OMG! AN EMBLEM!!!1!11! THANKS PC!11!!1 ::::3
 
Do you care about receiving emblems? Does it annoy you or you're excited about it?

Tbh, i do like receiving emblems but not like I go craycray or anything...

Opinions guys!

Starry Windy March 27th, 2013 2:07 AM

I like it if I'm receiving the good emblems.

Hikamaru March 27th, 2013 2:40 AM

I love collecting emblems, because it's always fun when a staff member gives you one for unexpected stuff, I mean emblems are like little achievements and it's always fun achieving something on PC. Not to mention they are often awarded for participating in competitions and events on PC as well!

Synerjee March 27th, 2013 3:43 AM

Oh YES, I really LOVE receiving emblems! xD I think it's a really neat way to be rewarded for accomplishments on PC and for being the best member you could possibly be. It's really a great feeling and a surprise to see that PM notification pop up on your screen signifying a shiny new emblem. It makes me know that I have contributed my part to this place and it also serves as a milestone to see how far I've gone and where I've been. I wish to receive all sorts of emblems in the future, I really do!
Dear mods, do remember me if I qualify for any, yea~? xD xD

Seki March 27th, 2013 3:43 AM

Of course I love emblems, it shows how active you're in PC in my opinion. But I rarely get them anyway, I only get emblems for participating in events, not those special emblems that the mods think that you deserve them.

But I guess I will get them, someday...

Melody March 27th, 2013 4:23 AM

I enjoy any well intended or clever emblem for positive achievements. I don't however, expect to receive any on a day-to-day basis, and I'm not going out of my way to get one.

I just play my part in PC and if I get one, it's a nice bonus. But it doesn't matter in the long run if I don't get one.

I will embark on various events and activities for an emblem yes, but that's only for fun. Even when embarking on those things, I don't always expect an emblem...so getting one is nice. Do I endeavor to get emblems? No. Do I like getting them? Yes, of course, but I don't expect them unless someone thinks I deserve it.

Captain Gizmo March 27th, 2013 4:36 AM

I love emblems!~♥

I'm an emblem chaser! If there's an emblem I know I can get, I'll go for it for sure ;P
It gives some nice touch to your profile when you go to your emblem list and seeing a good number of emblem in there :D

Kikaito plush March 27th, 2013 6:02 AM

I do like the Emblems even though I do not get many of them. If People get them I try not to get jealous of them. If I get one then cool with me.

Honest March 27th, 2013 6:09 AM

I like them, but I'm not obsessed over them. Not now anyway, I totally was about a year or two ago.

Captain Fabio March 27th, 2013 6:29 AM

I use to enjoy getting them, but I don't mind them now, as I can dish them out the excitement has gone! :(


Aquacorde March 27th, 2013 6:46 AM

Ah I like emblems! I don't ever try to get them, so it's a nice surprise when someone thinks I should have a particular one and gives it to me. And it's also fun because it kinda shows what those staff members were thinking about me. Which is weird because I just don't expect people to think about me at all? idk. Anyway emblems are pretty cool.

Ho-Oh March 27th, 2013 6:49 AM

I don't really care anymore. I have the most emblems, and like when I got the highest post count I just... lost interest lmao :x The last time I really cared was probably January 2011 because I felt I deserved two emblems then I got them so I was like WOO.

Nick March 27th, 2013 6:50 AM

No. I'm indifferent to them.

Sammi March 27th, 2013 7:36 AM

Meh. If people want to give me emblems, that's cool. Otherwise I usually don't give them out (PotW being exception), and I don't add any to my profile, even though I could. 8)

Legobricks March 27th, 2013 8:17 AM

I've had any I've gotten removed; I just dislike them.

Shiny Celebi March 27th, 2013 9:35 AM

I think it's nice and Ive received a few but i dont go out of my way to get Emblems,I think they're a nice feature here but I dont collect them or anything.

Sweets Witch March 27th, 2013 2:09 PM

I had that one emblem for being paired for a really long time on one of my old accounts, but I didn't even notice. If I were to get one then it'd be cool for a moment but it's not like I could rub it in somebody's face or anything.

Munchlax11 March 27th, 2013 2:13 PM

I wish I could get an emblem. I don't have any, but I wish I could get a few. I don't really care all that much though.

droomph March 27th, 2013 3:03 PM

It's awesome to get one, because YAY SOMEONE HERE APPRECIATES MY PRESENCE ASDJFKLAS;DJKFAS;LDKFJL;ASKDF but I don't go scouting for one.

Crux March 27th, 2013 3:12 PM

Meh, i'm on the fence in manner that I don't love, nor hate them.

Kura March 27th, 2013 3:22 PM

Yeah they're great fun, but I don't make a super big deal out of them. I like the surprise if I get one randomly though! It's nice!

Thursday March 27th, 2013 4:56 PM

I don't have any so I don't know how to feel about them XD

Somniac March 27th, 2013 5:13 PM

Personally I think they're just a nice little way of getting some recognition for certain actions. Although I obviously wouldn't let them effect my judgment or opinion of other users.

vaporeon7 March 27th, 2013 5:16 PM

I used to, and as a result, I have over 100.
xD

Treecko March 27th, 2013 5:25 PM

I love emblems. While I don't obsessively go all out to get them, it's nice getting awarded for doing something and getting an achievement. Plus sometimes some of the emblems I get are a big surprise to me and that surprise can be exciting.

Fairy March 27th, 2013 5:29 PM

I'm fond of the idea of emblems, but only when it comes to giving them -- not so much receiving. I think they're cute and a great way for us to show that we appreciate and recognize our members. But I wouldn't go out of my way to get any for myself, you know? That doesn't make me any less grateful for the ones I already have though! <3;

♣Gawain♣ March 27th, 2013 11:25 PM

They're good, but should be boasting about it. Just share them if needed to.

Firox March 27th, 2013 11:38 PM

I don't mind getting any, so far only have one.

Ace. March 28th, 2013 12:20 AM

I like getting emblems :3 But I only have 2 lololol

Satoshi Ookami March 28th, 2013 12:44 AM

I never really cared about Emblems 'till I got my first one and it was totally outta nowhere :D
And from that moment, I try to collect emblems I can get :)

Brendino March 29th, 2013 10:33 PM

My opinion of emblems kind of fluctuates. There'll be times (like during some community events) where I'll go out of my way to try and get an emblem, but other times, it doesn't really matter to me either way if I have them. I'm kind of at that "meh" stage right now, but it's always nice to see when a new emblem does appear on your profile.

Demon Days March 30th, 2013 2:02 AM

I wish I got one on my previous account that I had for two years.
So, I'd love it if I got any emblems hint hint guys, please

curiousnathan March 30th, 2013 2:19 AM

I used to love getting emblems; I don't know for what reason, but I've lost my interest and excitement for them. :[

Sheep March 30th, 2013 6:54 PM

I don't pay much attention to emblems. Sometimes I even forget they exist to be honest, but they're a neat little feature and it's always fun to get them! :3

PlatinumDude March 31st, 2013 6:17 AM

I don't get emblems often, but I get excited when I do get one.

Meganium April 2nd, 2013 7:21 PM

Emblems, to me, are like gaming achievements. I don't really care for them, but when I do get one, I smile on the inside, and I (sometimes) properly thank the staff member who gave me the emblem.

Sydian April 2nd, 2013 7:27 PM

I'm with Megan on this one. They're kind of like achievements, which is nice. Or just little reminders of things you've done in the past, like events or silly nubby things like asking to be a mod.

Yukiyo Kayume April 3rd, 2013 3:10 PM

I don't really know what emblems are, but it sounds like they are some sort of recognition for members? that's cool, I think it's nice to notice/congratulate people who are exceptional members c:

Seth Rollins April 3rd, 2013 4:17 PM

I LUV EMBLEMS AND WILL ALWAYS LUV THEM, EITHER IS A BADMOR GOOD EMBLEM. (Except for some, lol.)

This.

I love emblems and I love giving them out to deserving members! I also love to get them, but I don't get them very often. xD

Musica April 3rd, 2013 5:44 PM

I'm not sure how you guys would feel, I haven't gotten one yet. :P It might be great to get one, but I'm fine without one, too. :D I think emblems are cool anyway.

Cherrim April 3rd, 2013 9:39 PM

I won't notice I've gotten an emblem unless I get a PM/email about it and even when I do, I don't usually check it with excitement, haha. I think the business of uploading hundreds of emblems (it is not a user-friendly system when you need to do it in bulk) kind of killed them for me, so even if I never have to deal with that again, I still shudder a bit thinking about them. :( I don't go out of my way to get them.

Austin April 4th, 2013 8:03 PM

I love the idea of emblems, and I would probably be boasting about mine if I had more than 1, lol.
They make me feel accomplished and recognized, which is always a nice feeling.

Caelus April 4th, 2013 10:10 PM

Not really. Most of my emblems are pretty generic and I don't really care enough to get them. If I did care I would have had that asked to be a mod emblem and format genius emblem by now, but don't care enough to make that kind of effort.

Foxrally April 4th, 2013 10:43 PM

I have no idea what emblems are. Nor do I plan on finding out. I'll just ask for them so I can get a fake sense of satisfaction deep in myself.

Gligar April 5th, 2013 2:13 AM

I never knew there were emblems in PC '-'
Now I know! ^-^

Mr Cat Dog April 7th, 2013 7:02 AM

Apart from one emblem that I received last month, i haven't received any since July of last year. It's not something I'm all beat up over, but I certainly wouldn't say no to receiving one now. That being said, I should probably give out my own ego emblem on a more regular basis. The last time I gave it out was in October of last year! Might go on a little emblem-giving rampage! :D

Shining Raichu April 9th, 2013 3:27 AM

Speaking from a staff point of view, if you don't get emblems don't be discouraged, we tend to forget to hand them out quite a bit lol

I used to be real excited about emblems. I remember the first one I earned was "A Gem Amongst Granite" which is an emblem for new members who stand out and are awesome etc. I was trying really hard when I first joined to make it seem like I'd been here the whole time because I hated the idea of being a newbie, so it really meant a lot to me and made me feel really good. The beautiful and wonderful NU/W mod Hiidoran gave it to me, may his staff career rest in peace...

Then when I became a staff member I remember looking at the emblem list and I handed a few of those A Gem Amongst Granite emblems out... it was a really cool full-circle moment for me!

Squirrel April 9th, 2013 5:03 AM

There's a few emblems like Andy said which mean a lot when you receive them, A Gem Amongst Granite or staff 'ego emblems' for example, and some which are fun to strive for like the pairing emblem Committed, but largely I don't find emblems to be anything special. With the amount of emblems that get spammed after every Get Together or event it's a wonder that most people aren't already in triple figures XD

Hannah April 9th, 2013 5:10 AM

I absolutely loooove emblems. The first one I got was the Gem Against the Granite thingy or whatever, and since then, I've tried my best to get more. That wonderful, blissful feeling when you open your account and there's a PM from one of the mods that says you got an emblem and you're like omgggg omg omg omg can't breathe

Elaitenstile April 9th, 2013 5:29 AM

When I see one emblem, I'm like : OMGSIOFHASJIFOGJPDJVPSDJIOVSPDJOVSPDOJSPJO!!!!!! XD

I want emblems like hell! Especially because I love seeing emblems I really dunno why maybe bcuz of that jealousy thing xD

So I love emblems, like that but I only hav 2 XDXDXDXD

Which is why I badly want that "Color Coordinated" thing, it's just too cool! xD

Yeah, they are the best thing in this site xD

Pinkie-Dawn April 15th, 2013 5:26 PM

I recently earned my first emblem today, so now I'm willing to get more in the future, because emblems are like achievements, you get addicted to trying to earn as many as possible, or else you become gloomy about it. If only there was a guide that shows how you get them.

This. Most of my emblems were effortless / acquired with time i.e. Committed, Veteran, 2010 New Year Celebration.

I got one today from Aerilyn for participating in the X&Y PokeCreation event, but I knew I was going to get one for that... which is admittedly why I participated.

I've never gotten one just out there. It's always been earned in a systematic way. I'm hoping to get just a random "gift" emblem at some point.

Her April 20th, 2013 2:04 AM

Truth be told, the only emblems I truly have any joy in are my *coughs* nine Drama Queen emblems.
