RE: After 3 Amazing Months on Steemit I've Finally Reached My 4000 SP target
Congrats on the achievement, I'm going to soon celebrate my 1000th post on Steemit :)
We really do need some achievement "medals" like in a game for things that you manage to do on Steemit... so that you will not have to track everything yourself to see where you have achieved an important milestone.
Thanks congratulations to you too - great idea:)
I like this idea too. I used to be a moderator for a Minecraft server and loved how the server's forum would reward people with badges and ranks for achieving certain post counts, number of likes, or donation targets. Wish we had something like that here too!
It definitely works from a psychological perspective. Games use it all the time - not just Minecraft - I love RPGs like Fallout and they use it a lot. I played Fallout New Vegas and Fallout 3 multiple times to get as many of the achievements as I could. Fitness devices use similar principles - I've collected so many badges on my Fitbit. It really works well.
Yes, that little "pat on the back, job well done" feeling is quite satisfying. As long as you don't get saturated by it. I completely ignore trophies on my PlayStation as I've just gotten so many of them by now.
Steemit is great but actually a little bland feature-wise compared to other more established social media sites. We don't even have avatar pics. Reddit at least has flair. I'd like to see little badges next to usernames to indicate achievements.

The Achievements from Wow or GuildWars type would be awesome, Achieves shown in Wallet would be great !
