Anybody else annoyed by these effin' achievement popups?

[purpleravenhawk]

stressed And they take too long to load.  

[Rinioa]

Yep.
It's stupid. (In my opinion) sweatdrop

Ummm... question... what do they even do?  

[Corruptor of Worlds]

They don't do anything really.
Just another pointless brag-feist.

And can't we turn them off in settings?  

[aamiller321]

what do you do with the points anyway?  

[purpleravenhawk]

I dunno. Seems even more pointless than the quests they used to do.  

[aamiller321]

Now I'm REALLY annoyed because I hit myself with the brick and got NOTHING! I even repeated the process several times!  

[xX Catgirl - Pierce Xx]

Now now, there are plenty of nicer things to hit yourself with, then bricks.

And I don't think you can "spend" the points on anything.
I believe they are just there to prove that you've done alot of them, which yes, is EXTREMELY pointless >.<  

[Rinioa]

Well the OLD quest system was cool.
It didn't pop up on your page, it was totally optional, and you got silly (sometimes cool) items from them. So, they might have been worthless in the market but they were still free.

This new system is just like previous stated in this thread, nothing more than a pointless brag-fest. *shakes head*

If ANYONE doesn't like the new point system, then the next time it pops up, look at the bottom of the small pop-up window and uncheck the box there before you "X" it out. That will make it stop popping up.

I liked it before. Now it is very bored...  

[purpleravenhawk]

*agrees with Rini again* xd

*shuts off popups* whee

*gives miller a cookie for his efforts* 3nodding

It all reminds me of xbox's gamerscore system. A pointless brag-fest, indeed. I read an editorial yesterday by a guy who quit his xbox live account and abandoned his gamerscore. He said it felt great cuz he hated competing for useless points like that.  

[aamiller321]

Indeed, it's just like KDR on Call of Duty, just something extra to brag about "I've got no life so I got really good at this game because I've got nothing else to do."  

[NeverMore42_6_6_6]

Jees... I'd be happy if I could make the points go into gold or something... then I could do something with it... but now that I know I can't do anything with it it pisses me off a tad...

I disabled mine a long time ago, but the little orange sparkle is still annoying when it flies across the screen.
