Players with a linked forum account will now receive an extra weekly four bonus points as long as they post at least once a week. The bonus points will be awarded every Monday at 1:00 GT and expire around 7 days after they are awarded. To reiterate: this bonus can only be earned once per week.

This is designed to be a relatively minor bonus that encourages more forum activity. We hope to see some new faces on the forums as players become aware of the bonus.

To see if you've posted this week, go here: http://www.earthempires.com/bonuses

I've already posted for this week, but this is a pretty inventive bonus. I think there are a lot of people who think about posting, but need a little more incentive and this will definitely help.

Perhaps something like 4 points for 1 post and 8 points for 10 posts for the past week will encourage more activity?

Would be similar as you have to post once a week to get it ;)
Not posting on AT as much because Maki/Steeps gave back some of my forums on GHQ. RIP my decade long blog, my blog even had replies from people who are no longer with us :(.

People will never be able to see which current countries are yours. However, you can allow them to see your previous countries through account preferences:

"Game Profile Privacy
Allow other players to see previous countries
Allow other players to see you on leaderboards
Allow other players to see your past countries statuses"

Checking the first or third option will allow people to see your old countries.

I just realized there's a typo there.

You can only get it once per week. It's awarded on a predetermined schedule.
