Post badge ideas here!

[sothis]

-Anything site-based (ie, made x recs, made x reviews)

-Anything clever and site-based (be creative!). For example, left x comments on someone's birthday, left someone a comment on their first day, added a review on a sunday (no idea why this would be a badge but to give you an idea of how wacky it could be)

-Anything list-related, the sky's the limit here. IE, marked x characters loved. Marked 5 naruto titles as [status]. Rated x titles as [score]. Watched 3 of the 'big 5' shounen titles (one piece, naruto, whatever). 'Trendy' - watched [a set of really overhyped series here].

or anything else you can think of!

[chii]

- made [whatever number] friends
- watched [whatever number] of gundam series (same can go for any other series that has over lets say 10 different titles)
- watching 5 current airing series: 10, 20, 30
- Never dropped/stalled an anime
- really big won't watch lists / want to watch say 200+ or something
- have over 20 of animals in their favourites list
- have 50 favourite anime: 100, 500
- loves [whatever tag] for characters. must have over 20 in favourites
- comments on blogs 10+
- comments on anime/manga user reviews 20+
- comments on official site reviews 10+
- ratings obsessed. constantly changing their scores around at least once every 3 days or something
- any fun tags that aren't genres like pirate, ninja, samurai, Monsters, aliens. watched over 20 titles with these tags
- set 10 anime as watched in one day (maybe not though since new members would be doing that) perhaps after a month of joining the site this could be eligible.
- when leaving a comment uses something other than the "Konnichiwa!" tag. 20 times for all and get a badge for each one.

I'll so have more ideas later XD

Here's one for you both:
- Trash lover: Watched [X] anime with a mean rating lower than 2.0 stars.

Hopefully I get the idea. :P

[sothis]

these are great!

one thing to consider is that badges like 'watching [x] currently airing' and things with avg ratings etc, is that those are subject to change outside of the user's control. ie, it would be weird if they unlock the badge, but then maybe the avg rating of one of those series changes, and suddenly they lose the badge. they log on, and see they lost something and think wtf?

for this reason im trying to keep badges, at least for now, to things that *wont* change. for example, watched 5 naruto titles, instead of 'watched all naruto titles' - given if another is added later, now that one doesnt apply anymore. with things like a person's own ratings, they're the only one who changes those so it's easier.

though i just realized a really good point regarding comments, ie what happens when someone deletes a comment? does the person lose the badge too? will follow up wiht dev on that

-Got here by accident when looking for Animal Planet
Don't know how we'd implement that but there ya go.

How bout badges for genres like "Psycho fan" for psychological or "Knight Watchman" for adventure or something. Family time for those who watch a lot of anime that have the tage "incest" or something....

You could do Animal-Planet for those who watched X shows with the animal tag listed.

Hard to Please (or something like that) could also be a good badge for having more than a certain number of dropped anime.

Character Arbiter - Has posted [x] amount of times in the "Character Submissions Help Needed Forum"

(An arbiter has no real authority but his/her opinion is valued)

Character Suggester - Has submitted [x] amount of characters to be used in the database or posted [x] amount of times in the Character Submissions Forum.

Character Crazy - Has posed [x] (a large amount) of times in the Character Submission Form

Show some love for those of us who aren't character mods but still like to occasionally help out in the Character Submission Forum anyways =)

EDIT: Just realized you said Badges for site and not Forum so you can disregard all of that >_<
Except maybe Character Submission since that is done through the main site
