Not going to paraphrase, but here you go (minus the actual lists of milestones):
For years JJHuddle members have been bragging about their post counts. And rightfully so. Now, though, you’ll have visual proof of your conquests too.
Starting today, JJHuddle is rewarding its premium members with “Varsity Letters.” How do you earn them? It’s easy – talk sports.
Every post you make on JJHuddle will be counted and displayed on the site like always. The key is now there will be “Awards” that accompany your username as well. As you accumulate more and more posts in the forums, you’ll be eligible for more letters and chevrons.
We’ll also be launching a “JJHuddle Leaderboard” that will show the all-time leaders in posts and the leaders for the current calendar year. Stay tuned as we put together prize packages for our leading posters each year as well.
HOW DOES IT WORK?
Your first chevron will be awarded after you’ve made 100 posts on JJHuddle. Your first letter will be awarded after you’ve made 600 posts, and it’ll be based on the forum where you post the most. If you post predominantly in the football forums, for instance, you’ll get a football letter for your first one.
After your first letter, you’ll continue to accumulate jackets and chevrons in order (see the list below).
Here’s a full breakdown of the milestones needed to get chevrons and jackets:
Once you earn a letter you lose your chevrons. They begin again with the next round of posts.
As you can see above, the first letter is the only one that will be determined by the forums you use the most. After that, you’ll receive the following letters in order:
Once you post enough to earn all eight letters…did we mention we’ll have a leaderboard? Annually and historically.
