Here it is. (much less guff this time, isn't it?)

Here you go.

Same would have happened to admins, not that it really matters.

MrOllyK, I got the point. Thanks.

It is not possible, I am sorry. All ranks have been recalculated by the system using the revised rules. Achievements (in the sense of badges) have remained the same, only the ranks have changed for some - for many, it must be admitted. What you have contributed to the community has not changed either...

Look, this is not an arbitrary degradation to demean all of you for some stupid reason or anything, it was a mistake in the formulation of the rule governing these ranks. Human error, it happens to everyone. We will not"re-rank" people now as they were before. What you had previously was the result of a wrong calculation, so, it wasn't real. Nobody has received exceptional treatment in this matter, by the way, if someone has not changed rank, it is simply because they had points in reserve and they covered the impact.

Yes, it sucks and sorry for the inconvenience. 

As a consolation, it is worth mentioning that these ranks are different from user groups such as "Member Level 1", "Member Level 2" - unlike them, they give nothing but a small icon next to the avatar, no other additional bonuses. And a true reputation is an incalculable asset.

Thanks, Euphie, for the explanation.

Fair enough, I guess I just have to work harder then? 

Hi Admin.,

I have read through the announcement concerning achievements being reduced and ranking being demoted.

May I know if there are ways to retrieve the achievements and restore my racking since they are symbols to demonstrate what has been contributed to the community?

Thanks.
