Hello everyone,

with today's Summer Update, the TibiaQA's fansite item - Omniscient Owl Omniscient Owl  was implemented and is available in-game :)

This is a good time to announce the Fansite Contribution System! All players that manage to collect 4000 reputation points will receive the Omniscient Owl as a reward for their amazing contributions towards building the knowledge base on TibiaQA.

We have also introduced an easy way to track your remaining points towards obtaining the Omniscient Owl.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask :)

Edit 1. Creating multiple accounts or asking friends to mass up-vote your content will be treated as cheating and will result in a punishment in form of reduced points or suspension of the user account!

Good luck!

4000?! I have been more than 1 year checking the website everyday and being top 1  for many months and now Im suppose to get 2100 points more? buf.. I think is too much dude

We will monitor how this develops, but as we go, it should be easier and easier to get points (since more users can vote), hence that high number. It's also supposed to be difficult to obtain the item, or it would quickly stop being rare.

Getting 4000 points is more than 1 year being every day active posting and answering and getting upvotes which is not easy... And example is Ellotris than even being very active and being the owner of the site with many questions made , many answers many upvote and he has only 1,065  in so long time, 4000 points from zero it takes  more than 2 years.

And is that hard because I got in many questions many views but very low upvotes , and I made so many good answers with a lot of research and knowdledge and I got like +2 upvotes , only 2 upvotes from 300 users....
an example:

https://www.tibiaqa.com/814/what-are-the-best-charms-for-each-vocation  (Almost 10000 views, only 6 upvotes )

another example of good answer with low upvotes

https://www.tibiaqa.com/592/what-quests-are-the-best-to-gain-fast-money?show=592#q592   in this one I got just 4 upvotes also in a question that has more than 4000 views... so 4000 points its almost imposible to get in less than 2 years.

Thanks for the comments, people! Zupakode, pay attention that Ellotris organizes periodically a good amount of contests with website points as a premiation. Rest assured that we can discuss more about points with the community, but so far I am 100% supportive of Ellotris idea here of putting 4000 as the amount of points needed. And as Ellotris said, we can discuss more in the near future about ways of getting more points. I suggested in the past that questions and answers with high amount of views deserves more points, so things can always be improved if needed in a reasonable way.

I feel that the amount of points needed represents the importance that you need to gather in the website in order to be awarded, and it needs to be big and meaningful. You did more than one quarter to get to the prize (actually you are close to get the half of the way done) and I particularly can say that I upvoted a lot of your content due to the quality that you put when you need to answer or ask something.

Very nice! I like when fansite give us the oppotunity to win a fansite item doing some good job, not everyone is good at doing pixelart or other kind of contests.
I agree with Zupakode that this amount of 4000 is too much, but FPoPP bring to us a good point, I'm sure if they identify that this task is too hard they can modify it.
I think if the community help each other everyone wins here.

Every good answer, even the ones that helps just a little must be upvote, cuz ppl try to help as much as they can, some have time enough to do good researchs, other not. So let help us guys

Nice! nice to never got.. xD

I think the idea you said about giving extra points for views is important , I got in 2 questions 15000 views that I got to the website.
Also I also thought you were going to send me the fansite item since for 1 year I have been the most active user , top1 in points for almost 1 year, the user that got the more views to the site and im also the guy with the more amounts of contest won in the fansite. And now if I want the fansite item I will have to wait like 1 year more :(
by (3,967 points)
Zupakode, you made about 100 points last 2 days. If you keep that pace, you will reach 4000 points in less than 2 months ;)
by (115 points)
Being active many hours maybe it takes me 2-3 more months , but the people that doesnt have 2k points like me will need 1year and some monhts..
by (388 points)

But on other fansites gathering points takes  about 1 year, when you are very active! 2 months is really nothing :P If I were Ellrotis, I would make it even harder :D Imo fansite item has to be unique and hard to obtain.

I got to know the Owl likes furry carpets, so make sure you have a comfy room before winning it in the contribution system! ;)

Congrats by the new Item finally implemented!

This gonna explode this web (Good think)!

I agree with Zupa, 4.000 is too much.

Why I gonna upvote other users  and help them to get the item, mmm better downvote and you know... think on that @Ellotris Guardian.
by (274 points)
Well, the item is not limited so blocking people from getting it does not help that much, and also "downvoters" can be punished if we discover that behavior. As Ellotris said, we will pay attention to people downvoting on purpose.
by (573 points)
Is not limited but, but If I can get it more faster than others (Blocking), better to me and more items in game, less price (Thats why people can think to do it).

You know how works it, I dont need broke any rule to start give downvotes with the justification of (I'M NOT AGREE WITH THIS Q/A).

Any way, I keep hope to dont see it here.

Nice contest :D very hard but looks worth the try.... There is a place where I can see the item? or only when someone win?
by (274 points)
Hm, you can see it on Tibian Prize Exhibition along with your character at any Tibia server every sunday... Or not yet, Ellotris? ^^

https://tibia.fandom.com/wiki/Tibian_Prize_Exhibition

I will look for it during the next weekend about it, but it should be there I guess!
by (3,967 points)
Ah, it should be there indeed, but I haven't managed to verify that on the test server :)
by (42 points)

They should consider launching points-rewarding "events," because 4000, as many have said, seems like a pretty significant amount.
by (3,967 points)
We periodically run contests with reputation points as rewards :)
by (573 points)
Do you gonna up the amount of points as rewards?
by (3,967 points)
I don't have any concrete plans yet, so we will see how it develops.

Well, many of you say that 4000 points is too much, but contribution system just started! Let's wait and see if it is really too much in practice. Now there will be more active users, what makes it easier! :)

Moreover, according to my own experience - contribution system, which is too easy after few years makes fansite item cheap and not as wanted as it should be. To have fansite item player should be very active about 1 year at least. I remember times, when TibiaRoyal has started their contribution system, it was too easy at the beginning and now there are dozens of Shields of Destiny among Tibia what makes this item less unique.

Little off topic:

The Owl is cute! :D

You are right tibia royal's Item seems less unique but held value pretty well I think with it being worth over 100kk. I tried myself a few years ago to get there item but put in 100h+ just for 10% of the points needed for there fansite item. I love the point systems and am curious how this one will go compared to Tibia Royals system.
