Interactive new user tutorial - Posts about nothing :) now with polls

While adjusting setting in my user profile I admired the Badges I’ve earned! Ultimately ended on a list of all the possible Badages! Wouldn’t it be real neat to have a few more.

I notice one for Certified:

This badge is granted upon successful completion of the interactive new user tutorial.
You’ve taken the initiative to learn the basic tools of discussion, and now you’re certified!

Where is this “interactive tutorial”?

Then seems I can go on to get Licensed:

This badge is granted upon successful completion of the interactive advanced user tutorial. You’ve mastered the advanced tools of discussion — and now you’re fully licensed!

That just sounds super awesome! It doesn’t look like anyone found that one, but apparently 46 users are Certified.

I know it’s getting late for me, and I have more important things to be concerned with, but I just wonder about pointless things.

I’m certified. You need to chat with @discobot. I’m not sure the exact process to initiate the tutorial. I suspect it was either in an email after I joined or I was prompted online soon after I joined.

Congratulations!! I hadden’t gotten around to mess’n with it… but kind of had that idea. I am glad you’re number 1 thought, since you’re already certified :laughing:

I’ve used the little triangle thing to kind of ‘hide’ a snark remark

:poop:

You know, the polls should be used more often instead of some of the pointless back-and-forth at times.

Totally agree and I love your hidden remark.

It wasn’t immediately obvious to me how to start the advanced tutorial, but I finally figured it out.

See what I mean?

Just ask discobot to start advanced user!

You can learn something new every day if you try.

@bbaorbb here’s another waiting for a first

Promoter

This badge is granted when you invite someone to join the community via the invite button on your user page, or at the bottom of a topic. Inviting friends who might be interested in specific discussions is a great way to introduce new people to our community, so thanks!

you got this!! They’ll need to add Badge Master next

I saw that and thought of a friend of mine who has a Tablo - I’m not sure if he is already part of the community (probably). I could add my dad who now has a Tablo but I am his Tablo support guy…

You got this! Inviting someone as a Promoter isn’t the same as Campaigner or a Champion.

You have to work your way through these pointless badges, start small then

go big

(where’s my big letter badge?)
