No XP/Laughs?

Also not keen on being described as a ‘registered user’. Makes me sound like I’m on a methadone program.

Change it then!

 

[gideonpepys]

Well if I knew I could do that, or how to do it, I may very well have done. (Besides, I was only kidding, not that bothered really.)

Hmmm...the loss of the old titles and XP bugs me more than it should. I can't help it. It is baked into my gamer bones. Also, I liked the flavor of the old titles. "Explorer"? Bah!

 

[MNblockhead]

Ah, okay, I can just re-roll myself as a very high-level character on this new system. How modern.

The default likes are Facebook-like, but since they're easy to edit, I'd suggest a few things based on what are provided on other XenForo sites that I use:

New types:
Insightful (often relevant in debates and discussions)
Informative (often relevant in debates and discussions)
Hugs (supplement or replace Sad)

Changes (name only):
Funny (instead of Haha) (primarily a personal preference)

You know, before I post any more comments about the perfidy of Paladins there's something I wanted to say.

Having read the threads about the evilness of gnomes and the awesomeness of Katana over the years, and I've spoken to many of you, and some of you have commented ... y'know... thousands of times here on enworld, I'd just like to say... GET A LIFE, will you people?

I mean, for crying out loud, it's just an Internet forum about dragons and stuff!

I mean, look at you, look at your avatar! You've turned an enjoyable little hobby, spouting some nonsense on these here intertubez that I have done as a lark for a little while, into a COLOSSAL WASTE OF TIME!

I mean, how old are we? What have you done with yourselves?

There's a whole world out there! Back in the day, I didn't put my comments on trucks heading down the inter tube highway! I didn't even have a puter! I DIDN'T TALK ABOUT PLAYING, I PLAYED!

So... move out of your basements! Stop tappity tappity tapping on your keyboards. And get your own games and GROW THE HELL UP! I mean, it's just a message board dammit, IT'S JUST RANTINGS INTO THE ETHER!

Very Shatneresque. Kudos!

 

[Dannyalcatraz]

I mourn my lost XP and title/nickname, too...but who knows? Perhaps better things will follow.

Hmmm...could I be a “Moderataur?”

Let me add my votes for tweaking the like options, to avoid any expression that can be abused to taunt or mock the poster whose post you're supposedly liking.

Uniformly positive choices only sounds great.

Yeah, the old “laughed at” was used as a bit of a cudgel until Morrus changed it to “laughed with”. That softened the impact a good deal.

Whatever happened to that guy who laughed at everything?

I hear you, it's like if I've been level drained. I used to be on the top lists. Now I have four laughs received.

Silly gamification, must have failed a WIS save.

How'd you manage that?

 

[CapnZapp]

Think he's talking about how the new system lets you set your own title.

The joke is, you can now instantly level up since you can choose the title that previously was associated with a thousand posts or xp...

Anyway

Hey Moderataur- y'all every going to restore the lost XP from 2015 on? Or was that the price of progress?

Sorry, that requires the "Greatest Restoration" spell, which isn't on our spell list.

 

[Dannyalcatraz]

Sadly, I’m the teensiest Moderataur of all, so I’m not the one to petition.

But such power may even be beyond the abilities of the Admirabull, Morrus.

 

[Flexor the Mighty!]

In the end losing XP is fine since I was able to proclaim my 18/00 strength score again.

Each new XP is worth 1000 old XP. So everybody has a substantial bonus. Your 111 points are worth 111,000XP in the old system! So really everybody owes me a crapload of XP.
