User blog comment:Dharden/Response from Wikia about achievements/@comment-261184-20101026170922

Dahrden and Lost - seems like we had an issue with communication on this campaign - I am VERY sorry it caught you by surprise. EA was very excited about sponsoring badges on The Sims Wiki - and while I understand that you did not have achievements enabled - we would like to see what you think of them after 3 weeks, then if you do not feel like the increased the right types of contribution, we can take them off. Again, I am very sorry this was a surprise for you all...
