Trophies are back, with new names

Trophies have been part of the forum since 2016 but had been switched off for years. As of 19 October they are on again, and they now have names that fit this place. There are eight: four for posting and four for how people react to your posts.

Trophy	How you earn it	Points
First Solve	Your first post	1
First Reaction	Someone reacts to one of your posts	2
Sub-30	30 posts	5
Ao100	100 posts	10
Crowd Favourite	Reaction score of 25	10
Podium Finish	Reaction score of 100	15
Thousand Club	1,000 posts	20
Hall of Fame	Reaction score of 250	20

Your reaction score counts the positive reactions your posts receive, including the new Helpful reaction. Points show on your profile and under your avatar. Member titles are separate and still come from your post count: Regular at 25 posts, Veteran at 250, Legend at 2,500 (will be updated soon).

A note for long-time members: the first time you visit, you will get every trophy you have earned over the years in one go, dated that day. That is a one-time catch-up, not a bug. From now on, trophies arrive as you earn them.

The full list is always at Help > Trophies.

These are some changes made by me on the backend of the server, not related to the wiki content.

I have all of these trophies, which together should be 83 points, but my profile displays that I only have 51. Is this some sort of bug?

 

[Puzzle Maniac]

Of course @Powstick was the first one to react to my post (he's the culprit of the 18 pings)

Sorry about that, the trophy system came back after ten years and caught everyone up at once; that is done now, only new ones will notify.

Please keep any feedback coming, thanks.

Can we expect new trophies to be added in the future?

I am using the new theme, but it seems the top bar has bad contrast:

As you can see, the text is black on top of a darker blue, making it harder to see. I think you should make that text white.

Fixed now, please check.

Yes what suggestions do you have?

Yes what suggestions do you have?

Some more trophies for higher reaction score would be nice, doesn't have to be crazy numbers (like some of us have,) but somewhere in the 500+ RS bracket might be good.

Possibly follower related trophies?

What if you made the the background color (not the one on the margin, the background of the center, the one behind this message) straight up black and use have a higher «border-radius» (rounded style) for the things that are currently rectangles (such as this message). I would suggest making this a seperate theme. Another thing, since the only colors mainly being used are blue and grey, I would suggest changing that up a little based on the theme. Or maybe at this point just make a custom speedsolving.com theme maker

Also, whilst on the beta Speed Solving theme, there is a changer from dark to light mode on the top, however none for Xenoforo.

Another thing, a simple bug happens when I enter the forums without an account, the issue with the contrast with the black and dark blue is not fixed.
