Roles - Unknown what Roles are available and also if they also award points on achieving, confirmation needed.

I can confirm two types of badges more:
- Aniversary badges (1st year, 2nd year...)
- Ancient membership

There used to be a list with all of them, but I guess it got deleted with the forum sweep. I believe that there are badges for having 5 of each of the Agree, LOL, Awesome, and Insightful. Plus, there is one for hitting 100 posts. I think there was one for having a signature, but I never got that badge.

ChanceofRust

First Answer - Answering questions is a great way to show your support for a community!

Though I'm pretty sure I wasn't the first one, so I guess there's a bit of leeway with that lol.

1 - PHOTOGENIC
Little things like uploading a profile picture make the community a better place. Thanks!

How does one upload a profile picture? I can only choose from ESO's own selection of pictures.

Gedalya

I received Photogenic by changing to one of the ESO forum pictures; but this is a great question as I do not see an option either to upload a custom image.

Tiyamel

same as Gedalya i changed pic to an ESO built in pics, as i could not find where to upload my own either, maybe thats a feature they will add in later

Nice system, shame about the look, feel and usability of the forums.

RedRum69

Time to get all these hehe ... or at least try but thanks for the info guys!

Inversus

What kemono said.
Although gestresst is on there, it is not actually available - a couple of people have it, but it doesn't do what it's supposed to.

ChanceofRust

Also, it appears they removed the ability to actually upload photos after the beta. My old profile picture showed for about 7-12 hours after launch, then disappeared and I was only able to choose a avatar. I suppose they didn't want a bunch of unpleasant pictures being used...or something?

@ChanceofRust
Yes, before we were able to have profile pictures. That feature was removed with launch and we have to choose from a preset array of pictures.

Ariane

I can confirm two types of badges more:
- Aniversary badges (1st year, 2nd year...)
- Ancient membership

I've got those because of a bug that has been fixed now. There is one each year (I got the 10th years of membership) and the Ancient one, which I don't remember if it was related to those 10 years or triggered with less time (i.e. 5 year being member).

ChanceofRust

Least it seems like you've embraced the change @Inversus, lol.

So anyone know what the points are for?

I think they go towards the stars. A certain amount of points gets you a new star added.

MattoxMaodhun

That makes sense. And do you know what the stars are for?

I would guess it would be some sort of rank, or to show off how active or interesting you are (based on this forum's system). For example, the Beth forums have Curate, Patriarch, etc.
