Badges............We don't need no stinking Badges..

While this may be true, the software comes with it's own set of Badges and Points system so they're here to stay and for the most part they are awarded automatically by the forum's software based on each person's actions eg posting a comment, adding a picture, signing in and so on

You can see who is the week's leader by going here: http://vintagemoviepostersforum.com/activity (well done Paul, you are kicking ass this week).

Here's a list of all the badges on offer, with a brief description of what they are earned for as we said they most are awarded automatically by the system's software.

Click on the Badge Title to see which of your fellow members have earned the right to sew this badge on their forum uniform.

imageFacebook Connector Let's get social! 5
imageFoundation Member Joined up in the first few weeks when this all started, we're not quite sure why they've stayed around, probably because we promised them pizza... 32
imageKiwi-Kollector Hailing from the Aotearoa (The Land of the Long White Cloud) this member has been awarded the sacred Kiwi Kollector badge... 3
imageName Dropper Mentioning someone in a discussion (like this: @Name) is a great way to encourage dialog and let them know who you’re talking to. 5
imagePhotogenic Little things like uploading a profile picture make the community a better place. Thanks! 94
imagePizza & Beer Multi Invite Badge Because you continue to go above and beyond the call of duty, getting even MORE people to join the forum on the promise of pizza and beer. We owe you one. 3
imagePizza Badge Awarded because you invited someone to join the forum and they did(!) and then said it was your fault they joined! You probably offered them pizza and beer which is OK by us, after all that's how we got you to join. 3
imageSergeant Linenback If it moves salute it, if it doesn't - linenback it! Awarded to the collector who can claim over 50 linenbacked posters in his personal collection, we thank you. 2
imageThread Starter A great way to start conversions and get people talking 3
imageTwitter Connector Let's get social! 4
imageUp Yours Awarded because you don't take any sh*t and will stick it to 'the man' any time you want. It might be because you're old and grumpy, it might be because you aren't the fake Hollywood type but either way you're the kind of no BS person we like to have hang around these here parts. 

Well done and Up Yours!		 2
imageWinner! “When you win, you don't examine it very much, except to congratulate yourself. You easily, and wrongly, assume it has something to do with your rare qualities as a person. But winning only measures how hard you've worked and how physically talented you are; it doesn't particularly define you beyond those characteristics.

Losing on the other hand, really does say something about who you are. Among other things it measures are: do you blame others, or do you own the loss? Do you analyze your failure, or just complain about bad luck?

If you're willing to examine failure, and to look not just at your outward physical performance, but your internal workings, too, losing can be valuable. How you behave in those moments can perhaps be more self-defining than winning could ever be. Sometimes losing shows you for who you really are.”

Lance Armstrong

So yeah based on all that it is possible you cheated and we want our goddam badge back!.		 0
imageYou're A Loser! We won't beat around the bush, you didn't win, someone else was better than you, waaaay better, the best in fact. 

But really, what does it mean to be the best? It means you have to be better than the number two guy, and what gratification is there in that? He's a loser and that’s why he's number two - and everyone knows now that is you.

It's like winning the 'Employee of the Month award, a great example of how somebody can be both a winner and a loser at the same time.

So don't consider this a loser badge, oh no, think of it as a higher honour, tell everyone you won our VMP Fourm Member of the Month award.

Well done, you Loser!		 0
