The Charter Badge

chillidoggy

I note that I'm one of the forum's Charter Badge holders, and I'm wondering what benefits go with such an honour?

monquixote

A free toaster.

I know that Sticky, I just wondered if there were, you know, benefits. Otherwise it's a bit like having a virtual sheriff's badge (non-rusty) and not knowing what to do with it, akin to a master's degree in how to drive a Sinclair C5. I'd have thought someone offering a free guitar set-up, or maybe offering to do the shopping for you would have been a better incentive. Or buying all your slash for an evening, and driving you home from the boozer.

You win the opportunity to buy the dev team a pint.

@chillidoggy, you get the opportunity to go toaster shopping, or go to a jam night and listen to all my "Jazznotes"..... the choice is yours... :-)

chillidoggy

Monquixote, if you ever dare to enter Planet Thanet, I'd be pleased to buy you a pint, as long as I don't have to listen to Mike's jizznotes!

mike_l

Really, @chillidoggy, you'd love my Jnotes, they're sometimes in key and everything........

@monquixote, when you get yourself over to Cambridge, I'd happily buy you a beer. Or a soda water. :-P

Not exactly and I certainly didn't mean it to sound like that, but they are a bit like Gamerscore awards on xbox and PS and some are obvious to get and some are a bit obscure.  I notice for example I have one for getting a LOL and a Faceplant as well as a couple for the number of posts made.  Somewhere in the "system" there will be a system for awarding these and i was simply curious as to what that system might be

monquixote

At the moment I think they are nearly all based on number of LOLs etc. We will be adding more over time.

holnrew

Aww, I came too late to get that badge.

I enjoyed the comment on my 10 facepalms badge.

I just noticed the charter badge is a rocket and I am space cadet. This pleases me.

Yes I am a dweeb.
