I’d be grateful if someone could explain to me the benefits or rewards of the trophy points gained as a member Have tried searching on line here for an explanation but to no avail I’m sure it’s very straight forward Appreciate your comments Thanks
There are no benefits and there are no rewards It's just a gimmick of sorts, something "fun" that XenForo offers as part of it's forum software A simple google search of "XenForo Trophy" will bring up plenty of links for you to read more about, but this pretty much sums it up "Trophies add a light gamification element to your forum. They allow you to define certain thresholds and criteria for when a user is awarded a trophy and the associated points. The top trophy point earners are then displayed in the notable members list. When defining a trophy, you will specify the number of points it is worth and the criteria that is required to receive it. Once a user meets that criteria, it will be automatically awarded. Note that once awarded, a trophy will not be revoked, even if the user no longer meets the criteria."
Couple of funny threads at least - I particularly liked the concept of "windbag index". https://www.silverstackers.com/forums/index.php?threads/trophy-points-question.84055/ https://www.silverstackers.com/forums/index.php?threads/how-trophy-points-work.84696/ Do the points at some level translate to becoming a "well-known member"?
"The member degree (Active/Well Known etc) is based on the trophies points you have. The post quantity and like received quantity are the two factors that affect the trophies points." New Member: It's the basic rank. Obtained when joining. Member: It requires 5 trophy points. Obtained at 30 messages. Active Member: It requires 20 trophy points. Obtained at 100 messages and 25 likes. Well-Known Member: It requires 45 trophy points. Obtained at 1000 messages or 250 likes.
Thanks somehow I knew you would have the answer and explanation I was wanting very well described thanks again
