PSA: There is a cap on forum badges displayed
And I call this a PSA because when the system was first introduced, GGG had actually said that it would be unlimited (source: https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/2138917). I don't think the cap was announced anywhere and I won't have known about it if I hadn't hit the cap earlier this league. For those who are reaching the same number of badges as me, this is heads up for you.
Have to say I am pretty upset about this. I am still a huge fan of the game and what the team is bringing to the table each league and with POE2 of course. But things like this is where I feel the most fervent supporters often get shafted :( It will convert your forum titles into decorative square badges that use the space next to your forum posts more economically so that you can show off an unlimited number of them at any one time. - GGG, 2018 (https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/3573673) Last bumped on Nov 12, 2024, 11:41:43 PM

Wow! What kind of effort and how much money spent on those packs!
Why cant GGG just reduce the size and increase the badge count? | |
Every statement made by any company is only valid as long as conditions remain unchanged. In this case, when there were only a few of them, no one thought it would ever become a problem.
Seriously, you have no reason to trust any company. On Probation Any%

Much like the broken depth levels of delve, I doubt GGG were anticipating anyone actually reaching the limit when they came up with it originally. You can perhaps take comfort in the knowledge that you are the shitstain steve of supporter packs.

Well... These amounts of badges are fucking up how the posts/threads are being displayed. But we can all see a big, unused space under the post which should probably be utilized in a (better) way.
The point of badges is displaying them, and they should find a way to display them all without having one post from a high spender like yourself to fill the first page of a thread. Sometimes, just sometimes, you should really consider adapting to the world, instead of demanding that the world adapts to you.

" I am guessing it is not straightforward to reduce the pixel count. " I mean, GGG has said old supporter packs wont come back and kept to it. In this case, even if conditions changed, it would have been nice if they had reached out to me earlier and give a heads up :( " NEEDFORSTEVEUNDERGOUND " On one hand, you're absolutely right. On the other... one of my trolling wish was to have enough badges to really fill a full page of a thread in a single post xD Busted now to the relief of... everyone else? :( It will convert your forum titles into decorative square badges that use the space next to your forum posts more economically so that you can show off an unlimited number of them at any one time. - GGG, 2018 (https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/3573673)

They could already fix the wall of "void" issue by extending the post_info_content part even further to the right. Even a 1080p could easily fit more than 6 badge icons in a single column and it would all still be very centered while cutting down the length of the "void" wall.
Flames and madness. I'm so glad I didn't miss the fun.

I honestly wish the limit was MUCH smaller, scrolling through posts is a pain if even one high badge poster is frequent, and it's often more than that.
Or just a rethinking of the layouts, or like, an exploding menu when you mouse over to reduce the space eaten. Just something simple like making them horizontal under the signature would go a long way to reducing the MASSIVE lost space per post. That or capping the post count by the size of the post, so it'd just add enough badges as to not expand the length of the post for no reason, or a user end limit (i.e I could set it so I only ever see the first four badges, but someone else could choose to see the first hundred).

Op can you tell us how much money spend please ? O_O
I hope GGG will give an instant beta access to the OP x) | |
" As someone who also has a metric ton of supporter badges, I'm glad there's a hard limit even on the icons. I don't want to see someone take an entire page so they can show off their terrible spending habits. PoE players: Our game has a wide diversity of builds.
Also PoE players: The [league mechanic] doesn't need to be nerfed, you just need to play a [current meta] build! MFers found strength in their Afflictions. They became reliant on them. I am not so foolish. |
