points and what new badges you can obtain through this system. How to Earn Experience Points: Winning games such as SpongeBob Pictionary, Among Us, Kahoot, Jackbox and Cards Against Humanity gives you 300 experience points. Smaller games such as scavenger hunts or side quests may reward you 100 or 200 points. Becoming Featured Employee gives you 200 points. Winning in the Golden Community Awards gives you 200 points. Following a content item gives you 2 points Following a member gives you and them 2 points each Following 50 members gives you and the last member followed 20 points Joining 10 clubs gives you 5 points Making a piece of content (whether post, status, or a private message) gives you 1 point Reaching a post milestone give you certain amounts of points: Spoiler Reaching 10 posts gives you 5 points Reaching 25 posts gives you 10 points Reaching 50 posts gives you 15 points Reaching 75 posts gives you 15 points Reaching 100 posts gives you 20 points Reaching 200 posts gives you 25 points Reaching 300 posts gives you 30 points Reaching 400 posts gives you 40 points Reaching 500 posts gives you 50 points Reaching 600 posts gives you 60 points Reaching 700 posts gives you 70 points Reaching 800 posts gives you 80 points Reaching 900 posts gives you 90 points Reaching 1,000 posts gives you 100 points Reaching 2,000 posts gives you 200 points Reaching 3,000 posts gives you 300 points Reaching 4,000 posts gives you 400 points Reaching 5,000 posts gives you 500 points Reaching 6,000 posts gives you 600 points Reaching 7,000 posts gives you 700 points Reaching 8,000 posts gives you 800 points Reaching 9,000 posts gives you 900 points Reaching 10,000 posts gives you 1000 points Reaching 15,000 posts gives you 1500 points Reaching 20,000 posts gives you 2000 points Giving a reaction gives you and the user 1 point each Having 50 reactions gives you 25 points Having 100 reactions gives you 50 points Voting in 50 polls gives you 25 points Voting in 100 polls gives you 50 points Being on the site for 1 year gives you 50 points Being on the site for 5 years gives you 100 points Being on the site for 10 years gives you 1000 points Badges: Voting Machine: Vote in 100 polls (New!)
