I think the second one has to do with Halo 1 modding, but I'm not too sure about it.

Can I see your logic for the making good tutorials emblem. Because i've seen plenty of good tutorials that not one of the people have the emblem. This is including an extremely detailed and pictured tutorial i've made. So, i'm just wondering how you came up with this product.

Well the reason no one has gotten one is because it hasn't been gaven out for at least a year now. Last time it was gaven out ScottyGEE got a chevron for his Real Time Shadow tutorial, Monkey Terd got a 2nd chevron because he has made a lot of good tutorials, and SoL got one for his amazing Script tutorial.
That's the only two I can remember but what makes me think it is Kirk had the 1st chevron and then posted that he never made a tutorial and once he had his emblem was removed.
Believe me some people say I should have gotten the emblem for my tutorial helping with Yelo, I don't really care because it's just a picture but it's got over 10,000 views and I still get questions from people that didn't read the tutorial carefully and ask me. I've had to empty my PM box so many times after answering messages that it was a common thing to do about every 3-4 days.

I agree with you alot of people deserve a emblem for it, but the person that controls it is probably never around anymore. I thought emblems were starting up again but it died two days later.

I really dont know what the trickser one is for, I've only been posting for like 5 months and Mb ive done something and maybe I havent but it would be sorta nice to know how/why i got it.
Edit; It could be for doing alot for being here for a short time of being here.

Erm...First part I'll just say that Yelo kinda came with instructions, things like Dynamic shadows were new, people didn't know about it, so I wrote up stuff about it to allow others to do the same (disregarding how it could be implemented into a plugin easily and Detox also decided to make an app). SoL's tutorial was essentially the same type of thing, something undocumented something new. Your coverage of Yelo may have helped people out but I don't think it is similar to the two above examples, or it was not written well or something like that...I've never seen the tutorial, I never needed help so I'm just assuming (No ass of u me thing please, I've heard it enough in my lieftime, I don't want it here too >_<)

The last few words of your post were a bit wrong to me

.Of course it was concluded that yeah there was a bit of inactivity time with certain (as in, not all) emblems but to say that it has died two days later is wrong. Most likley everyone who really deserved it received it (or at least most) and now its up to the people to earn the things themselves again. I doubt it was really just giving out for 2 days like you said just to tease us so that they can surprise us again 6 months later.

But there is a chance however, that you are right and I am wrong, and my whole time writing this was wasted because the person became inactive.

Hmmm...This post is slightly longer than I thought. I'm not trying to say that you or others who have done stuff are undeserving...More that I thought your post was slightly wrong...DON'T HATE ME PLEASE!

Oh, the first part of the post was what I thought was how the tutorial emblem was given out.

I know my tutorial didn't deserve a emblem because it wasn't new and when people said something about me getting one I usually would say that if I deserve one then Xbox7887 deserved one since he did already make a tutorial with it.

As for the emblem dying thing I didn't mean like died like it ain't gonna happen again or for a while I meant died as it stopped but I'm sure it will show up again in a few days. The only emblem I know that is being giving out actively is the skinning emblem when people deserve it for a nice skin.

Oh and I hate you. Not really I couldn't hate you,SGEE. =D

I'm still wondering what the new one is, the red one with the card and the ace >_>

People seriously make too big a deal out of these. They're just a little picture below your name/avatar, and it's not like they actually get you somewhere in life. Plus, when you get one just for doing what you normally do, it just feels that much better.

i think it gives people something to do like its a way to inspire someone to do something amazing like it did cabose but they are kinda pointless but i guess who are we to complain

They never really meant anything to me(maybe because I have none).
It's just another thing we think of before we sleep at night. I think people should stop thinking so much about whats under the guys name who is posting , and rather about the post itself.
