Would it be possible to implement some kind of system that keeps track of member achievement progress since becoming a member? I know my score isn't that high, but I'm sure it's close to doubled since I joined a year ago. I was thinking something along the lines of a gamercard that is activated once you join, then updates on a monthly or quarterly basis. For existing members, the tracking of progress could begin on the date it was implemented. I think it would be pretty cool and useful to show that the site manages to help you progress your gamerscore. Also, there could be monthly or quarterly prizes/awards for: biggest jump since joining, highest quarterly gains, highest yearly gains, etc. Either way, just wanted to throw that out there

It's ok, a bit complicated and most of all i don't think it's really needed.
Not really needed and it would be hard to do that to 61,000 other members to so i think this is going to get turned down.
If you want recognition for increasing your gamerscore then sign up for the GSL that is run by the site, you might not get a shiny prize but you can show that you managed to unlock a ridiculous amount of achievements with help from the site.
And I don't think that the site needs a way to show that it helps with someone's gamerscore, look how many legit members have gotten 100k as of late. Plus with all of the resources that the site has you would expect it to do more than nothing to your gamerscore since you can't go backwards without cheating.
It is an interesting idea, but you could just do it with a forum thread full of the gamercards of the people who want to partake next to a screenshot of their gamercard when they sign up to it. Turning it into a contest sounds too similar to the GSL though, minus teams, plus prizes. And if a lot of people want to join in to get stuff then the staff/organisers will need to police it a fair bit to stop and skullduggery.

Right after I submitted the post, I immediately thought of how similar it is to the gamerscore league. I explained it in a way that's somewhat confusing, but I just meant for it to be a tool where people can track their progress that don't compete in GSL. Thanks for the feedback guys.
