Awards only for big donators? - Aiba - Jun 15, 2015

has a regular or even a leet member recive an award from Omni? The donation ones don't count.

I'm pretty sure Omni just gives awards to whoever donates alot

He hasn't donated a lot, still got a few awards.

There is a lot of members that don't post a lot, that have awards without being upgraded nor donors.

It's just a legitimate question I've wondered as a statistician

How to get any award you want:
1. Donate $500 for the Ruby award
2. Get any other award you want free of charge
3. ???
4. Profit!

Not really - I got 1 award without donating though - he does give them out without donations.

It all depends on the award. Some awards just aren't given out by donating at all, but instead by earning it by assisting with something on the site, whether it be on something on the server-side or some other project that benefited the site as a whole. An example of this is with the Diamond award, where it takes a member several years of dedication towards making the community better as a whole to earn it. Awards such as this aren't bought. Awards such as the Hot Dog and the Award Whore are examples that may be given after a donation along with the Master Donator or Grand Amethyst.

He gives out misc awards that aren't really earned specifically with a donation but the specific awards that you earn like jokester, flamer, etc. are earned like they're supposed to.

I haven't seen so, but I think so like with the GFX Guru, Sticky Man, and maybe a few other awards? Like the people who helped with omc, didn't someone get the bronze or silver award?

He gave out the youtube award.

There seems to be a correlation between The big red emerald thing with a large number of misc awards

Another award is usually given when a member donates for either the Master Donator or Grand Amethyst award.

out of thanks because they donated
or because they really deserve it?

Usually because they donated it, sometimes they deserve it too.
