How to get my first badge?

[Miami Reef]

I see a lot of members with interesting badges.

Besides for sponsoring :oops: , how can I get my first badge?

:)

A easy one is creating a build thread

Sponsorship as you mentioned will get you the supporting badge. Having a build thread would get you the build thread contributor badge. Other badges are acquired by just being a good, helpful, active, and welcoming member of the forum :)

^^^Ditto

There's actually a thread about what each one means and how to earn it:

Also you can follow the link in my signature below to enter your tank into the reef tank 365 once you create a build thread if you don't already have one

Dang it! I didnt even realize badges were a thang till this thread! Thanks a lot @Miami Reef !!!!! Now i just realized i dont have any and makes we want them ............ ughhh

 

[kschweer]

I believe those are called "Team R2R" ;)

Lol I resemble that remark....

 

[Midrats]

You should call them ribbons because I feel like I should be saluting all you Chesty Pullers.

 

[Fiesty]

I’ll see if rev can make that one up for you haha!!

Id love to have it. But with my luck, id probably just end up loosing it sooner or laters anyway. Haha

Hahahahahahaha...yup that's the one and only.

@Miami Reef you should get a ribbon for this thread alone. :)

I will also add, that if you belong to any local clubs that have a forum on here you can check and see if there is a badge associated with it :) for example you can see that @kschweer has the NJRC member badge and @Js.Aqua.Project has the ocala reef club member badge.

If people who come here for help and only get greeting are what you're going for then well done lol

As others have said, you are entitled your opinion about not enjoying all of the welcome posts. Having said that, your above statement is absolutely misleading. The occasional request for help may be missed on a forum this large, but it's not "because" of the welcoming posts. If anything it would be "despite" the welcomes because it bumps up the threads.

Most quickly realize it's better to ask in a forum other than the Meet and Greet. Those posts usually get a quick welcome and advice in the same answer.

The hospitality one seems easy enough. How many times do I need to welcome people? Is there a zombie badge if I bring back threads from 2009 and say welcome to R2R?

I’m only kidding on the last part...or am I? ;Mask

Probably a fairly high number. I'm always welcoming/helping people and haven't attained it yet. I would not worry about the number and just go be welcoming and have fun.

Start a build thread and you can have a badge in 24 hours. That's going to be your best fast lane option other than the very worthy cause of becoming a site supporter...
