This is just an idea, on FairyTailBase, every time you reach a post milestone (100 posts, 200 posts, 300 posts e.t.c.) you gain a little badge/bar with a character and a word (e.g. 200 Posts *Laxus* Energetic). In MAL it would be placed under the post count and i think it would liven up the posts. Just a suggestion and with this sites already capping on how many threads you can make i think it wont be abused.

EDIT: What about achievements like I have mentioned above but for things that you do in MAL not post counts? aswell as what i have said above

Could be possible when MAL was your typical forum that uses vbulletin, xenforo, phpbb etc.
But with MAL current script. They need to modify it again. But who knows?
Haters always gonna hate.

Xinil said he was planning on doing something like that, but more for doing stuff for MAL than reaching milestones.

It's generally not a good idea to reward users based on their post count. Especially in an environment where people are allowed to post spam messages in so-called forum games and chat threads. It may work well as an incentive in smaller communities, but I don't think it's a good fit for MyAnimeList.

Why should there be caps to how many posts I can make in club games just because of some stupid milestones abuse prevention?

I didn't say they should add it lol, i said they already have something like that implemented with the amount of threads people can make cuz i got a message saying you have to wait 5 mins between the creation of threads. But your views on it without the cap confusion?

Yeah, now i think of it some people are pretty sad and get #lifegoal feelings from achievements. Why do no lifes have to exist xD

You said "how many", not "how often". See the difference?
