Idea of getting lums for achievements in the forum

Post by Rayrobi »

Hey guys,
An idea occured in my head, that members can earn lums for various achievements on the forum, for example:
- upload your raymam 3 score
- post 1000 comments on the forum
- post 30 good arcticles on RayWiki
- invite your friend to the forum
etc.
these points could maybe used to get a few tings for each lums. if this idea comes. in, then it will be a success for the forums.

Doesn't sound like a great idea to me.

As good as it sounds there'd be many problems with that. Mostly involving spam just to get posts. :P

You already get tings for submitting your R3 score, inviting friends and posting messages.
I suppose you have a point about RayWiki though.

That was just an idea for getting a lum by post 1000 comments. it isn't must be in the list of achievements.
EDIT: these was just examples. if anyone have any other idea about this then let us know. :P

Not sure giving points for editing the wiki is a good way to promote it.

Well yeah, it will cause more harm than good if you simply get awarded for editing it. And it's hard to set a proper personal 'achievement' there given RayWiki's collaborative nature and purpose.

Anyway, wasn't there a similar topic in PC websites forum somewhere?

We already have Tings so I don't see the need for any additional 'currency'. I definitely agree with you about RayWiki rewards though. Perhaps sysops should have the ability to give Tings to users who create praiseworthy articles :)

that's ok, but in an old topic you said that may be a silver lum system in the forum, lums anyway could be more competent than tings IMO, because in most Rayman games the tings doesn't appear. :) :roll: or maybe lums could be awarded for competions in members participating. I have many ideas. :P

There was a similar thread, suggesting 'Premium Membership' for doing...something.

I created that topic.

I think it would be easier to recognize "higher-status" members. Can anyone rip the sprite of the "P" icon?

What would be a higher status member? One who learned to ignore Stan?
