Video Game Forum - Where's the Love?

[jefe323]

I was looking through the "status & badges" section of the members section and I noticed that the Video Game Forum doesn't have badge tracking. I also noticed under "check your rank" that the Video Game section was missing from Software

I think the games section does have badges. It's listed in the ranking page, right above the application section.
5 best answers = bronze
20 = silver
50 = gold

this is what looks like for me:

Have replies in the Linux/Free BSD section marked as the best answer. Linux Linux Linux

Gaming Gaming Gaming

Have replies in the Applications section marked as the best answer. Apps Apps Apps

Roll your mouse over the word 'gaming' in each column. It should display the number of best answers it requires for each.

 

[jefe323]

i got that, but there is no title like all the other badges

i.e "Have replies in the Applications section marked as the best answer"

 

[aford10]

Yep. Mine is the same way. I think you can still get badges. Though, I'm not 100% sure.

 

[jefe323]

Is there any way a title could be added?

 

[aford10]

That's something that JPishgar might be able to answer. I'm just a peon.

 

[jefe323]

ok, thanks

Yup, it does grant badges. Will have the text updated soon to reflect the appropriate subcategory.

 

[aford10]

Good deal....Thanks Joe.
