docdave Posted June 27, 2021 Share Posted June 27, 2021 Hi All, I recently started noticing badges on my Accordance profile page, and while for the most part they are self explanatory, I had a few questions. For example, I have a badge called "One Month Later," marking a month since I joined the forum. At the upper left part of the badge it says "Rare" and I wondered what that means. At the lower right of the badge is the number 30, and I couldn't figure out what that means either. Many thanks! Dave 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ScottDF Posted June 27, 2021 Share Posted June 27, 2021 Often on forums and such 'Rare' means not many have achieved it, at least thus far. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's what I would have expected. It appears that various things like rank haven't carried over to the new forums and are slowly building up.

Yes, I was thinking this is probably the case also, but I couldn't understand how being on the forum for 1 month could qualify as a rare event. I think I also have one for 1 week on the forum which is also labeled "Rare"! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ScottDF Posted June 28, 2021 Share Posted June 28, 2021 At the beginning of using a system like this, everything is going to be Rare, unless they take into account previous activity, which it doesn't look like happened. I'd give it a few months and see how things fall out. This would work out pretty well for a brand new forum. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kristin Posted June 28, 2021 Share Posted June 28, 2021 Hi Rick, Thank you for the screenshot. Could you explain what "rare" by all of the badges mean? A few people have mentioned that "rare" on forums often means unique, but all of our badges say it, so it seems to mean something other than that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R. Mansfield Posted June 28, 2021 Share Posted June 28, 2021 I don't know for certain, but I believe Scott is probably right--with it being a new system, right now, everything is rare. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darin Franklin Posted June 30, 2021 Share Posted June 30, 2021 "Rare" means that the number of people who have earned the achievement is less than a certain value which can be configured in the forum settings.

ukfraser Posted June 30, 2021 Share Posted June 30, 2021 (edited) There is an indication of the points needed but there does seem any description of what a point actually is. This reminds me if the best commentaries website where resources are given scores but there is no indication of how the score is calculated. Im guessing its all based on something similar to the Triganic Pu and Ningi. Edited June 30, 2021 by ukfraser 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
