Just use smilies in anything, but you must use them like you mean it, and when you use them you muse mean it.....
Woah, woah, woah; that's slightly misleading. If you don't use smilies a lot, you shouldn't just start to earn the emblem. Saying 'use smilies in anything' is implying that you should and we discourage that. As me and numerous other staff members have said: emblems are a form of prize for normal behaviour, you shouldn't change your posting habits just to get one. D:

Exactly. Fran is right.

Starting something just to get an emblem is really messed up. Emblems are a sign of your personality, what you're actually like. After you get the emblem, chances are you'll stop because you got your emblem. Having emblems aren't really that special. You'll live without them; just be yourself.

I know, I was sounding a bit crazy, seriously I did not change my ways to get an emblem I just got it, was a bit offended at first, but then I got used to it..... :D

No, I didn't mean you had changed. I just meant that what you'd said implied that people should change how they post naturally in order to gain emblems. I apologise if you felt I was talking about you. :>

Seeing as how you've been awarded the emblem, I think we pretty much assumed that... :[

It's okay, I knew you weren't talking about me, I still abuse the hell out of the smiley's (believe me they've filed harassment sues against me xD). :D

Well, Franceschi, out of curiosity, what Emblems can you give seeing you have the game section?

I'd hardly call posting XD in just a handfew of very recent posts meeting the criteria to get an emblem like that, which is really hard to determine because in most cases, staff will probably look at all of your posts you made and compare them every few pages to see that it's been a habit and not something you recently started just to get an emblem.

Besides, that's not requestable anyway.. so...
Yeah, i know its not. But i thought this was the Official Emblem Discussion Thread, where besides requesting those three, you could also DISCUSS emblems. Like ones you wanted and stuff.

Lightning Said:
This thread is a way to speculate and discuss how to get some emblems.

I'm able to give out the 'Sucker for Games' emblem, which regulars of Other and Pokémon Trivia have - look at my or Went's profile and you'll see it.

Yes, that is the idea of the thread. But the nature of your post seemed to be you requesting/asking for that particular emblem; which, as Abercrombie stated correctly and you've acknowledged, you cannot request. You're free to discuss and speculate emblems, but saying things like "I should have _____ emblem" just comes across as you asking for it.

HA. I BEAT YOU ALL. >:D

Lightning Said:
I'm well aware of what she said. And in no way did I say that discussion wasn't involved. But going around saying you put XD in all of your posts, and then saying that in the thread warrants at least one person to direct a reply towards you in those regards.

Plus, it's very annoying when someone says they deserve something and they don't. It's nice to put them in their place when necessary.

Lightning Said:
Yes I am sure you can discuss emblems. The only thing you can't do is ask for emblems unless they are requestable, sorry.

Okay.. Thanks hehe... Is it very hard to add new emblems? Because if its no hassle maybe someone could make the Emblem suggestion thread I mean I know I have plenty of good Ideas for them
I am not really sure if you could make a emblem suggestion thread.

I think you can post your ideas for new emblems in this discussion thread.

In most cases, if someone on staff thinks that their is a good idea that a member thought of for an emblem, it will be suggested in a designated thread in the M&A Lounge. Then, that suggestion will be discussed in the Headquarters by the higher staff. If it's approved, they'll post that it's been approved and it will be uploaded and added to the list of emblems. If it's been declined, chances are they'll find a way to contact the person who posted in the thread suggesting it. It usually takes a while, though, for emblems to be approved and everything. But it doesn't hurt to post your ideas somewhere. I'm sure someone on staff will find it eventually. In the past, people have posted ideas here.

Well when the staff sees you using it, and think you are ready for it, you'll get it. All you have to do is be patient.

How did members get the "2009" award?
People get the 2009 emblem when they were on PC during New Year's Day and had posted in the New Year's thread they had.

The New Year's thread.

I blame an administrater for not putting it as an accouncement. I didn't get my emblem that way. :(
I got my emblem from the New Year's announcement thread. I believe the thread was in the Announcements section.

Well it could be a possibility. It's all up to the staff though.

I believe that particular emblem may become a permanent fixture to the emblem list; however, I wouldn't be too sure as I believe it was also meant as a nice surprise for members. :>
