    Default Achievement Wrong



    Reader,

    I found no Feedback or Support forum so here we go...

    According to the Achievements I have hit 20 posts and clearly I have not at 12 or 13. Perhaps this small error/bug can be fixed.

    v/Respectfully,
    Keven

    keven,
    the system awards points for every post you make.
    also,for every day registered,it will actually double that too.
    this,iirc is also the same for post count.it's just an automated system for rewarding
    members for various things and loyalty etc.
    it is nothing to worry about buddy.
    hope this clears things up for you.

    clear skies,
    Then it sounds buggy and incorrectly coded; thus not correct.

    clear skies,
    I must disagree. Doubling the post count for an achievement is a bad idea and miss leading and poor planning and decision on the coder. It serves no purpose or benefit... useless feature...meaning useless lines of code.

    *The again maybe I'm just picky.

    This is great forum and this topic should be closed. The point system is just a fun side. The parts that matter are the great sharing of information, experiences and fun! I suggest we drop this issue for any further discussion.

    I agree with chuck on this, the point system is just for fun on this forum its not why we are here. But to try and clear up the first post on here...you get points for posting, for day registered, and other activity. Thats why you got the 20 post achievement is because of the points you earned ..not post. Hoped this helped.

    I agree with Chuck. The point is to get help and help people with questions. And to add insult to injury, this is for introductions, not feedback.
