Eh, I get more gems. Better than nothing.
Just my two gold, but achievement systems are a waste of time. I have played and quit several games partially due to the introduction of a silly I am better than you acheesement system. I am not playing as part of a competition.
I have no problem with the new achievement program. For some it will be an exciting new thing to do. For others it will not. If it doesn't interest you, just ignore it For me? I don't know. I will be in the middle I think. Just as long as it doesn't screw up anything and create bugs.

If something can go wrong, it will.
I like it. Something else to do and more rewards. For newer players like me, I expect it to keep me busy for a while. Not sure how long it might keep veterans busy. Test server starts me off at 29%, and that character is limited in some respects. Speaking of test, I see I can transfer e-mail resources right into storage instead of the star. Nice.
I still have quests I haven't done because I don't want to waste the resources, I'm sure as hell not wasting them on achievements! I saw some achievements on the test server that I'm never doing. I'm not changing the way I play. I've been playing for 2 1/2 years and I'm only level 46. Where is the island skill tree? We're finally getting a storehouse button in our emails. I don't know why the stuff in the email can't automatically go in to the storehouse like trades do!
Really...This is the best you can do you need to hire people who actually play the game to give you suggestions on what would make this game better.
I would personally appreciate it if you would stop making the area under the avatar bigger and bigger. Soon, I won't be able to see how little space is left to work with on my island thanks to useless buttons that i will never press most likely. If a friend can see your island, I'm pretty sure they can see your achievements. I have an idea, how about moving where the pop-up messages start at the top of the screen down just enough so that we can mouseover the population and see what units we have without waiting. I also see no use in this other than to cause embarrassment maybe to someone for not participating by adding useless skills or even worse, by not spending gems. Maybe i don't want my achievements on public display especially after years of playing with no such system in place... how about a checkbox to give us the option of turning it off if we don't want it and put it all in the drop-down list out of sight. Thanks but i'm not excited by this at all.
