You may have noticed this morning that we have re-instated the old medal system in regards to postcount.
In case you've forgotten, or if you weren't around when the system was in place, your medal count is directly related to your postcount.
For an explanation of these ranks, take a look at the wiki.

Thank you Costello, tj_cool, Minox, and others for making this change possible.

I for one appreciate the visible e-peen

Could you give it a couple of days before deciding that you dislike the new-old-feature? You might get used to it. Might even like it.

Wonderful.
I knew that forcing my poorly worded opinions into discussions that didn't concern me would pay off one day.
You all laughed at me. Well look at me now, Francis. I have a rank, and all you have is my sense of self respect.

I'm just so happy :cry:

Woohoo I missed them medals :D

Medals are literally the only things besides AskGBATemp which I can remember from the pre-Xenforo days. Damn, my memory is horrible DX

This was something I legitimately missed when they disappeared. I know it's silly, but I still like seeing something that marks how much I've participated in this forum beyond the post count itself.

    @SylverReZ if you could find a v5 DS ML you would have the best of both worlds since the v5 units had the same backlight brightness levels as the DS Lite unlockable with flashme
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but that's a long shot
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    i think only the red mario kart edition phat was v5
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    A woman with no arms and no legs was sitting on a beach. A man comes along and the woman says, "I've never been hugged before." So the man feels bad and hugs her. She says "Well i've also never been kissed before." So he gives her a kiss on the cheek. She says "Well I've also never been fucked before." So the man picks her up, and throws her in the ocean and says "Now you're fucked."

    Agreed, that why I try to buy all my games on disc, Xbox anyways. Switch games (which I pirate tbh) don't matter much, I stay offline 24/7 anyways.

    @BakerMan - you can still "own" digital media, arguably easier and better than physical since you can make copies and backups, as much as you like.

    The issue is DRM
     +1
  • cearp @ cearp:
    You can buy drm free games / music / ebooks, and if you keep backups of your data (like documents and family photos etc), then you shouldn't lose the game. but with a disk, your toddler could put it in the toaster and there goes your $60

    :rofl2:
  • cearp @ cearp:
    still, I agree physical media is nice to have. just pointing out the issue is drm

  • rqkaiju2 @ rqkaiju2:
    i like physical media because it actually feels like you own it. thats why i plan on burning music to cds
  • cearp @ cearp:
    It's nice to not have to have a lot of physical things though, saves space

  • AncientBoi @ AncientBoi:
    Nor clothes 🤮 . Saves on time, soap, water and money having to wash them. :D
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @rqkaiju2, Physical media is a great source for archiving your data, none of that cloud storage shiz.
