User blog comment:Sarah Manley/Announcing Achievements - Edit your way to the top/@comment-82555-20100814170339

I proposed to the Mass Effect Fanon community to add the achievements and there was a strong demand for them. Also, we've come up with a short boosting policy with can cause punishment to users that make too many fluff posts. I see this add on as a high risk/high reward add-on, hence the amount of time it takes to make sure its as close to perfect as it can be.
