Awards/Achievements display

[MaximusR3]

just curious, what determines what is displayed over here on the left?

<-----

I've noticed some people it only shows awards, some only achievements, some both, and some none. Is there an option setting somewhere i overlooked? I thought maybe it just didn't display the category if you didn't have any but, like in my case, i do have a few achievements but it still does not show them.....or is it just me that can't see them?

also, on the subject, i noticed several of the site awards defaulted to "root", was that intentional?

I've been attempting to determine that myself, as my achievements do not show. however others do. I was thinking it was a permissions thing, but I've reviewed them and cannot see any discrepancies. I'll continue to research it today.

just curious, what determines what is displayed over here on the left?

I don't think so, I've looked through my profile, and don't see a toggle.

Is there an option setting somewhere i overlooked?

I don't think that's the case either, though I'm not sure if its the number? It might be because its over 5.. I'll try playing with that today.

Not "intentional", just set by default.

also, on the subject, i noticed several of the site awards defaulted to "root", was that intentional?

I'm gonna move this into the support forum.

[Ironhide400]

I just noticed that not all my achievements show? In my control panel I have 7, on the forums only 5? AND, what is the gift thingy that Lady has?

Only special people have those...from special friends

WAY TOO MUCH INFORMATION....lol!
I bet because your so AWESOME? That, or Max is a sucker for the Brit accent!

[MaximusR3]

because she is awesome! and i have been experimenting with the gift features in the market. i was able to get a standard gift to work but making a custom gift and giving it to someone still eludes me.....

[Ironhide400]

I was just giving her a hard time...lol! It actually says the reason for the trophy when you mouse over it.

I wondered where the gifting feature was. I will have to check it out.

Yes he was 'experimenting' on me

[MaximusR3]

yes, i know, not everyone cares about awards/achievements in the slightest but i still have another question:


how often do they update? I see, going by the stats page that there are a few torches that should have been passed in the awards section, and some achievements that should have been awarded but have not been.

examples:

master tagger is currently tracker with 6 tags, but smoke has 70
discussion ender is hitman but only has 5 posts total?
no one has earned any market achievements yet but i know there are plenty who have already spent more than 50 points in there.

[smoke]

STOP RIGHT THERE!!

I don't wanna have anything to do with whatever your letting max do on you!!!

[smoke]

I know there were a few bugs, and there has been a release, I just haven't applied it yet. I'll do that now, while I'm thinking about it.

lol come on, you know you are mildly interested.....

[smoke]

I am actually. But I shouldn't post that here.

BTW - I applied the experience update. How to the achievements look now?

lol come on, you know you are mildly interested.....

[Ironhide400]

I am still missing some achievements?
Max doesn't have any......

[smoke]

ugg.. ok, I'll keep on digging.

It still doesn't seem to be displaying correctly so I entered a support request on the developers website.
I'll let you all know when I hear some more information.

[Ironhide400]

There you go Max, I was able to purchase the gift that you created and Wicked created. How do they display on your end? Mine it shows some medals.

[MaximusR3]

yeah i just see two medals with no descriptions

[smoke]

ok, with some assistance from the developer, it looks like all the achievements are now displaying correctly. Let me know if you find any issues.

[jxspyder]

But now the overall participation dropped. I feel like such a slacker now, lol.
