Would be nifty if you could have a bad based on sucessful sales milestones on the main site. Could give people an idea of the scale other users are at.

We have one on Store pages like this, but the only difference is a rating must be left by the buyer…

Just got the “Acquainted” badge. Great ideas!

Fair, im sure it would be a hassle to link them to the forum, but would be neat if they could be linked.

Then again. Perhaps its better left as is. It kinda keeps members on an even playing field. Dont get intimidated having a discussion with larger scale breeders, can just talk like people.

Maybe you get a badge when new users create a topic containing the “introductions” tab? Encourage the newbies on here even more to introduce themselves and be more active.

Yep it was a little intimidating at first for me, but then as I got more comfortable posting. Now I just post like I am talking to anyone else :slight_smile:

I agree. Having levels of “status” would discourage some people from asking questions because they are afraid of being proved wrong by someone with more experience. That is how I see it. :man_shrugging:t4:

I thought that already was one… seems not.
Lets see if its doable.

the issue i am having with automated ones is that Discourse (the forums software) has changed it security settings to stop auto badges being easy to make… and I’m not yet smart enough to understand what the hell I need to do… not yet
