Any chance we'll see forum achivements like Co-Optimus here?

[Hawkzombie]

Why? MagGnome would have them all the first day :p

[Farsight]

Isn't "forum achievement" an oxymoron?

[BigJonno]

Dear God, I hope not.

[Stoke]

Dear God, I hope not.

I second this. I don't know how they work on CO but I can't think of any way they'd be an improvement.

[Jackel]

Fuck no...

[Ten19]

I personally don't see any reason to implement forum achievements. We all play enough games, no reason to make the forum one as well.

[Kelegacy]

The whole achievement thing was fun at first but it's become a sad standard. Look what it has done to people like ElectroDragon.

We are like Pavlovian dogs. What is wrong with us?

[Hawkzombie]

Pavlovian

Ugh, now I'm drooling. Fuck you.

[Scaryfaced]

There's a reason Pavlovian responses are important. And it isn't become dog's have that reaction.

[Chris_D]

Mmm, pavlova.

Oh thank you! 360 achievements steal enough of my life as it is. I don't need this site sucking the rest of my life away with more points to rack up.

[Troggles]

No.

In fact, I wish we could remove post totals.

[bapenguin]

We really only have 5 achievements for forum milestones -the rest are tied to adding community features like posting blogs, entering contests, adding games to your library for match making, and fun things around those -

Like you've added 10 games that support couch co-op is an achievement. Etc.

We use them to encourage users to comment on our recurring editorials and the like.

I'll respond with my same opinion on Forum Avatars: Enabled, but optional. You can't see them if you don't want to.

The thing is, if we turn off avatars, they'd just be. . . off. But if we turned off our visibility of forum achievements, people would still be out there, trying to get the things, and we'd still be interacting with them. It's a system which cannot effectively be hidden.

And now that you went and explained it, the people who didn't want them now know the truth without figuring out anything! We almost had them convinced!

I...I you broke something in my braind.

Has anyone really been far as decided to use even go want to do look more like?

[digitalErich]

I don't think I would much care. If implemented it would just be achievement system number 27 for me to ignore.

[MagGnome]

Mmm, pavlova.

Mmm, baklava.

Wait, what?
