Fantastic.
It's been bugging me and I was just about to dive into another round of trying to sort it out.
![Beer | [beer]](https://codeproject.global.ssl.fastly.net/script/Forums/Images/beer.gif) time instead since it's meant to be a public holiday here

I'm curious (my knowledge in this area is slight) - Can you find out from the browser where a post is being displayed in the browser window?
|
|
|
|
|
Yes - which is how we're doing the jiggle creation. I mean smooth scrolling.

I have recently joined a popular alternate to CP because I wanted to up vote something that helped me out and I need a certain level of rep so I endured it. But there are a couple of features which would be great here in CP.
1. Trophies - Give me something good to work towards. Rather than all the little things certain other members do to get rep points (like add some spacing to a Q&A post  )
2. Notifications - It would be great to have an easy access way to see when people have replied to my messages, without either A) having to go search, or B) getting an email on my phone and then having to go search again. (I know there is a list in my profile, but that is just 1 click to many!)
Anyway, as with any of my other requests I will look forward to seeing this progress nowhere.

Ya know, I never thought this "Achievement Unlocked" trend in games would catch on...

This would be really useful for me, since I generally browse CP at work, but it's linked to my home e-mail. Doesn't need to be a real-time popup or anything, but maybe something that shows up on the top next to your name...

I have basically abandoned my Wii purely for PS3 trophies

That would be ideal yes

Isn't MVP-ness a big enough incentive for you?

It is not very varied thou. I certainly don't seek it out, it will come when/if it comes and that how I see that one. Rewarding people (even with just a bit of prestige) is only going to make this a better, more active community... and I think we could do with some reason to put of all the silly little rep-grabbing things that people do with re-formatting a bit of text that is fine just the way it is.
I am sick of seeing...
EDIT: I added a full stop so I could get some points.

Why? Isn't helping others reward enough or do you have to be patted on the head?

So do I.

I have spent many hours here helping people out purely because of my good nature, but that doesn't mean we can't add a little fun to the process as well

And having a small gold cup by your name is what you call fun?

Yeah, like having 257,502 (or so) points next to it? You saying that doesn't make you feel a more valued member than just "helping people"?

No, it doesn't.
What makes me feel valued is that people engage me in topics and conversations.
I respect those that really know what they are talking about, points do not enter it.
I haven't got a tiny penis that needs massaging with targets and trophies.

OH and lest we forget a certain CCC leader board! Can't members just enjoy the taking part and not the winning of the points and the climbing of the leader board... or maybe it is just a bit of added fun

The fact that you felt the need to point that out...

I bet if Chris offered gold cups for rewards you would be first in line.

If they were real gold cups and he could Fed Ex them regularly then yes, but I'd rather have the cash

I'm no prude, but I don't think the links here[] are exactly appropriate for CP. As for the name, it's a little too close considering the profile.
