You can see which ones you have earnt on your profile page (click the number next to Trophy points)

And the list of available ones is at
https://bantamtalk.com/index.php?help/trophies

 

If I can find some more to import I might add those later as well. Some people had reached the highest possible points ages ago so by adding some more awards, some more tier levels and also rejigging some points it gives you all some more progress to make

 

Bragging rights

Oh and potentially a better user title than anyone else. Depending on how many points you have you go from

Youngster
Future Prospect
Breakthrough prospect
Emergency backup
Fringe Player
Impact Sub
Regular Starter
Important Player
Star Player
Club Icon
Club Legend

 

Not a massive amount but some people like a certain amount of ‘gamification' when it comes to forum use. If it’s not something for you it’s something that you can just ignore.

It is something however that there is the potential for us to leverage more at a later date

 

We can't read private messages

















Or can we

 

I don't know who "they" is but I can't access your private messages.

 

No. We just imported a bunch of new ones and it just awarded any which you would have already achieved if they had been active previously

 

It needs a modification to allow that which we don't have installed. We perhaps should have it installed as there can be malicious or illegal things that can go on in PM's that from a legal pov we should maybe be policing but unless there are indications such things are going on it shouldn't be needed and if it does become needed we would inform you all anyway first

 

Some new awards been added so its just updating the awards you would have received

 

We added a whole new set of awards. Any which you would have already earned was given in a block

The birthday one is your 'forum birthday' which you get when you have been a member for a year.
