Its part of the new kinder, gentler ATOT. An attempt to appeal to millennials who need trophies for everything - even posting nonsense online


I wouldn't really say it's this site's decision, but rather the forum software writers for Xenforo. Seen as how the transition from vbulletin to Xenforo is relatively simple, I can see why they chose Xenforo above all other software platforms.

I like phpBB myself and that's what I use.
