Can I boost my dorm to get a badge slot?

[timid python]

Yes you can boost your own dorm to get a badge slot

[dull laurel]

How much boosts would be needed to get a badge slot?

[timid python]

Oh wait nvm...you can't

I misunderstood the question sorry :}

[dull laurel]

So it’s not possible getting a badge slot for my own dorm room?

[timid python]

Nope, you can't boost your own dorm to get a slot

You have to boost a public room to get a badge slot

[paper pasture]

@dull laurel you can boost your own dorm to get a badge. Someone already has done it. You need around 300+ to get on the boost board

[dull laurel]

So this really works?

[paper pasture]

yes

[dull laurel]

Thank you!!

[paper pasture]

You can boost your dorm to try get on the boosted board but it’ll take a couple of days for you to get access to the badge. Do you have rrs?

[gloomy ravine]

Yes you can

[dull laurel]

I dont have rrs

do i need that downloaded?

[paper pasture]

Yes

Go to rec.ner then creator

Or account settings

Then it should say RRS

then download it

But do you have access to it?

[dull laurel]

DO i need to sign in with unity?

[dull laurel]

Would you like to help me out with it? @paper pasture

[paper pasture]

sent me a friend request

[dull laurel]

On rec room?

[paper pasture]

on here

[dull laurel]

Done

[halcyon vault]

Indeed it is possible actually Crystal already did it many times lol

[paper pasture]

And honestly in my opinion she doesn’t deserve it. I don’t think you should be allowed to boost your dorm room especially self boosting it because it takes away the actual reason of boosting.

Room boosts are meant to be used for supporting your favourite rooms, not self boosting a dorm room so you can get a free custom badge. You have to earn it

I don’t think crystal got around 3k+ people boost her dorm

[halcyon vault]

Lol it was just funny to see that she Boosted her own Dorm plus Supporting your own room works and Boost your own is completely fine (She made her own Badge that had a Nice Message on it :3)

[halcyon vault]

I know that lol

[paper pasture]

And that’s fine. I’m not hating or anything I just don’t think you should be able to self boost rooms or boost your dorm

Almost 3k boosts on a dorm and I’m guessing she spent tokens on buying boosts

I wonder how much money she spent to get on the board 3 times

[halcyon vault]

I respect that but it's a great way to support yourself if you just ain't that popular and can't get attraction another way to get attraction is through room boosters

[paper pasture]

Getting featured or going around rec centers and asking people to check out your room is a starter

They should just add a limit towards room owners.

So they can only boost it 10 times while normal players can boost it as many times as they want

[halcyon vault]

And like I said it is sometimes hard to get featured or Going around rec centers yeah I'm not taking the chance of getting harassed or get slandered by a bunch of slurs

[paper pasture]

What if you’re a very known creator and you have millions of tokens to spend on boosts. You could easily just get 5k boosts

[paper pasture]

I understand but getting your room featured isn’t as special anymore

[halcyon vault]

Getting your room feature is still special but it is just a bit harder

[paper pasture]

Unfortunately that’s what rec room is today. All the nice people left due to the toxicity

[halcyon vault]

And this is why I'm mostly in #rrplus-lounge

[paper pasture]

Idk about “harder” the recent featured rooms I’ve seen don’t really deserve to be featured. RR has featured multiple cash grab rooms 😔

[halcyon vault]

Lol I seen that

[paper pasture]

RR+ lounge? I would go in there but I don’t trust rec rooms security to put in my email etc

[paper pasture]

So that’s what I mean by trying to get your room featured. It’s not really special anymore since RR has gotten lazy with it

[halcyon vault]

Understandable I really go in there because the people there or more nicer others will likely see your room that you made And give good about it feedback Which I mostly like

[gloomy ravine]

She bought the tokens for the boosts, just to prove to a dev that she could

[paper pasture]

That’s.. really sad

[halcyon vault]

It's not really the lack of people doing it it's mostly the people who actually has to sign up a form to get the room feature

[gloomy ravine]

It was pretty funny imo

[halcyon vault]

It was lol ✌️❤️‍🩹😔

[paper pasture]

Eh idk. “Proving” to a dev that you can spend the most money on a dorm? 😭

[gloomy ravine]

Proving she could make a badge for her dorm. Specifically getting a dorm on the leaderboard

[halcyon vault]

I did worse (almost a million spend last year)

[gloomy ravine]

She initially asked if they could make a door to her dorm if she did

[paper pasture]

Maybe the 1st time it was funny but getting on there 2 more times wasn’t needed.

[paper pasture]

On what twin

[halcyon vault]

Just rec room alone Don't get me started with the platforms

[gloomy ravine]

But she needed two more badges

[paper pasture]

Hmm I don’t know man, I’m not hating I just don’t like how you can boost your dorm and get custom badges. I’m pretty sure she flexed that she was the first to do as well which I don’t like either 😓

[halcyon vault]

At the moment right now two people have did it

[gloomy ravine]

Well tbf others who did it did become unoriginal atp

[paper pasture]

I just don’t like how you can self-boost rooms and dorm rooms in Rec Room. It completely defeats the purpose of room boosts and the boost board. Boosting is supposed to show support, not just how much money someone is willing to spend to push their own room to the top to “prove a point” to the devs. Maybe the first time it was kind of funny, but getting featured multiple times like this just gets old and takes away other people’s chances to be on the board. No hate toward Crystal at all, but spending that much money just to get these badges is honestly a bit concerning and feels more like a bad investment and a waste of money. I think Rec Room should limit how much a room owner can boost their own room, maybe to 10–20 boosts, while other players can boost it as much as they want. And for dorm rooms, you shouldn’t be able to boost them at all, since they’re private rooms

[fading bay]

[clear rock]

yes you can, but its going to get pricey. you have to be top 3 on the leaderboard in the rec center. I do believe rr will reach out directly regarding creating your own badge and uploading it

[paper pasture]

They do, I’m pretty sure they DM you everything you need to know about it

[fading bay]

I might as well answer this, yes its 100% possible but be ready to spend alot (i spent 1.1m to do it for 3 weeks in a row)
