Lodestone medals?

[TheVedis]

Well, at least it's a little better than how it was before - getting medals for making a ton of posts, regardless if what you're posting is good or not.

Yeah
when i saw Kilta go from the most medals, to 0 medals, i laughed, and i now think all is right in the world with this medal system.

Check the dev tracker, it always has the latest community rep posts (the ones that are important)

That would certainly explain how I saw one person with 900+ posts and only 1 gold, 3 silver, while another person with only 700+ posts had 2 gold, 3 silver. Forum feature updates are among the dev tracker posts that I pass over. I personally don't see the problem with it. Not that I hadn't figured it out before, but now I can easily see for the most part who has something good to say.

My medals fluctuate often correlating, but not always, with what profile comes up in my sig. If my egg one comes up where my lancer isn't on it, it's 1 gold star. If it comes up non-egg and my lancer IS on it, 2 gold stars. Dunno.

I still can't fix this freaking profile...there the egg one is again.

This system is much better than it was before. Its not something you should pay too much attention to, but its a great to be able to determine who you can take up a serious discussion with based on how many medals they have. Its not the best way to determine something like that, bu it still helps.

You can still abuse the system by making threads like if you X job like this post or this job like this post!

Eh it's still better than post counting. We don't even see the "if you like X like this, if Y like this" much.
