New 'Badge' system for authors!
And other stuff...

Hello everyone and thanks for checking in on Hackmons Hub!
Today, I have some exciting news. Remember how I mentioned last week that I was working on some perks? Well, we've added a flair system to reward those who submit approved movesets to the database! For authors who have contributed significantly to this website, you may see a Bronze, Silver, Gold, or Platinum badge next to your name! These are rewarded based on the following criteria:
- 10+ approved submissions: Bronze
- 15+ approved submissions: Silver
- 25+ approved submissions: Gold
- 40+ approved submissions: Platinum
Of note, you do not need to be a registered user to obtain flair. Even authors who have been written as free-text may find themselves with a badge. Just make sure that when you submit, the spelling of your name is consistent. If you have any questions or issues (such as registering as a member and need help with transferring submissions to get your badge) please reach out to me, either in the Help & Support Forums or shoot me a message on Discord either via DM or on our public server.
Additionally, you can now use the search bar in the moveset database to search for sets based on author! Simply type in the name of the author and their movesets should show up (this also supports partial spelling).
Last but not least, if you go on our Forums, you may notice that there are additional features you can use, including embedded Strawpolls as well as embedded YouTube videos! To make a poll on the forums, simply create a Strawpoll, click on Insert Poll, and paste the URL of your Strawpoll link. Strawpolls are free and you do not need to register to make one.
To share a YouTube video, simply click on Insert Video and paste the link to the video you want to share. Here's an example of what it looks like:

Last but not least, thank you to EVERYONE for 100k subscribers, meaning I will be getting a Silver Play Button! This was a huge milestone for the isleep2late channel, and I couldn't have done it without the Hackmons community. It's been an incredible journey, and I look forward to the future of Hackmons Hub.
