What do you get for 23,943 Solutions in TH? "Tech Knight" RTX 2080

Those aren't solutions, those are "points". Not the same thing. BA's and points are completely different metrics.

 

[NightHawkRMX]

I think a new trophy should be a
Through theo trophy
for typing at least 200 characters a day for one month.

WRONG: Believe me I know.

Points: 157,940

Trophy: Post it with "1st" written on it

[Math Geek]

the one i liked from before, in the long long ago, was for having real popular threads.

for having a thread with 1,000 reads - Click Bait
for having a thread with 5,000 reads - People like me
for having a thread with 10,000 reads - Talk of the Town

trophy could be a bunch of people gathered round a newspaper to get a peak. something like

or maybe a paperboy holding it out if the first idea is too complicated for a small pic

Dead horse trophy: For the member who can't stop posting the same "good idea", bias, response, etc., a.k.a. Beating a Dead Horse.

Trophy image would have "dead horse" in the 3 stages of decomposition:

Level I: "Bloated" Fat carcass for 5 similar responses
Level II: "Maimed" Sunken skin and distributed body parts for 25 similar responses
Level III: "Beaten" Skeletal remains only for 50 similar responses

 

[Math Geek]

i love that one but how would the system know the poster is beating that dead horse?

 

[superninja12]

Im thinking about a trophy called: The gpu obsession

this will be obtained by not listening to op and still manage to fit a 1080ti /rtx 2080 ti inside the build.

Pros directing new comers to tools and giving a guiding hand to learning creation tools games come with or game servers.

 

[SSBrando]

I noticed most categories have three levels and when attained give 50, 100, and 500 points except for PC Gaming.
How about a fourth award for 500 points?
Name: "Hug a Baer"

-Image would maybe be a black and white picture of a teddy bear gaming on a mouse and keyboard?

First off, I think all "Master" should be changed to Meister, because its cooler.

Second there should be a Noob Meister trophy. For anyone under 100 or so posts who has been helpful as a member. Maybe determined by a certain number of solves.

he does have a point... Sorry, I will show myself the way out

its pretty obvious, its in his side panel. The bottom icon is his BA total. Wishful thinking perhaps¿

I wonder how many points you can get if you got every trophy. That would be one Award that will give the (new) Dark Lord something to aim for. Suspect like others here he is down to scraps when it comes to earning points.

 

[toxicwarrior7]

There should be a "Rapid Responder" trophy with a picture of a wheel with lines behind it (as if to show a high speed). This trophy can be awarded by answering x number of questions within 5-10 minutes of it being posted to show how willing you are to help in a jiffy!

[boju]

Designated system builders section where people go for inquires or suggestions on complete builds.

Trophies could start out with piece of wood & nail and then work toward a spanner and finally a hammer.

Something like that?

we already have this, its the Discourse trophy

forum can't tell difference between answers and questions as far as I know.. it might but there won't be many people who start a large amount of threads themselves.

 

[Darkbreeze]

I shouldn't even have to suggest this, since most of us already know it's the single most important component in any build, and should 1000% not be lumped in with other "components", but I I will anyhow since obviously it got overlooked even though it was conveyed that it would get it's own category this time around.

It's like the old joke about the ***hole, and how when it shuts down, everything else shuts down too, including the arms, legs and brain. Remember that. Yeah, it's like that with the power supply too. So if CPUs, graphics cards, memory and motherboards get a category, then power supplies should be a no brainer.

Power supply trophy

Bronze
Gold
Titanium

Icon below, or something similar.

 

[Colif]

Retro windows Trophy
Covers all forums from 8 to 95/98/ME

Expert
Authority
Master

Icon similar to the Win 10 ones.

They had individual badges before but lumped altogether makes more sense.

a trophy for the most informative one liner
