Does anyone know if there is an add on that can do what the old vB Experience did?
https://www.vbulletin.org/forum/showthread.php?t=199556

It was amazing with vB3, and really created a dynamic award giving environment. It was based on user's activities, i.e how often they were posting, how often they received infractions, edited posts, ended conversations, thanked one another, welcomed members, etc., etc. It was very customization as well.

So far, I am having a hard time finding its equivilant or near equivialint for Xenforo. Any ideas or suggestions? Please let me know. Thanks!
 
Perhaps "DragonByte Credits" (https://xenforo.com/community/resources/dbtech-dragonbyte-credits.5871/) can do something like this. Not sure.

It would work to a degree.

DBCredits would let you award points based on many (or maybe all) of the same criteria as vBExp. You could even create different kinds of points like 'crystals' and 'coins' to go toward different rewards -- for instance, awarding crystals for activity, and granting access to special forums or upgrades to a new user group with heightened permission, and awarding coins for milestones of some kind, and giving trophies at different thresholds. I myself have gone a little overboard with 18 different currencies.

XF2 can do user promotions and trophies based on the DBCredits. However, it doesn't include the shop functionality that comes bundled in vBExp. There is a separate add-on, Dragonbyte Shop, that can do all of that. The two add-ons as a pair are fantastic together, but it's just important to be aware that you do need both of them to really get that same effect. I've put both add-ons through a lot (with somewhere in the neighborhood of 500 shop items), and they are quite customizable and can take some abuse, but be sure to do your research before committing.

There are various shop and credit add-ons out already that I don't have experience with, also.
 
If you install @Xon 's & Brogan 's addons below then this will add a lot of criteria and you will be able to give out many trophies for the relating user activities.

With this you can go much further than vbexperience allowed you to. You can even count how many reports were submitted against the user or how many good reports the user submitted.

Milano's Master badge addon gives users levels and a way to showcase Trophy badges on profile and in posts.
I combine it with my reputation system which adds dozens of criteria for post quality and reputation activity.
I have 160 Trophies to replace vbexperience awards.
