    Never because video game achievements are not something worthy of celebration unless you have serious self esteem issues.



    Only relevant achievements are ones that lock an item/mount/armor behind it and you want them for the reward.



    You do realize you can achieve things without a pop-up and a ding.

    In the early days, the 'ding' of success was celebrated, usually every game session or so.  These days, that elusive 'ding' only awakens me.  It's a bit disturbing.

    Logic, my dear, merely enables one to be wrong with great authority.

    Some folks are video gamers and hate themselves for it.

    Probs a few temp bans? I haven't noticed that many. 

    On topic, I still congratulate people. Even if they don't ask for it. It's just part of me after all this time. Old habits and all that.

    Same here, newbies to the guild (and I first noticed this about 15 years ago!) are sometimes bemused when they get a grats. Not every guild but some used to make a thing of it, making sure people got a grats for a laugh.

    "Archievements" are dumb and they've never done anything but annoy me.
