Now that we have the ability to grant badges based on a custom SQL query we can have a lot more custom badges without Ian needing to do a bunch of work to avoid the SQL. This topic on meta has a lot of cool badge queries we can use. Some of my favorites are Top x% poster, Read for x time and liked post by a member of x group (can be used in #bug-reports with mods and/or Replit staff).
There are a lot of others! Share your feedback and if you have any queries please share!
This is excellent work @not-ethan and I think we can go for some obscure but cool criteria e.g.
Good idea. I think the posts should be made with in 5 min so its not too hard. And I will need somebody else to make the SQL since I don’t know a single piece of syntax in SQL.
And if you want me to add any of those to the bot just tell me
What exactly do you mean by this?
2 people that are online on Ask at the same time and also post at the same time
What time frame would be the same time? A minute, 30 secs? Because posting can take a few seconds.
I agree I suggested a 5 min cool down before
Five minutes sounds like a whole to be honest, I dunno though.
I could always be runing multiple queries and logging the data for each and decide from there
I don’t get it, what do you mean overall response?
Sounds great, I’d say maybe a bug hunter badge!
For the entire site e.g. the person who replies to the only remaining unanswered topic gets a badge.
I’m just trying to think of obscure but interesting challenges for writing the database queries. These aren’t definite badges, just musings!
Thats impossible. There are already so many unanswered topics so this would never be awarded.
I like it. I suggested it in the OP
Will these badges get implemented now? A lot has changed, so I dunno… it sounds like a great idea, but the Staff may be too busy to implement it.
