Blankos Junction incorporates a XP & Badge System to add a bit of fun around the community. It also lets others users see who are the most experienced users on the site.
Members will gain XP based on various tasks and Badges once they complete certain activities around the website. XP & Badges can be viewed in each user’s profile.
If you are experiencing any issues with the badge system, please let us know via Discord.

Viewing your XP History
Your XP history can be viewed in your profile via the ‘My Points History’ tab. This tab is not publicly shown and can only be seen by you. Note that the time and date shown is in GMT.
This should be a fun way to keep the community involved! Love the concept of this.. Great work on making it easy to understand and easy to see where you are at!
Thanks Shanobie, hopefully it gets the community to become more active across the site and adds a fun little element to the day to day use.
Any way to make it so that when you hover over your badge/s it tells you which one it is and maybe for what? Loving them though!
Thought it was nicer with names instead of the task. To view the task of how you earned yours, you can go into the points history for JUNC and it will tell you how you got the various badges. Hope that’s sufficient.
Loving my new badges! Thanks Blankos Junction! And great work on the development of the site and token..looking forward to seeing what comes in the future 🙂
Your badges were well deserved! Thanks for the kind words. The future is bright! Looking forward to all your future maps and how Blankos evolves in the years to come.
This is actually a really cool idea
Awesome job! This was a great idea.
I can’t wait to see how much this game grows and the community with it!
