Lodestone medals?

[Felis]

Wow, they just find another way to keep you pay !

What, who payed?
I'm paying maybe in the future, but I didn't pay today and the last months.

I don't mind the medals. They are a nice addition but not more.
I hope the avatar changes are coming soon (your ingame image as avatar)

Are these medals going to become anything interesting?

Well, according to yesterday's forum update, the medal-awarding algorithm changed so that you get medals based on how many "likes" you get, instead of how many posts.

But

I think they forgot to reset the overall medal count from before, so everyone still kept their post-count-based medals. What they need to do now, is to reset everyone's medals back to zero.

Or, just get rid of the medal system altogether.

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

Oh great, now they just went and made this into a popularity system.

WHY? I'm with the ditch the medal solution.

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.

Well as long there's no type of rate down option a la the Zam forums, I'm fine with how it is now.

Hey, if Kilta_Firelotus has zero medals now, I think the system appropriately represents things well enough.

That's because she got a temp ban. When she comes back, she'll have all her medals back ( I think).

[Cutriss]

Ah, I was wondering if that's what happened, thanks.

Maybe next she can get a temp ban from my state.
