Award - Surprise me - Inori - 04-23-2016
An award given to anyone that does something outstanding in the community, like getting 50+ rep in a week, having a thread get 50k+ views, etc. It's not exactly practical, but it adds more than just bragging rights to achievements like that.

The 50k view posts are usually 2013 posts with dead proxies, maybe if likes were used more we could have a "___ likes received" award. That could tie in with Loved / Hated awards.
Maybe. If I saw it used more, I'd be able to come up with a realistic (yet high) number for the amount of likes required. Still waiting to roll out the Australian award, as I wanted to bundle a few other ones with it.

This bundle sounds interesting. We could look at some of the top poster likes received etc and work out averages. I think that would give you a more realistic idea of what the award would be for in regards to likes.

Unless the award Is Inconspicuous to some degree, I've yet to see It. I certainly haven't personally experienced It. Is this supposed to be given upon receipt of 100 reps?
On topic here, I like the suggestion. I believe the Award will act as an Incentive for members to strive In achieving a given goal.

I actually didn't know about it either. I've been over 100 rep twice (including before the last rep reset). Never seen it. Not that I need another award.

With yourself, you haven't received It because there's no space on your profile to place It. You have enough already (joking).
On a serious note, we'll see what @Oni or other staff members have to say about this.

You're bloody well correct though xD As I've said before, I do look like this little guy:

As a staff member I'll go talk to the others about it.

Okay then.
I was under the Impression that the moment 100 reps are achieved, the Award Is given. Not that I care too much for Awards, but given I don't have It, It may well be a selective process.

You just need to PM Oni about awards. You'll probably get it within 24 hours

Thank you for your replies.
Personally, I'm not concerned about the Award. I just wanted clarification as to how It's received once 100 reps has been achieved.
Thanks again.
