    We (XPG) are full of fun accomplishable badges all around. Do I feel that we have enough that cover all subjects? Well no, the world continues to grow along with ideas and new concepts. I feel an area we tend to lack in is the Gaming Forums. Of course theres a few people like (myself) who wish to moderate them and make them more active but, a sole person can't necessarily make them active. So I got to thinking... My thoughts started to turn over to badges ideas and this is what I came up with:... ​
    Badge Gaming Ideas
    Game Sharer- Be a trusted or well known game sharer on the community where people can trustedly go to have immediately a good share.​
    XPG Gamer- These people are known for posting in gaming forums from tuts to news etc.. They also hold events for XPG gamers. Such as following behind the idea of XPG Champion but less of a big ordeal and just a small thing they do.​
    XPG Crew- This would be a badge for people that are in any of the XPG's clans that we have. From the GTA V clan to the AW clan. These clans must be made and managed by admins that is an Official XPG Clan. You must be active within the clan and events they do on any game. If a certain game gets old and XPG ends their clan on that game then the badge is removed for people in that clan. I would assume just to make it easier for the admins, your only allowed to be in one clan at a time for a certain amount of time so your not just joining their clans to have the badge.​
    **Each of these ideas can obviously be improved and better explained in other ways. I understand that not everyone may like these ideas but, don't post just saying you don't like a certain badge. Please post what you think would be a good badge or why you may not like one of these and what could be improved with them, if anything.**

    Nice idea's nasyr not bad at all these might be added overtime since they are very well-done and thought out I think these should be badges. Good luck.

    Personally, I have always been against the trusted seller and those types of badges. Because all it does is give a user a badge that shows he has completed transactions successfully, and thus making him a "trusted" seller on the site, but at anytime that user could snap and change, and scam people. Thus, making it look bad on us as a staff because we gave him that "trusted seller" badge, which entitles most people to assume he is trustworthy and then they get scammed and thus making them point fingers at us. So I would say no to the Game Sharer badge.

    I do find the XPG Crew a good idea, I mean we have a XPG KV Team, and a couple other teams badges, so that would make sense to do that one to tie in with the trend we have currently going on.

    I know its down to the Founder/Admins to approve this.

    Game Sharer - Could be added to the minimum requirement for the Trusted Seller Badge so thats covered there as you would need to be trusted..

    XPG Gamer - Most of what you put could come under as Content Sharer Badge, Events like hosting lobbies etc would come under XPG Host Badge.

    XPG Crew - This would be so hard to manage and Admins simply wouldn't have the time to manage it plus with all the different timezones it would be a mess.

    Thats just my opinion, however some great Ideas ;)

    I get it that the badges follow a little after the others but, I did that on purpose. I don't want to get too detailed and over thought with badges because if I'm doing that then really what interest would other people have on them, if you think about it. You want something simplistic as everyone likes something that follows the concept already on the site. Not is this always true but, mainly it is. These badges can clearly be more extended into more requirements and explanations for what there for but, that could go on for days. As for your opinions on the XPG Gamer and Crew I think are a little mislead. The XPG Gamer badge is like the XPG Champion and a tutor badge (which we don't have) combined. Also for people who post a lot of tuts and etc.. Say a new game is coming out and he/she wants to host a game night then they could do that. As for the Crew badge that's why I already started to add in little requirements for them. Like only allowing people lets say... They can only be in ONE XPG Clan at a time. Also if a clan is to end on a certain game like I said above the badge is to be removed from people profiles. Or it can be kept there not too sure what you guys want. And the only way it would be super hard for admins to manage would be if you make a lot of clans on other games. So I think a admin knows his limit and would end a clan on an old game and make one in a new game for people to join. It really can be math mathematically figured if anything. Plus I feel instead adding more and more under already made badges, this would help spark activity into sections. Also sharing isn't conducting sales necessarily so I don't believe merge this with that badge would make much sense. I feel this badge would just be another step in the right direction for activity again and reducing scamming.

    Love the feedback guys. I'm not diregarding your thoughts simply trying to explain more of what these mean then repeat badges.

    How about a Call of Duty badge for all those Call of Duty fans and players. This badge is awarded to the hardcore Call of Duty gamer's. {all Call of Duty games; like Black ops 3, Advanced Warfare(AW)} This would probably also be for the Call of Duty clans out their.
