How the "beans" work

[heWhoWearsAshes]

How do you get the little french presses and espresso makers instead of beans, how many posts do I need?

The amount of posts needed to change the titles and graphics is likely to changer very shortly after anyone who might think they've worked it out and posts it

It's not important - don't worry about it - you'll not find out

That's disappointing, I want coffee maker icons.

It's pretty random to be honest.

As you post/help they change.....

Ironically, it just changed after I posted my last post.

Alright then.
First, be very helpful here.
Then use your helpfulness to your advantage and apply for Ubuntu membership.
Be kind to the forum staff, to the point they invite you to join the staff.
Be good to the forum council et al, to where they ask you to be an admin.
Get your coffee maker.
Then watch as the system changes again, and you get something else.

AFAICT admins are the only ones with coffee makers, in the latest incarnation of the bean scheme.

But as Elfy says, things change, so don't count on that to be the case if you push to get the desired goal.

After 25 posts, you can create a coffeemaker avatar - if you reeeeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaalllllllly want one...
(unless we change it again...)

I really dooooooooo. I thiiiiiiiiinnnk I might just do that.

But that means that I'm gonna have to make a bunch of meaningless conversion first.

What should we talk about?

Go to the general support section and try and actually help people with their issues.
It's amazing how many beans you'll get just by trying to solve a problem for someone.

Warnings and infractions for bean-hunting???
