This seems a bit hard to find Dupes.

EAnd here I go asking a bad question, it seems childish, what kind of prize is it? Money, pizza, unlimited arcade tokens, or what?

The award is a title!
It's somewhat similar to badges.
Only meaningful here in RGT!

 

[ZEGA ZONICZEGA ZONIC's icon]

Can we at least use Trophy points to earn rewards?
Cause some people have a lot of them.

 

[x_lodx_lod's icon]

O prêmio é um título!
É algo semelhante a distintivos.
Só faz sentido aqui na RGT!

OThank you, I can't stay straight through most of the afternoon.

Award titles are earned, not bought!

Now we’re cooking with gas (after I’m back from going to bed eheheh)

Well, some people will jump to find dupes first. And that won't be fair to the people that aren't here all day.

 

[JustLooking123]

Well, I'll post the first one myself as an example!

There's gotta be another way to do this. I don't think this is a good idea.

Why not?

It seems like it will take a very long time just to find dupes. This is a huge website with 14k threads

That's precisely why we need this topic to exist, though.

I remember asking people to help with that when the forum was a quarter of its size and very few volunteered for it.

At least have more ideas to reward people. This can't be the only idea that you have.

Hot takes

Welp, It's all in the title ya see. Share some downright horrid takes and opinions. I'll start...Errm...Uhhhh... Marvel VS Capcom 2 is one of the most overrated Capcom fighting games; let alone for the genre. While the mechanics can be enjoyable, I personally just don't enjoy the flashy, over...

[Mega Thread] Unpopular opinions

I think it would be safe to have a thread of just unpopular opinions as opposed to have a sea of threads of "This thing sucks" or "This is good actually." Neutral ground, they don't have to be hot takes, just takes you think are unpopular but these are takes that you personally have. My...

Would unpopular opinions count as the same as Hot Takes?

Don't worry, this is of course just the beginning!
This thread is just the kickstart of the new Award system... and there's much more to come!
Be patient, we are just starting!

Doing the Lord’s work once again, great stuff Glimbo.

At least have more ideas to reward people. This can't be the only idea that you have.

I’m sure complaining immediately when a genuinely good initiative is created is a great way to earn rewards.

It’s not a contest, it’s just being nice and helping mods out with a workload that’s evidently too big for them to handle alone (as there are 14k threads as you mentioned) for the sake of forum health.

 

[Clippy]

I used to help with this sort of thing before it was cool

Then I was told that the forum was becoming too big to keep track of and merge duplicates.

And now we've looped back to looking for them again. Circle of life I guess.

Oh well. I'll drop you a line when I see anything now that it's a thing again.
