That's so cool!! I'll mention it on the BB socials when I'm home later!

That's a pretty cool idea! Could help with user retention and engagement. Were these achievements something BBz already had and this site just integrated them or did the site create them?

Just BB has achievements, but it's not out of the question for MB! The MB userbase is a bit harder to convince about new things ("gamifying" might set off red flags for some) but it hasn't broken anything at BB, so that's a good sign

Bbz and MBz far outstrip MGS in size and scope

Primal was late to the achievement tracking party and far more ambitious than the others

I mean, as long as it's a system that can be able to be ignored, it shouldn't bother existing users and can be a driver of engagement to new users

It'd just be an extra page on your profile, easily ignorable, I'm all for it

as side effect it might help MGS out as well

The worst side effect I could see is a lot of new users making poor quality edits but that'll get better as any new user can become an experienced user in time and gamifying is a great method for seeing up onboarding
