Site Upgrades: New Site Awards & Profile Redesign

[Joshua Dorkin]

New Award System Launches:
Earlier today we implemented our new award system designed to stimulate even more activity from our members. With awards to reward the top participants in all areas of the site, those who help keep the site running smoothly, and more, we hope that our members will get their competitive spirit going and participate even more here on BiggerPockets.

Those members who have earned an award will see it on their profile in the awards section, and will also have a tally of the total number of awards next to their forum posts.

You can see all of the awards, what they mean, and how many have been given away on our Awards page

Profile Updates:
In addition to adding awards to member profiles, we've also redesigned the profiles to make them cleaner and a little more spacious. We hope you like the changes!

NOTE: We have other awards that we will be adding to the list and welcome your suggestions. Additionally, please note that by tomorrow, the award tally will be adjusted to be retroactive for all member activity. Some of you may think you deserve an award, and we should have those distributed then.

Profile Problems or other Issues?
Please do let us know if you see any problems with yours or other profiles, or if you see anything wrong elsewhere on the site. We don't anticipate having any, but if they arise, let us know so we can get them fixed ASAP.

Let us know your thoughts below!
