How do badges work? Or why did I lose my Regular again?

Why did I lose my Regular badge again, when I see people having it which werent logged in several years??

Hey there,

This is a question for @AndyB, as they maintain the technical side of the forums.

So there will probably never come an answer…

I also had the Regular badge, I think it is a badge that only last as long you keep a certain forum activity :slight_smile:

That’s why I lost my regular status!

Since I don’t have the Isle of Siptah yet and a completely new category appeared, I don’t want to read it because I want to explore the new stuff myself.

Thanks @Narelle

Seems i losted it also due not spammed the forums enough :wink:

Also at @Frillen
But you only lose it, when you come again in the forum or how are there people being >1 year OFFLINE and still have the Regular badge?

Also it kinda looks like that 90% who have that badge, are either Mods or working for Funcom anyway…

And they will therefore never lose it. For what is that badge even for :smiley:

I would assume that the badges are only updated once the person actually logs in again.

If you examine the requirements, you will notice that it actually takes more reading than spamming :stuck_out_tongue: 20 likes + 10 posts in 100 days is not something I would consider spam.

The requirement to have no more than 5 spam or offensive flags makes this impossible. People flag randomly in the forums lately just for the laughs and this post will probably get flagged as well. :smiley:

There is a requirement for them to be confirmed by moderator though. So flagging on its own shouldn’t be a problem even if abused.

Didn’t know that. :sweat_smile:

This is really useful, I’ve been looking for this for quite a while. Where did you find it? I’m asking because there might be more interesting info along with it, thank you :slight_smile:
