How important are accolades to you?
So today I woke up to find 4 more accolades in my profile bringing the total to 6. I was so ecstatic I couldn't help but jump up and down in ma room. How do you react when you get a new accolade?
accolades are a sign of recognition. They spur you to perform better and they also have a way of making you happy and giving you a feeling that you efforts are not being wasted. Accolades are very important.
I agree with The Shawl, they definitely spur you on to perform better. When I got the accolade for writing engaging content I was thrilled as it was recognition that my writing is of a high standard. I am currently trying to hit the next accolade for hub views, so I would agree accolades are very important. They keep you striving to achieve something new.
I personally love accolades. They look great on your profile, and it's always a nice feeling when you get them (I jump up and down too!) I think they're a great incentive and they inspire people to do more in the Hubpages community, as well as writing. I'm currently working towards one right now - the questions ones.
Accolades are awesome! It always feels great to receive recognition for your work, even if you are just creating hubs on hubpages. This is what motivates you and gives you the inspiration to keep going because getting feedback from others (both positive and negative) is a necessity for continued development and improvement in all spectrums!
Keep it up!

Have I missed an announcement about accolades being scrapped? I have recently posted my 10th Hub, but still do not have the corresponding accolade showing on my profile.Anyone else having similar problems?

Achieved two accolades that aren't reflected on my profile page, 100 forum posts, and 10,000 view accolade. Perhaps it's just delayed, but wanted to give admin a heads up!"It's my accolade, and I need it now!"

I received notification that I was getting another accolade for 100 forum posts, but I haven't seen it post to my profile and it's been at least 24 hours. Any ideas how long it takes to post?

Presently, the subject accolade is set up to reflect when a hubber reaches 1000, 10,000, 100,000, 1,000,000, 10,000,000 and 100,000,000 views. I believe that it should be revised to where it would reflect 1000, 10,000, 25,000, 50,000, 75,000, 100,000 views, with the all of other levels remaining...
