Missing Emblems Thread--(please read first 3 posts)

Dracula68 · 2011-05-02 12:59:15

For those of you who don't know, there are many types of emblems but I consider them as two different categories; automated and manual.STOP!READ THIS POST BEFORE POSTING YOUR EMBLEM REPORT 1) Automated emblems are handed out when based on the way you use certain features of the site over a long period of time. It can be anything from being popular, the types of console platforms you own, tagging content, video you upload and much more. Unions are also under this category. Automated emblems can often disappear from your profile. If you have noticed that a certain emblem has been gone for 24 hours you can report your problem in this thread.2) Manual emblems are normally given out from attending a live broadcasts, participating in tournaments, winning a contest and other related events. These emblems can be automated in the sense of coding (where no staff need to manually add them) but they can be handed out if there was a problem happening during the time of the broadcast or event. However, automated usage of the site emblems cannot be handed out manually so this is why they are considered as manual emblems.As mentioned in the Knowledgebase under 'I am missing an emblem, what should I do?':GameSpot emblems are a privilege. We do not hand out emblems if you happen to miss out on an opportunity to receive one. If you did not receive an emblem for watching a broadcast there is most likely a reason for this. This may occur if you did not watch broadcast stream long enough.IMPORTANT! Please wait 24 hours before reporting your problem in this thread if it's an automated emblem. Customer Support should only be contacted if you have a problem with a manual emblem and once again, wait 24 hours before contacting them that your emblem is missing. Even then you are more likely not going to receive the emblem unless there is a valid reason or if there is a known bug and many others are having the same problem.Upon receiving your missing emblemPlease don't post you got the emblem in this thread, but pm (personal message) me you received it instead. Posts like these will be deleted.Debates of any kind will not be supportedThis is a REPORTING thread and not a feedback thread. Your post may be edited or deleted by an admin or moderator if anyone is not reporting an emblem missing and are debating. Use the Site Enhancement Feedback board if you have feedback.EDIT: Reader's Choice 2010 emblem final word mentioned in now in the last post. Thanks again for reporting the emblem problem by January 31 for this investigation.

You're too late for last years. This years can be earned by watching the streams at any point during E3 week, so if you haven't got the MS one yet rewatching the stream for a bit should help. (If not, try it in another browser - there might be some issues with Chrome from experiences so far)

I watched all of the E3 2011 Microsoft Press Conference, but I got no emblem. I was watching on Google Chrome, and I was signed in.

Will I still get the emblem if I watch it again even though it is archived?

I did mention to staff that there might be an issue with Chrome before the EA broadcast started, so maybe there was a bug that was fixed prior to Sony. It does seem so far at least it's Chrome users who haven't been getting it from the Microsoft stream.

Yeah, I had it on Chrome and Firefox, so I'm not sure which one worked. I had it on mute so I could watch wrestling, then turned them off when I got it.

As dab has been saying to everyone missing an emblem for a press conference, just go back and watch it again, possibly with a different browser. Make sure the video actually starts (perhaps after an ad); if it doesn't, reload until it does. Once the press conference video starts playing, leave the window open for a little more than 10 minutes, at least. Then wait for the emblem to work its way through the system (which can take quite a while). Clear your browser cache to make sure it's not just your browser hiding the new emblem from you. I'm actually here just to remind the caretakers that a couple emblems are showing placeholders that I don't think were still meant to. [size=0]Samples: 12345[/size] The 32x32 Sony emblem showing in profiles is currently:

The 64x64 Samurai emblem showing in profiles is currently:

The 32x32 Silver Gladiator emblem showing in profiles is currently:

I figure those will probably be remedied before long, and when that happens the images above may update automatically.

Hello, I am here today cause I didn't know about this thread. I lost a few emblems while you guys did the transition to the new front end of the site (layout), now my only prove is that I posted about it in my blog. One of them was the: Turkey Day Turkey Turkey Turkey 2006 Turkey Turkey Turkey Turkey Turkey Turkey Turkey Turkey Turkey 2006 Turkey Turkey Turkey 2006 Turkey Turkey Turkey Turkey Turkey Turkey Turkey Turkey Turkey Turkey Turkey 2006 Turkey Turkey Turkey Turkey Turkey Turkey Turkey Turkey 2006 Turkey Turkey 2006 Turkey Turkey Turkey Turkey Turkey Turkey Turkey 2006 Turkey 2006 Turkey Turkey Turkey 2006 Turkey Turkey Turkey Turkey Turkey Turkey Turkey Turkey Turkey Turkey 2006 Turkey Turkey Turkey 2006 Turkey Turkey Turkey Turkey Turkey Turkey Turkey 2006 Turkey Turkey Turkey Requirements: Logging onto GameSpot on the November23rd2006. (Thanksgiving Day). Comments: This emblem actually lasted for a while, but was removed from profiles sometime in 2007. Could it make a return, possibly. Rarity: Impossible But I read this and then I knew I lost it forever. Now the other I had was: All hands on deck! For those who participated in the Battlestations: Midway Xbox 360 demo premiere. Requirements:Watching the Live Feed of the Battlestations: Midway Sneak Peek on the 18th of January 2007 Examples: Soulreavercross, Kreestas, fastesttruck Rarity: Uncommon Now this one I would like to know if you guys can help me getting it back....let me know if I need to do something. Thanks...

Hi GSTS

I read the first three posts ... in my case some GS emblems I've had for a long time disappeared a few weeks ago.

Last week they reappeared(!) and now some are missing again(?). I'm pretty sure I only had GS related emblems, including those related to my collection (which may be "buggy" per your 3 posts).

Apologise if this is in contravention of the posting rules but just in case the "missing, here now, gone again" problem is user specific.

Cheers

It is going out now, but seems a bit iffy on who it wants to give it to. People are saying they have had to follow a new announced game even though they have already.

It looks to me like the Ninja emblem is being awarded immediately when an applicable game is followed, but it may take a while (like an hour or two) before the emblem shows up in the profile pages. It may take considerably longer for the game to show up in the following list (like a day). That's how the Ninja worked for me. Apparently following a game works differently now than it used to; I'm not sure what the implications are of the changes that occurred under the hood, or exactly when they went in, but I think it was at about the same time the "follow" text got so much larger in gamespaces. The gladiator and thumb emblems will arrive later for those who qualify, assuming things go as planned.

You'd need to identify, specifically, which emblems you think you are missing. We need to update the initial posts, but if the emblems you think you are missing are mentioned in post #2 and/or #3, chances are that you either don't qualify for that emblem any more or that the emblem was only "missing" at the moment you checked it. For the last few days, the emblems described in posts #2 and #3 (with the likely exception of Outlier) have actually been working the way they are intended to, where they are present for most (but not all) of any given day in the profiles of users qualifying on that day.

I got mine. I'm still missing Microsoft though. I didn't get it last year for some reason either. Is it buggy, because the Sony and Nintendo ones popped up almost immediately when I was done watching them (both years).

It is buggy, but watching the conference again (maybe in a different browser) should award it to you. Waiting won't help.

I am quite surprised that some have the New Game Ninja achivement but I did not even though I have "followed" more than ten games that were announced at E3. I will just wait until the 13th.

I followed a bunch of newly announced games too,and also don't have this emblem, . Wouldn't surprise me if I meet the reqs for other emblems and don't have them either, I honestly haven't even glanced at what emblems were for this E3 until just now. Edit: Briefly looking through the E3 emblems list I should have the gladiator/ninja emblems that I've yet to receive (just received MS conference emblem..) ; there is of course a chance they just haven't been given out to everyone yet of course.
