For those of you browsing v2, you know what this is. For those of you stuck in v1.5, badges are like achievements. When you do certain things, you unlock the respective badge. Badges range from moderately easy to extremely difficult to achieve. Below is a list of currently active v2 badges, as well as upcoming v2 badges.

For (7.) Isn't it 111 posts in Official Aether Discussions instead of 100?
-
Love Badges! Gotta catch 'em all!!!
Watch out for me gym leaders I will get those badges!
-
Those are awesome! Gives me a challenge :)
Are badges active now?
-
I think they are, are they not?
I see some of yours highlighted.
-

Yes but there are plenty of other ones that I have completed.

magicaddicts has a GOLDEN CLOVERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

Long way to go...
And you've got the..blue bulls-eye?
-

Yes, that and a bunch of others :)
-
when are we going to to get upgraded to the v2 discourse ?
-
This is very awesome, an I'm glad they are finally working. Since I won a proto card, will I get the "Winner" badge?
-
15/25 badges listed there are active. They are all retroactive except the posts-per-day ones which you'll have to earn again (that's just how the programming works).
That "blue bull's-eye" is actually the center of the vortex on the Vortex deck's back design.

Lol should've known. Would've been easy if I have the decks with me!!
So is it 100 or 111 posts for badge 7?
-
Sounds interesting. I'll give these a shot. 8)
Hopefully, I wont be too busy... :(
-
Awesome! Thanks for the list. I didn't think they were all active yet. I'm looking forward to trying to earn as many of those as I can :D
-
I've been posting consistently and pretty sure I've posted over 50 times today but I'm not getting the Bronze star. Maybe it's not completely implemented just yet. :S
-
http://aethercards.com/discourse/index.php?action=profile;area=showposts;u=464 Feel free to count and see. :P
-
I did do a count, for everything besides posts in Lolaq. I'm pretty sure I got over 50...:S

Odd.
The only issue I can think of is that the badge is calculated by the forum's time which is PST and it's not meshing with your time zone. I'll ask Peuan what's up with that.
-
I'm in PST as well. Maybe there's a small bug somewhere. Anyhow, I've got the badges now!! Though I'm a little iffy and guilty getting the 100 posts. Nowhere near 100 today :S

Ahh, ok. I understand now.
I am really looking fowarrd to getting some of these!
-
ill admitt... ive been picking one person a day and boosting them so they can get the 10 upfames in 24 hourse because nobody seems to up/down fame anymore.
@loldudex2 it was soooooo funny when you had like -345678 on the V1 forum
-
^^ LOL. You can pick me. jk
Anyways, I'm a proud double-badge owner and getting ready for a third one today!
-
One more question, for the "Official Aether Discussion" badge, does it include the "Feedback + Support" posts?
-
^^ I think they count as two separate things if I am not mistaken.
-
Guess it works the same for Playing Card Plethora and the Sales Thread then.
-
When will all the badges be working?
-
Please remember, everyone - the badges are just sprinkles on the top. The creamy goodness is the Discourse itself, and it's only as good as the contributions everyone makes. :))

exactly! Don't just post for the achievements/badges. Enjoy the posts and the conversation and when you truly earn that badge it will be 10x better!

True True story. Double and triple posting is spamming and flooding and it is really really annoying and really obvious that one is after post count. ^_^
Anyway, I thought 50 posts in a day would be easy but it porved to be hard. since i don't JUST reply because I want to up my counts. ***sigh***. oh well. tis fine. In due time then. Its going to all fall into place together!
I'm really really excited for the other badges to come out.
-
Ohh I see the new badges! Somewhat crowded there though...
-
Yeah, it looks like more went live!! Still getting adjusted to all of them, but they are awesome!! I'm going to have to take a look at what they all are and start working on them!
-
Yeah I see some adjustments being made for the past hour or so. I'm hoping some badges could be replaced with new looks cause they double. And I also liked the Sales badge with the currency sign instead of the diamond. Maybe 200 new topics with a light bulb? (I hope Peuan's reading this, if she's the one working on it).
By the way, @brown_baggs, you've got a lolaq badge with less than 200 posts! (Enjoy it while it lasts... :P)

Everything is functional now. :)
-
Hey guys, I just added some new badges. We had to do a little reordering, which resulted in a resetting of some badges. Don't worry about it though; once you log in and load the page, they should be back.
Contrary to what Alex said above :-X , there are still some which are still not implemented. When they're all done, let me know around tomorrow evening if there are still missing or stolen badges (badges that shouldn't be there).
-
Yay, we got some new ones! I like them a lot! :D Maybe I can get the 25 up/downfames one! :D
-
It looks great!
Mine shows that I haven't been on for 10 days but I have 20 days...
-
The 100 posts in a day badges should actually be 100 posts in 24 hours. Just saying.
-
The badges are a nice touch to the forum, creates a little bit of a game within all of the knowledge that is gained from reading and posing in the Discourse. Some of the badges are miles out of my reach, being super busy most of the time with school and other life stuff, but i'll keep truckin away and hopefully pick one some here and there. :D
-

Why? 1 day is 24 hours...
-
I think he's referring to an actual 24-hours count regardless of time of the day, or from 12:00am to 12:00pm.
-
Well I thought he meant from 12 PM to 12 PM as in a day, not 24 hours
-
Mine shows that I haven't been on for 10 days but I have 20 days...
Same here, I'm thinking that one may not be fully implemented yet.
-
He's calculating a day in one of three possible ways:
1) Any twenty-four hour period.
2) 12:00 midnight to 12:00 midnight in your time zone.
3) 12:00 midnight to 12:00 midnight in HIS time zone: US Pacific Standard Time.
I think 2) is the likeliest.
So, Alex - would you kindly clear this on up for us?
-
Some of mine aren't working. A few of them are:
online for 10 days
beta tester
win a contest
There are more too

I know it's not #2 or #3 because I got that badge by posting 100 and 50 times in 24hours, between 9PM and 9PM or the following day.
-
Well then I guess it's #1 then. Though I don't think all the badges follow the same rule..
-
Or maybe it could be 24 hours from when you first log in for the day?
-
I just realized some of us got the "reach 250 fame" badge. I'm nowhere close, but...
Bug?
-

Bug?
Yes, bug. Has to be; no one's fame got that high. Peuan did confirm that no one is supposed to have fame in the negative numbers, too!
-
Yeah I read that from another thread. But I don't get it, how would some people have it but others don't? Maybe those who got it once reached 250 and got downfamed to where they are now? o.O....
-
Yea, I just saw that I got the "reach 250 fame" badge but my fame is like 116

The fact that I scored one while my fame was negative-sixty was a dead giveaway that it's a glitch... :))

Alex mentioned previously that we would have negative fame in the new system. I think it was in his daily update on V2 or it might have been somewhere else but I do remember it. I'm not sure what you're referring to. Maybe it's changed but I think that negative fame is suppose to be there so that people who spam can't just hit rock bottom haha
-
Actually Don's right, Peuan did mention it in another thread.

Perhaps at some point Alex changed his mind. If someone's that unpopular, maybe he just locks down their account or something. You start with a small amount of fame practically for signing up, so if some n00b decides to be a troll, he'll lose what little fame he has quickly. But one way or the other, it looks like negative fame is not a feature, it's a bug.
I think a good person to ask about this would be Alex and/or Peuan.

Okay well you were talking about this in two forums and I posted the link to what Alex said in the other forum, so you can go read that. Also we all know that Alex doesn't lock down lightly, or that seems to be the case.
Remember the fame is in beta still so I wouldn't be surprised if it's all ready to go by launch and negative fame is still there but within reason.
-

I doubt it's gonna stay at all. Some people have been trolling and randomly upfaming/downfaming others without any reference to the contents. I think it's fair for everyone's fame to be reset.

Of course it's fair - we're testing the beta for bugs! Alex wants us to abuse the system while it's being tested so he can evaluate how it's working. He's already caught a few errors in the system which I'm sure are being corrected if they haven't already been.
-
I just saw this today.
I have really few badges. Gotta work on that.
It sounds fun.
-
I have like 2 or 3 right now but I find the badges thing pretty cool and it adds more... fun to posting.
-
Are the badges glitching out? On my account everyone has every badge, anyone else have this problem?
-

I'm not having this problem but some people have badges they shouldn't have. For example some people with 100 fame have the 250+ fame badge....

that is probably because at one point they had over 250 fame. ::)

I haven't seen anyone with over 250 fame... yet, I have the badge for it too.

Baggs is the only one who has or has ever had more than 250 fame. And the badge isn't for if they get 250+ at one point. It's for if they have it currently.
-
So the badge can be taken away? Some people could have reached 250 fame while offline and not noticed.
-
@Nathan,
How did you know the badge was for if they have it currently? I don't think anyone's mentioned it anywhere else before.
-

No, as long as you've reached 250 fame at any point in time, you'll keep the badge. This is important since you can spend your fame in the shop, so it can go down.
