    Hi all! We're really excited to announce some new features we have coming to the school over the next week. We're adding in an achievement system, which is a great way to reward you all for all of your successes and an easy way for you guys to track your progress. We're also going to add in a leaderboard system to have some friendly competition between students. We've also already added in custom emojis for Legendary and Supporting members! If you press the emoji button when you're sending out a message you should be able to see them! Let me know if you guys have any questions!

    Just wondering because I thought there already was a bit of a leaderboard system, in what way is it changed and are those stats conserved? I'm not saying I'm competitive but I am competitive 😅
    The "leaderboards" on that page are more just raw calculations of a person's community contributions. With our leaderboard system, you can sort the leaderboard by daily, weekly, or monthly and get alerts when you've gotten a position on a leaderboard. We will be working to find a solution to integrate the 2 systems a bit more. Let me know if that clears everything up!

    I don't understand the little tag things. The things like New Student and Campfire Hero. I click on "select showcase achievements" and I don't get anything. I'm totally out of all of this!
    Dude same ! Mine says “music theory bragger” 🤣🤣🤣
    And the same with the achievements. I think I’ve got like one or two that’s highlighted but some others I know I’ve done so I’m definitely confused on the new stuff. The emojis are cool though ! :rock-hand:

    Hey Jak! Those are user titles, not achievements. You move up in user title as you gain experience points (XP). After the system is fully added to the site, I'll be configuring it to give everyone achievements for all the tasks they've already completed before the system was on the site!
