ACCOLADE REQUEST THREAD --- please only post if you qualify for an accolade |

This thread allows you to request accolades for your account that go under your profile picture.

NOTE:

--- If requesting a badge such as the referrer accolades that needs PROOF, please post the link of a profile or thread along with your request.

What Accolades Can I Get?
The first kind of accolades you can earn is a staff-run event badges, which are usually stickied in specific boards with a link to this thread. Make sure that you read the first post so that you meet the posting requirements for that thread before requesting it! If the event is retired you can no longer earn the badge.

NOTE:
---Staff no longer handle Clan accolades. All members now have the power to create and distribute accolades of their own for their Clans, packs and other groups as they wish. When you make a accolade, please use your own graphic or a graphic that you have been given permission to use or is licensed for free use. Staff do NOT manage member-made accolades! They are managed by whichever member created the badge in question.

To create a badge, go to [Username] --> Accolades --> Edit Accolades. The accolade creation is found there.

Members can also now delete their own badges by going to [Username] --> Accolades --> My Accolades and hitting the X on the ones they want to get rid of.

Other accolades you can earn can be found [HERE].

--- Posting your request more than ONCE/re-quoting before a staffer replies. Staff is busy and contrary to what you might think posting more than once causes staff more work and delay us in getting your accolade to you.
--- Do NOT Spam!
--- Do NOT LIE about earning a accolade. Cheaters get ALL their accolades removed!
---Do NOT ask us if you qualify. Before you post to this thread, you need to know already whether or not you do. We will not give accolades to people who don't know.
---Unless you are really not capable of removing them yourself, don't ask for staff to remove accolades for you here. It's simple to do yourself. Just go profile > my accolades, and then click the "x" on the bottom right hand corner of the badge. Staff do not have to remove badges if they don't want to.
--- High Positions may only hold the badge for the position they currently hold and not those leading up to it. This is to avoid confusion. You may only have the badge of your current rank.

---Post your request only once.
---Wait patiently for staff to give you your accolade. Accolades may take up to 24 hours to be issued.

HELP! I haven't gotten the accolade I requested after a staffer said they were handling it!
---If you did not get the accolade you requested you either did not qualify or a staffer has not yet given you your accolade. If it is the later case please be patient and do not repost your request until it has been at least 24 hours.

I don't understand this.
If you have a question or don't understand please ask in the help den. There are many members who will be able to help you and be able to give you a faster answer than staff will be able to if you post in this thread.

_{STAFF, read THIS before giving accolades!}

Quick notice for members about to request their badges after we cleaned out the badge system, please do not request a badge for a position you no longer hold.

Please be patient while waiting for your badges. Staff will be remaking the frontboard group badges first and foremost for you to request. (Because those badges rarely change.)
HOWEVER, groups will need to resubmit their title badges-staff have decided groups may have 5-6 title badges and no more. This is because quite a few groups had more than 10 different title badges listed in the system, some of which were not even assigned.

Backboards MUST have the leader request the badges to be remade with the ranks due the fact merges have caused some clans to combine ranks, change clan name and redesign their badges entirely.

So please make sure your backboard leader is aware they must make a post with the new ranks and what their badge looks like here to have THOSE remade.

Please keep your badges no larger than 200x200 to avoid having them stretching the page in the badge system, this makes it hard to quickly sort through badges.

For members requesting old choice award badges and event badges please show your screenshots.

Note for staff, to keep all badges for HPs uniform they are laid out as such.
Name of Badge: (Groupname) (Rankname)
Description: This member plays the/a (insert rank) or (insert group).
